Lagos govt dismisses bandit attack rumour, explains school panic

The Lagos State Government appealed for calm after panic in the Ojokoro area over an alleged bandit attack at a school complex. The Education District I clarified it was a misunderstanding caused by a poorly communicated educational exercise at Ijaiye Ojokoro Junior College. A teacher used dramatic role-play to educate about security issues, leading students to believe there was a real attack. The Residents Association criticized the lack of communication that caused the panic.
