NO COMMISSIONER OF POLICE HAS BEEN POSTED TO LAGOS-POLICE.(PHOTO).#PRESS RELEASE.




The Lagos State Police Command has been inundated with requests for clarification on the status of the Commissioner of Police in the Command.

The Lagos State Police Command will keep residents and the good people of Lagos State updated whenever the need arises.
