Police takes over Afrikan Shrine to prevent #EndSARS meeting

Iexclusive News Nigeria reports that police has restricted movement in and out of the Afrikan Shrine to prevent any meeting on #EndSARS from taking place there.

Seun, one of the sons of Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, Afro Beats maestro, had earlier sent out flyers announcing a meeting on the lessons from #EndSARS protests.

But the police later wrote to the Anikulapo family, demanding that the meeting must not hold at the shrine, a relaxation spot.

Seun had shared snapshots of the letter on social media.

The letter reads:

“You are hereby warned to suspend such gathering as any infraction that may emerge from this gathering will be tagged a deliberate action to sabotage the transition and restoration of the peace in Lagos State by the Lagos State Government and the Nigeria Police Force,”

On Tuesday, mobile policemen mounted strategic locations across the shrine while their vans were parked right in front of the relaxation spot
