    Police Surprise Protesters In Lagos, Provide Them With Biscuits, Drinks

    on

    Members of the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, who on Tuesday, began their two-day protest against hunger in the land with a massive turnout of both protesters and the police, received an unusual positive treatment from the law enforcement agents.

    In a surprise twist to police – civil society engagements, the police provided the protesters with drinks and biscuits, a fact acknowledged by NLC state chairman, Mrs Funmi Sessi.

    “Three gbosa to the commissioner of police. They gave us water, they protected us and they gave us drinks,” Mrs Sessi said and her voice was captured on Arise TV as the anti-hunger protest drew to an end near the Lagos State House of Assembly complex as she gave a notice of another protest tomorrow.

    The police commissioner in the state reportedly ordered a truck of bottled water and cartons of biscuits which were distributed to refresh the protesters.

    The protesters both in Lagos and Abuja called for the return of fuel subsidy among other demands.
