Adejobi, in a statement issued in Abuja, said during the meeting, the IGP emphasized the importance of maintaining public order and safety during the planned protests. He acknowledged the group’s right to express their concerns through peaceful protests and reiterated the Police Force’s duty to facilitate such rights within the bounds of the law.
“To this end, the IGP has advised the Take It Back Movement, who have indicated their interest to protest, to engage with the respective state Police Commissioners to coordinate and plan the protests in a manner that ensures the safety of participants and the general public, while pre-empting any security challenges and ensuring that the protests proceed peacefully. Additionally, the IGP strongly advised against unplanned open and unnecessary processions due to the potential dangers they pose. He stressed that organizing and coordinating with the Police and other security agencies are essential steps to mitigate risks, protect the rights of all citizens, and protect the well-being of all involved.
