He further promised to convey the request of the protesters to President Muhammadu Buhari, some of which are increment in police salary as well as justice for those killed by the police during the protest.

Sanwo-Olu had on Monday addressed the protesters who thronged the Lekki Toll Gate.

All across the length and breadth of Lagos on Tuesday, the #EndSARS protest continues as protesters blocked the roads and make life unbearable for motorists.
