BAUCHI STATE POLICE COMMAND PLACES ADEQUATE SECURITY AHEAD OF THE PROPOSED TUESDAY 27th AND 28th NATIONAL PROTEST BY NLC



.......As high octane patrols major parts of the city are placed in a bid to reassure citizens of the Command's unwavering commitment towards their safety ahead of the planned nationwide protests by the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) between 27th and 28th February 2024. The Command has taken into cognizance that every citizen has constitutional rights to peaceful protest, including legitimate Labour unions.


The protesters are strongly warned to ensure all processions are conducted within the guidance of the law, as the command will exercise its full powers to ensure no rights of other citizens are violated.


 However, adequate security measures would be placed to ensure hitched-free conduct of the procession across the State. 


In this regard, the Command in conjunction with relevant security agencies in the state will not hesitate to subdue any individual or groups that may willfully hide behind these peaceful protests to cause havoc and breach of public peace and safety in the State.


Similarly, any attempt by reckless miscreants or hoodlums to leverage these processions will be resisted in every manner humanely possible within the ambit of the law. 


Lastly, the good people of Bauchi State are advised to go about their lawful businesses without any fear of harassment or molestation and as well, "say something, if you see something, for the Police to immediately do something."


To this end, the Commissioner of Police CP Auwal Musa Mohammed, psc urged parents and guardians to caution their children and wards not to be used as cannon-fodders to jeopardize the relatively enduring peace being enjoyed in the State.
