The Delta State Police Command has warned individuals who have planned to launch a protest tomorrow, June 12, 2021, to mark the annulment of the 1993 general election purportedly won by the late MKO Abiola to desist from it.
In a statement signed by its spokesperson, DSP Bright Edafe said “the planned protest by some agitated members of the public on June 12, 2021, is being staged by criminally minded individuals, hiding under the guise of peaceful protest to cause havoc in the state.
“The command under the watch of CP Ari Muhammed Ali, will not allow any miscreant to distort the already existing peace in the state.
“Members of the public particularly residents of Delta state are to be aware that on no account should any group be seen, gathering or carrying a placard in the name of protest, as such will not be allowed in the state.
“Officers and men of the command have been placed on red alert and have been ordered to arrest and deal decisively with any criminally-minded elements who wish to go against this order.”
Edafe further added that “The Command is more than ever willing to go after any miscreant who might be found wanting.
“The Commissioner of Police is urging members of the public to partner with the police to see that those who try to bring disunity in the state and our dear nation be arrested and brought to book.”
“Also, it is pertinent to state that undercover police detectives have been deployed across the state for the purpose of arresting any person or persons staging any form of protest.”
“The command is committed to maintaining and sustaining the peace the state is currently enjoying,” he concluded.
