     The Honourable Commissioner for Special Duties and Inter-Governmental Relations, Engr. Tayo Bamgbose-Martins, has warned warring factions at Ajah to desist from attacking government officials and allow peace to reign in the community.
Bamgbose-Martins, who gave the warning through a statement issued by his office on Saturday, expressed concern over the attitude of the warring factions, especially during this period of challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic in Lagos.
He said, "It was disheartening to read the report submitted by the Ag. Director Fire Services, Mrs. Magaret Adeseye on the incessant attacks on her staff while performing their official duties of saving the lives and property of Lagosians".
"The continuous land dispute between the Ajah-ljebu and the Ajah-llaje as well as the attacks on the firefighters affected the efforts of the Agency in putting out the fire that happened in Ajah early this morning", he revealed.
The Commissioner expressed the displeasure of government with the interference and attacks by these rival groups on Lagos State firemen and women during firefighting operations.
He stated that, "The unprovoked attacks led to the destruction of three bungalows and 15 shanty structures by the fire, which could have been prevented if the firefighters were not distracted and attacked by the lawless warring factions".
Warning that law enforcement officers have been directed to arrest anyone caught breaching the peace in Lagos, the Commissioner enjoined the warring factions to settle the dispute amicably and let peace reign rather than take laws into their hands.
Engr. Bamgbose-Martins wished Lagosians a happy Easter, advised residents to wash their hands regularly, maintain social distancing and comply with the stay-at-home directive of the Federal Government.
