Yomi Shogunle in his reaction wrote that it would be okay if citizens could also communicate to police officers in the language they best understand, instead of speaking ‘Queen’s English’
He wrote
Nice one . Lagos State will be calm if police chiefs in #Lagos do more of this.
For now, don’t go and be speaking Queen’s English with them on the road. For proper understanding talk to them in Pidgin, another way to avoid kasala” he wrote
