LAGOS STATE GOVERNMENT STATES REASONS WHY THE 70+ PEOPLE WERE DEPORTED TO ONITSHA

Last week, I brought you guys a report about the 70+ ''deportees '' from Lagos to Onitsha.( Check previous posts).
Amidst  controversies, the Lagos State Government stated that the 72 people ‘deported’  from to Onitsha, Anambra State last week constituted a nuisance.
According to the  Commissioner of Police (CP), Mr. Umaru Manko, the state government only rehabilitated and resettled the people.

The CP said: “What happened was that the state did rehabilitation and resettlement of the citizens from other states that came into the state and turned into destitute. After the state government had reformed them.

“After that, they indicated their interest of going back to their hometowns to be resettled. That was what happened. There wasn’t any deportation”.
