Lagos residents punished by soldiers after coming out to exercise despite lockdown order (photo)

Some residents of Gbagada in Lagos state got punished by soldiers after they came out en masse to exercise despite the lock down order given by the government.

The gym enthusiasts who have flouted the stay-at-home order for some days now, eventually met their embarrassing fate after soldiers stormed their workout session to intensify it by punishing them.

Photo of the fitness enthusiasts on the expressway circulated online – Twitter user @Mr_JAGss shared a video of residents of Lagos state exercising on the now deserted Ikorodu road.

He wrote,

The Security Agencies making the process easier people that want to keep fit and exercise their body this morning on Gbagada Express …. Kudos to them .. A Healthy Lagos is a SAFE Lagos.
