The Commissioner of Police of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Command, CP Bennett C. Igweh, PSC, mini, has urged natives and residents of the territory not to participate in the nationwide protest.
According to the Command’s Public Relations Officer, SP Josephine Adeh, “The appeal comes in response to a proposed nationwide protest on July 29, 2024, due to the economic hardship in the country.
“The command has made considerable efforts to protect lives and properties within the FCT, including the loss of some of its personnel.
“In addition, the protest could jeopardize some of our efforts and potentially lead to unrest and disruptions in the territory.
“We are deeply concerned about the security of law-abiding citizens and their properties. Therefore, we are making a heartfelt plea for residents not to partake in the protest.
“Furthermore, the government is addressing the economic challenges and is implementing measures to provide relief and support to the population. By refraining from participating in the protest, residents can help maintain peace and stability, allowing the government to focus on its initiatives aimed at alleviating the current hardships.”
