Buhari signs Quarantine Order backing lockdown extension (PHOTO)
President Muhammadu Buhari, Monday night, signed the Quarantine Order.
The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Abuja, Lagos and Ogun States are affected.
But legal practitioners and critics condemned his “unilateral action”, arguing that it had to have legal backing.
Within 24 hours, Buhari signed the order and the matter was laid to rest.
This followed recent activities of hoodlums and street urchins.
Police Mobile Force (PMF) Units, Federal Special Anti-Robbery Squad (FSARS), Intelligence Response Team (IRT) and the Special Tactical Squad (STS) are now in the two states.
The Intervention Team is being coordinated by Deputy Inspector General of Police, DIG Peter Babatunde Ogunyanwo.
