The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command has issued a strict ban on any protests or processions by the Islamic Movement of Nigeria (IMN) in the nation's capital, Abuja. The IMN, also known as the Shi'ite group, had planned to hold a procession to mark the 2024 Islamic calendar day of Ashura, but the police have moved swiftly to prevent this from happening.
In a statement released on Monday night, the command’s spokesperson, Josephine Adeh, highlighted that past activities by the IMN have often led to significant disturbances in Abuja. These disruptions have resulted in chaos and anarchy, posing a threat to the peace and safety of residents. Adeh's statement underscored the police's determination to maintain order and prevent any form of public disorder.
The police command has issued a stern warning to members of the IMN and the general public. Any individual or group planning to engage in protests or processions in Abuja should desist, as the command will employ all legal means to stop or incapacitate anyone violating this ban. This move is part of the police's broader effort to ensure public safety and order in the capital.
The FCT Commissioner of Police, Benneth C. Igweh, reaffirmed the command’s commitment to upholding the rights of all citizens while ensuring their safety. The police are prepared to take all necessary measures to prevent any activities that threaten the well-being of the populace. This includes the use of legal force if necessary to maintain peace and security in Abuja.
For residents of Abuja, this ban means there will be no IMN-led processions or protests disrupting daily life. The police are focused on preventing any incidents that could lead to violence or anarchy, ensuring that the city remains safe for everyone.
The FCT Police Command’s decision to ban the IMN’s planned procession is a preventive measure aimed at maintaining peace and order in Abuja. By taking a firm stance, the police are working to protect the safety and well-being of all residents, demonstrating their unwavering commitment to law and order.
