MUYIWA ADEJOBI, the Force Public Relations Officer has said that he was one of those who attended the candlelight and night of tribute held for Ilerioluwa Aloba (professionally known as MohBad) in Lagos last Thursday.
The Assistant Commissioner of Police, however, said the conduct of some of those who attended the event did not serve the purpose.
In a tweet on his X handle, ACP Adejobi said inasmuch as candlelight processions are a right, they should be done with decorum.
He tweeted: “None could recognise me, I disguised.
“But I intentionally attended to see things for myself and have an opinion about the whole thing.
“I gathered some intelligence there yesterday.
“Sincerely, many guys are our problem.
“You dey mourn, u con dey smoke, dey hit or attack people, dey drive reckless, etc.
“May his soul rest in peace.
“While I commend the organisers of the Lagos procession for their steadfastness and understanding.
“I hope others will emulate them.
“It’s reasonable to end all processions at the latest 7 pm.
“Candlelight procession is a rite and must be purposeful.”
