The suspects identified as Julius Osimirin aged 43, Isiaka Kabiru aged 16 and Ajewole Ajugba aged 42 were arrested at about 12:23 p.m. on Abatti Street, Shasha where they were setting the stage for their carnival.

The arrest is sequel to the directives of the Commissioner of Police, CP Adegoke Fayoade, to the Commander, Rapid Response Squad (RRS), CSP Olayinka Egbeyemi to bring to book any person found attempting to break these laws.

CP Fayoade had earlier met with organizers of the carnival, advising them on the need to get a hall for their carnival and stay away from shutting down streets or disturbing public peace.
