One Million Boys: We’ve joined forces with soldiers, others – Lagos police

Few days Ago a Terrorist Group "One Million Boys" issued Letter to some communities in Lagos state.

In the letter, the group threatened to carry out armed robbery attacks in some listed neighbourhoods.

Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Mr Hakeem Odumosu, has urged residents in the state to disregard letters addressed to their communities by a gang of armed robbers popularly known as One Million Boys.

He said the letters were written to Lagos communities to create fear and panic.

In his Statement: “Today, we have come out in a full show of force to give you an assurance that there’s nothing like ‘One Million Boys’; they are criminals.

“Be assured that the government is out to protect you. The police are out there to guarantee your safety and we are doing this in conjunction with soldiers, Navy, Air Force and Department of State Services operatives.

“So, we are asking you not to panic. Go about your lawful engagements. When it is time for you to sleep, you should sleep without nurturing the fear that some faceless criminal gangs will come and attack you. Faceless people are sending letters around only to put fears in your mind. We will respond swiftly to any attack and we shall be patrolling around the state.”
