He said the 720 suspects were arrested, with various weapons and substances suspected to be Indian hemp and cocaine.
Adejobi stated that the Lagos Command re-launched its anti-crime strategies to curb crimes and criminality across the state “In its bid to solidify the security architecture of the state.

“Also, some items suspected to have been looted from various shopping outlets within the state during the recent EndSARS violence were found within the suspected criminals.”
Adejobi also noted that the Commissioner of Police in the state, Hakeem Odumosu, had earlier warned and directed police officers and men to move against lawlessness and criminality in the state.
“Odumosu affirmed the zeal of the command to sustain the operations, even beyond the yuletide season.
“The police chief commended the officers and men of the command for the successful operations, while he urged them to be at alert for more operations across the state,” the police spokesman said.
