The police on Monday sealed off the venue of a symposium where
Nobel Laureate, Wole Soyinka, Femi Falana (SAN) and other speakers
where to address the state of insecurity in the country.
The programme organised by a group known as Coalition for
Revolution (CORE) was billed to hold at 46, Ibijoke street, Oluyole
Bus-stop, Oregun, Lagos.
It has as its theme: “Democracy, State Repression and the State
of insecurity in Nigeria”.
However, when our correspondent showed up at the venue, police
vans were seen at strategic locations around the venue preventing
people from entering.
Falana, who is present at the venue, has been seen discussing
with the policemen, ostensibly to find out why they are being
prevented from holding the programme.
