Protest: Organisers Reject IGP’s Proposal For Confined Protest by Bobloco: 6:09pm On Jul 30

The organisers of the planned #EndBadGovernance nationwide protest scheduled for August 1, on Tuesday rejected the Inspector General of Police, IGP, Kayode Egbetokun’s proposal for a confined protests.

Egbetokun had suggested confined protests in identified locations and advised against street rallies during a meeting with the organisers.

According to the IGP: “It is not advisable to go on street processions because as you are planning peaceful protests, some are planning violence.”

However, Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa, one of the lawyers for the Take It Back Movement, one of the groups organising the nationwide protest, rejected the IGP’s proposal.

Some Nigerians will on August 1 take to the streets to protest over the current hardship in the country.

Despite appeals from the federal and state governments, the organizers have vowed to hit the streets from August 1st to 10th.

These nincompoops have yet to realize that the fact that the protest could be hijacked by unscrupulous elements is all the more reason why people need to go out to protest the incompetence and ineptitude of the government in arresting the security situation in the country. undecided

How can a whole IGP of Police come out bold-faced to tell people not to protest for fear that criminal elements could take advance of the opportunity? Isn't that clear proof that you, as an IGP, have failed in your responsibilities? Why is the Police trying to push what is his responsibility on the people looking to freely exercise their right to protest? undecided

These people seem to be bent on their own downfall. You are allowed to protest but you want to be rallying round the city so you can loot again. I pity what will befall them. If anyone tries nonsense with people's properties this time, Lagos will rise against such.
We say no to protest of destruction

lol. The protest will be contained and there is nothing the insurrectionists can do about it. If they have no evil intentions, why are they against contained protest? They want to block major roads, Airports, and burn buildings like they did during Endsars? Na, we ain’t gonna allow you this time around.

IGP is trying to be reasonble with unreasonable people.. this Adegboruwa was part of those peddlling lies about massacre at Lekki tollgate, despite no proof or evidence.

I said it back then that failure to prosecute these guys for the attack on Lagos will give them boldness to organize another attack on Lagos.

The first attack was to discredit Asiwaju and ruin his chances of becoming President, this second one is to wreck havoc in an attempt to force him out of office.. Do the maths and see the level of carnage and destruction these destructive people are planning.

Confined protest? No wahala, they can surround all the government houses, local government offices, government secretariats and legislative complexes. Is that confined enough for the police?
