The Inspector-General of Police , Mr Mohammed Adamu, on Tuesday said the Nigerian Police Force would never again tolerate any form of violent protests in the country .
He also observed that the # EndSARS protests were targeted at the Nigerian government , adding that the demands of the protesters had been met long ago by the government as it concerns the reformation of the Special Anti- Robbery Squad.

The IG spoke during his visit to the Ebonyi State Police COmmand on Tuesday .
He said , “ The protests were not against the police , but the Nigerian government . But the demands of the protesters were already met ; yet , they went about destroying national assets , without remorse.

“ The Nigerian Police will never again tolerate and accept that kind of violent protests in this country. Your protest must be peaceful and the moment it’ s becomes violent , you will be met with maximum force .

Speaking earlier, the Commissioner of Police in the state, Mr Phillip Maku , said the command did not have records of police brutality and extra- judicial killings, “ but it was badly hit, during the #EndSARS
protests .”

Maku said , “ About 20 vehicles were burnt, among which were five police operations vans . Five police officers were killed and about 14 sustained varying degrees of injury and five police stations were burnt .”

Hijacking the EndSars protest that led to looting of Government and private buildings all in the name of "hidden palliatives" is not good for future protests in this country and government is using it to claim that any further protests can be termed a coup. But I still believe we all have the right to a peaceful protest in this country.


Firstus la commentala..... wahala for who no dey understand Idoma Swahili

Who Will Not Tolerate Who?
If you cant tolerate a peacful protest, the people will not tolerate any police brutality again.

IG pt2 loading

Weyrey but accounts of the protested are still blocked, ppl are in prison on trumped charges, No Sars official has been brought to book, Police tried to take the governors to court because they don't want to be accountable. I could go on on

Police should be ready to deal with anyone that attempt to disturb the peace of others.no time for nonsense

See the way he is looking like we will not tolerate again, you won't tolerate protest as if Nigeria is your bedroom.

First of all who sent the hooligans?

Shebi we saw black jeep coming to pick up hooligans who attacked peaceful protesters

The protest was peaceful till your Lord and master's brought paid miscreants to cause chaos you are now making peaceful protesters look violent

Meanwhile you're yet to answer the notorious Lekki questions.


WHO KILLED THEM?

Shebi those police were claiming they're hungry.hungry never catch them.with all the years you served and defended your Brutish master's at the expense of people fighting for you wetin una gain? After they use you them dey dump you still una still no get sense.even retirement funds them no give you.see your barracks like place where them dey keep animals

Hungry never catch una,una go eat sand las las

Shioorrr

Even the Yoruba elders say if they say your teeth is smelling,you try to cover your mouth


If the people complain of bad governance and impunity try and at least pretend to be reasonable

But even peaceful protest una nor wan gree allow

Mtcheeeeew,
Nigeria police and shooting is like RICE and BEANS.

Even me I'll resist any protest that tends to infringe on my right of movement and economic survival.

I have my reservations for any protest for now most especially the timing and the confusion of purpose.

If you must protest then go to your respective state of origin to do so after all our Governors are worse in bad governance.

End insecurity protests is sha not violent

Government should listen to the demands of the people and do the needful instead of all this disgraceful threats

Empty talk. Like who among the police will come out. The ones in my area since after the protest resolved to be playing Ludo and drafts in front of their police station that was one of those that wasn't set ablaze. You take thief there they'll tell you we're not detaining at the moment, but don't kill him, just settle it properly.
Nigeria is a failed state. No body is controlling anybody.

Angry police

As if it's not the same police and army that do turn peaceful protests to violent protest...

Ndi ara

So any protest that take place now is violent? IG should better say, "Govt forbids any protest now"

Where are the violent protests holding?

We are going to advise Naija youths to look beyond protests as the only means of effecting social change in the country, they should begin to organise themselves to take part in the 2023 political process which could help them to effect the necessary changes in the country.

A better Nigeria is all we want.
God bless our darling country.
We will continue to believe in her.

Afamed:
Well said my comrade

God bless you Sir!
Keep up the positive spirit.
Slow and steady we will get to a better Nigeria.

Don't worry Mr IG, it won't be violent if ur boys are not because action n reaction goes hand in hand

But y'all can tolerate violent looting and violent Fulani herdsmen farm invasion abi?

Your 1st - to - 10th generation dia!

Dem dey allow peaceful one?

Nonsense.

See him ma5turbating all over the place on youth protest. Meanwhile the main crux of the matter "police brutality" is left unaddressed. How about him dedicating that same fervour to saying "we will no longer tolerate our officers' excesses of brutality"?

Buratai wannabe. So because burantashi says he will not tolerate coup now, you sef wan talk your own bah.

If you like, leave leprosy while hunting to treat ringworm (leave the main issue and go after shadows instead), these protests and uprisings that you fear and keep condemning will still replay whether you like it or not.

Sadistic lots.

Una nor get level jooooor!
