Some residents in the Ore area of Ondo State, on Tuesday, staged a peaceful protest along the Ore-Benin expressway against the scarcity of naira notes and fuel ravaging the nation.

The Commissioner of Police in the state, Oyeyemi Oyediran, said “the Command is aware of the agendas of the residents to stage a protest in order to air their anger.”

“He appealed to residents of the state to desist from such activities. Security agents have been notified to ensure the safety of residents and apprehend offenders of the law.” Punch Metro reported that fuel and naira scarcity protests were staged in Oyo and Edo States over the last week, leading to the death of one protester in Ibadan, the capital of Oyo.

The persistent protests across the country have prompted some police commands such as Lagos, and Ondo to issue warning to residents to desist from any form of violence. The Central Bank of Nigeria December last year redesigned all major naira notes and the affected denominations are N100, N200, N500, and N1000.All rights reserved.
