BREAKING: Police storm King’s College, seal off entrance amid parents’ protest
Police officers and vehicles had cordoned off roads leading to the college’s main gate, restricting access to the premises.
After several days of protests by parents, policemen from different formations across Lagos State on Wednesday took over the premises of King’s College, Onikan, Lagos.
The development came a day after parents reportedly had a serious confrontation with police officers and members of the college’s Old Boys Association.
On Wednesday, the protesting parents were no longer seen around the main entrance of the school.
Police officers and vehicles had cordoned off roads leading to the college’s main gate, restricting access to the premises.
The reason for the parents’ protest and the latest police action was not immediately stated in the report.
Vehicles coming from Tafawa Balewa end, wanting to connect to the CMS bus stop, were diverted to other routes.
As at 11 am, some members of the Old Boys Association of the college, including the National President, Ibrahim Kassim Imam, and former President of the Nigerian Bar Association, NBA, Mr Olumide Akpata, have arrived at the college for a meeting of the association to deliberate on the way forward regarding the concession of the college to the association by the Federal Government.
The issue has led to serious protest from some quarters.
