The second wave of End SARS protests has commenced in Lagos, Ibadan, and Abuja. Ibadan is the capital of Oyo State.
Demonstrators have returned to Lekki toll plaza, the scene of the military shooting currently under investigation.
Teams of policemen and soldiers have been positioned strategically to forestall a breakdown of law and order.
Security has been heightened at other flashpoints in Lagos, Nigeria’s most populated city.
On Sunday, the police reiterated its ban on gatherings, warning that fresh protests might be hijacked by unscrupulous elements.
The End SARS protests initially commenced on October 8 in Lagos, and the youth-led outcry spread to other states.
For nearly two weeks, agitators demanded an end to police brutality. Their resilience forced the police to scrap the notorious unit, the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS).
But the protest went amiss from October 21, one day after the Lekki shooting. Hoodlums, in many states, targeted attacks on residences and businesses.
Several public and private property were looted or set on fire.
According to the federal government, the civil disorder, which lasted about a week, caused the death of 100 civilians and security operatives.
