A Federal High Court in Ikoyi, Lagos State, southwest
Nigeria, presided over by Justice Mohammed Idris, has nullified the restriction
of movement during the monthly environmental sanitation in the state.
The policy of the Lagos State Government restricts citizens
to their homes for three hours between 7am and 10am every last Saturday of the
month.
The court held that there is no law in force in Lagos State
by which any citizen could be kept indoors, compulsorily.
