Police Command on Saturday justified the decision by its men to disperse protesters at the Gudu Area of the nation's capital, Abuja

Mariam said, “The FCT Police Command on Saturday, June 12, 2021, successfully restored calm at Apo-Gudu axis after professionally dispersing a protest by some members of the proscribed Islamic Movement of Nigeria – Shiites and others targeted at inciting public disturbance and breaching public peace.

“Consequently, the action of the command was necessitated by the concerns of some agitated residents. However, no arrest was made. “In view of the above, the command wishes to state that it is committed to ensuring that FCT residents enjoy a hitch-free Democracy Day celebration and will not hesitate to bring to book every person or entity that attempts to breach the peace or cause a breakdown of law and order in the Federal Capital Territory.

“The command implores residents to remain calm and law-abiding while reaffirming its unwavering commitment to the protection of lives and property within the FCT.”

Can someone who supports this government decision tell me why a tiny segment of the Muslim ummah is constituting a 'nuisance' in the eyes of the government. They just want their leader released after almost six years in captivity. Is that too much to ask?

You dispersed anti Buhari protesters but shielded the pro buhari protesters. This shows how myopic and shallow minded the PoliceNG is, bcos the June12Protests is demanding good welfare and better retirement packages for you. Your pay master won't tell you this. WeMove✊
