    Massive arrest of face mask violators to begin in Lagos – Police

    The Lagos State Police Command has warned residents to ensure proper use of face masks or face arrest.

    The command said it has noticed that most residents have either jettisoned the directive or now place the masks beneath their chins as decoration.

    Commissioner of Police (CP) Hakeem Odumosu, in a chat with The Nation on Tuesday, urged Lagosians to own the battle against further spread of COVID-19 in the state.

    According to Odumosu, the police and other law enforcement agencies have the mandate of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu to arrest and prosecute violators of COVID-19 prevention protocols, adding that there will be no sacred cows in safeguarding public safety.

    Already, Odumosu said the command arrested 3,802 persons between April and June for not wearing face masks, adding that all the suspects were charged to court and sentenced accordingly.

    He said: “We have been enforcing the law. We have arrested 3,802 people for not using face masks and 12,900 suspects were held for flouting various COVID-19 guidelines since the commencement of the lockdown in April. They were all charged to court.

    “But we are going to be stricter now because we have noticed that some people do not wear at all while others hang it on their chins.

    That is not the purpose for the directive.

    “The face mask must be properly worn to cover the mouth and nose. That is how it will serve its purpose. Our people must know that the policy is for their safety and that of society.

    “As soon as you step out of your house into public space, you should have your face mask on, worn properly.

    It should be that way until you return to your private space. Wearing a face mask is compulsory just as social distancing is compulsory. You cannot do one and leave the other.

    “For emphasis, we will arrest those who put the face mask on their chins and also arrest those not wearing it.”

    Checks across Amuwo Odofin, Isolo, Egbe Idimu and Oshodi areas of the state showed that most residents were nonchalant about the use of face mask and social distancing.
