The Lagos State Police Command has claimed they are not responsible for the death of a 14-year-old beverage seller at Ojota on Saturday.
The body of a teenage girl with blood-stained clothes and a hole on her chest, suggested a possible hit by a stray bullet during the Oodua Nation mega rally held at Freedom Park. The police had in the course of dispersing the agitators, fired gunshots into the air, shot teargas canisters and also used water cannons.
But the command in a statement by spokesman, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, denied its operatives fired live bullets at the rally, describing the allegation as a calculated attempt to create confusion and fears in the minds of the good people of Lagos State and the country at large.
