The Lagos State Police Command says four police stations have been burnt by hoodlums in the state, during #EndSARS protest.

Hoodlums unleashed terror on police formations on Tuesday in a vent of anger, burning them and maiming innocent lives.

Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has declared 24-hour curfew on the state in a bid to curb the anarchy in the state.

A statement issued by Muyiwa Adejobi, Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Lagos State Police Command, said three police stations and one police outpost were burnt by the hoodlums.
