Alimosho residents have finally decided to join concerned youths in Lagos for the three-day protest against the alleged brutality and extra-judicial killings by operatives of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad of the Nigeria Police Force.
In the early hours of Thursday, there had been a clarion call on social media for a protest in Alimosho, scheduled to start from Ikotun and directed towards the Alimosho Local Government Secretariat at Egbeda-Akowonjo. However, there seemed to be a change in plan as the protest didn't hold as planned.

Later in the day, new information reaching AlimoshoToday stated that the protest has been rescheduled for Saturday after people clamoured for it since Alimosho is the biggest local government in Lagos.

On the social media platform monitored by AlimoshoToday, the scheduled protest is gaining popularity and a platform has been created for interested persons.
The rendezvous for the #EndSars protest in Alimosho is Gate Bus-Stop, by Forte Oil, Mosan-Okunola, Alimosho. The protesters intend to meet with the Area Commander of Area P Command Headquarters, Abesan.
The protest is part of the push for the reform of the police system to put an end to the extra-judicial activities of the law enforcement agency.

Similarly, celebrities and artistes like Falz, Tiwa Savage, Runtown, P-Square, Tacha and many others joined in a peaceful protest against the same burning issue yesterday on Lagos Island.
