A troubling video shows the moment a KAI officer lay bleeding on the ground after allegedly being attacked by Army officers.

Earlier today, October 8, “officers of the Lagos State Environmental Sanitation Corps (KAI), lawfully engaged in their duties in Yaba, were subjected to an unprovoked attack by personnel of the Nigerian Army allegedly under the directive of Major Adebiyi and Captain Gowon, Tokunbo Wahab, the Lagos State Commissioner for Environment and Water Resources disclosed.
Wahab condemned the brutal act by the army personnel and thanked the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General T. Lagbaja for intervening.

Sharing clips from the scene on X, he wrote: “We extend our sincere gratitude to the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General T. Lagbaja, and the Director of Chaplain Services, Lt. Col. T.E. Ogbonyomi, for their swift and decisive intervention in support of civil authorities. Their leadership has ensured that KAI officers continue to carry out their responsibilities without further disruption, reinforcing the principle that military personnel are subject to the authority of civil governance within their jurisdictions.

“We strongly condemn this unwarranted and unacceptable assault on officers executing their lawful duties. Moving forward, such acts will not be tolerated.

“We remain committed to ensuring a #CleanerLagos by upholding safety and sanitation standards across the state.”
