The Lagos State Police Command have accused a member of the House of Representatives, Honorable Shina Peller, of mobilizing 50 thugs to invade a police station.
The state Police Public Relations Officer, Bala Elkana, stated that Quilox, owned by Shina Peller, was fond of obstructing free flow of traffic.
When some cars were towed by authorities, Shina Peller is said to have led the thugs to forcefully recovered the cars.
“Up till 9am, the club was still on. They refused to remove their vehicles and Lagosians were seriously disturbed. Even Mr Governor was affected this morning. He had to manoeuvre his way through it. “This man had been talked to many times, but he refused to listen. This morning, our patrol vehicles towed three vehicles out of that place so that people could pass.
“This honourable mobilised over 50 thugs to attack Maroko Police Station to move those vehicles out. We had to send reinforcement from neighbouring stations before they were able to curtail the situation. That was how he was arrested with five of the thugs, while others escaped. We had to excerise a lot of restraints.
“They have been moved to the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department, Panti, where they are being investigated.”
