Lagos State Governor, Babatunde Fashola has condemn the action of the military as disappointing. He stated that they are public servants paid with tax payers money, so shouldn't behave
in such a manner. He however said he's waiting for a formal report to know what
really transpired.
"I
spoke with the Brigadier General who said he was managing and controlling the
situation. Nothing I have yet is verified. I am waiting for a formal report
before we then can ventilate a position.
There is allegation that somebody who
was not supposed to be on the BRT route was on the BRT route. As far as I know
if something happens to you while you are conducting an unlawful act, it's a
criminal offense in its own sense.
Its really disappointing to put it mildly
that public servants, and that is what soldiers are, paid with tax payers money
will act in a manner that is being suggested here, and I say this being
suggested because I am waiting for official report to let me know really who
played what role, what happened, whether or not even the brigade commander has
been able to identify the people who were involved...but if it turns out to be
true, it would be a very very irresponsible conduct to put it very mildly"
he said.
