Nationwide Protest:  Obey Court Order, Metropolitan Square Remains ‘Designated Venue’, CP Olaiya Tells Kwarans

Kwara state police command has urged residents of the State of Harmony, who are planning to stage a protest in the state, to attach importance to an existing court order that has restricted such an activity to the Metropolitan Square , Asa Dam Road, Ilorin.

Spokesperson for  the Kwara  state police command, Ejire-Adeyemi Toun, a Deputy Superintendent of Police ,  in a statement made available to   Team@orientactualmags.com  on Friday night noted that this has become important in order to maintain public order and safety.

‘The Kwara state Police Command wishes to inform the public about the ongoing protests and the planned #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria gathering. It is evident that the protests in states like Niger, Borno, Kano, and Yobe have been hijacked, resulting in loss of lives and property. Citizens wishing to exercise their franchise must comply with the recent court ruling in the state.

We urge all groups to follow the court ruling, which stipulates that protests must take place at the Metropolitan Square along Asa-Dam Road. The Post Office is not an approved location for such gatherings.

We also request that protest leaders meet with the Commissioner of Police to strategize on security measures and ensure the safety of all participants.

Your cooperation is essential towards maintaining public order and safety’ the statement added–Team@orientactualmags.com  Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
