Ogun State Police Command says a video making rounds online is not a new incident but footage from 2024 being reposted with false captions. The Command clarified that the clip is outdated and deliberately misrepresented to mislead residents and spark fear. It advised the public to ignore the video, stop sharing unverified security content, and rely on official updates to avoid needless panic.
According to the Command, circulating old and misleading materials only creates anxiety and disrupts the work of security agencies committed to keeping Ogun peaceful and secure. Police reassured residents that the state remains calm and safe, with sustained patrols and proactive measures in place to protect lives and property. Lawful activities should continue without fear, while credible information is shared through the right channels.
