Benjamin Hundeyin, the spokesperson of the Lagos police command, has warned Nigerians against challenging persons carrying arms.

In a series of posts on his X handle on Monday, Hundeyin cautioned that a shot once fired cannot be retrieved.

The Lagos police spokesperson also advised citizens against challenging armed individuals on how many people they can kill.

“Ladies and gentlemen, especially the woke generation, for your safety, please stop challenging/daring an armed person to shoot; asking an armed person, in a daring manner, how many people he/she can kill, or attempting to disarm an armed person,” Hundeyin wrote.

“It never pans out well, nowhere in the world does it. A shot once fired can never be retrieved. A life once lost can never be brought back.

“Remember, one with gun is majority. Note: This is not about armed police officers only. This is about any armed person, security forces or criminals.”
