Mohbad: Reality TV Star, Tacha hails Police for dispersing protesters at Lekki

Tacha Akide, a Big Brother Naija star, has applauded the Nigerian police for deploying teargas to disperse a crowd at the Lekki Phase 1 toll gate, in Lagos State.

It could be recalled that reports emerged yesterday of an incident in which tear gas was deployed by the Lagos State Police in the Lekki area, resulting in injuries to some persons in procession of the late Singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, professionally known as Mohbad wno died on the 12th of September, 2023 at age 27 years.

Tacha, on her Instagram handle on Friday, urged people to avoid spreading inaccurate information about the situation because the organisers had granted the audience permission to leave after the performance ended.

She claimed that they stayed back, turning the demonstration that was meant to honour and seek justice for Mohbad into a protest, which prompted the Nigerian police to step in.

According to her,

“We can all agree that the organisers said you can all go home. Everybody saw when this event ended yesterday; you saw the celebrity leave; you saw everybody going, but no, some people decided to pack themselves to Lekki toll gate.

“If you want to protest, it’s not an issue, but a lot of people did not come out to protest. If you want to protest, fix a date, get the date approved by the goverment and then you can go out.

“Like stop changing the narrative; they started early and ended early; they told everybody to go home, but no, you people want to bring up issues where there is no issue.

“Kudos to the Nigerian police, you people tried, cause I saw video of them begging people to go home, but people want to hijack a candle-light procession for a brother of ours that died, and you want people to come online and support you, im sorry. ” [CONTINUE READING HERE]>>>>
