Earlier, in an interview on Newscentral, the interviewer mentioned that the police had brutalized one of their reporters. As promised, a review of the available footage, including visuals aired by the station itself, has confirmed that the reporter’s encounter did not involve police personnel, as initially alleged.
The Nigeria Police Force, under the leadership of IGP Kayode Egbetokun, PhD, NPM remains committed to professionalism, accountability, and respect for the rule of law in all engagements. The safety of citizens and journalists continues to be a top priority.
Equally, journalists are enjoined to avoid disinforming members of the public and casting aspersions on the integrity of the Nigeria Police Force.

Post about the court order (it was posted 2 days ago).

POLICE URGE PROTEST GROUPS TO RESPECT COURT ORDER; WARN AGAINST HIJACKERS — PUNITIVE MEASURES AWAIT OFFENDERS
The Nigeria Police Force reaffirms its unwavering commitment to upholding the rule of law and maintaining public peace in accordance with constitutional provisions. This follows the subsisting Order of the Federal High Court, Abuja Division, given on 17th October, 2025, by Honourable Justice M.G. Umar, in Suit No. FHC/ABJ/CS/2202/2025 — Federal Republic of Nigeria v. Omoyele Sowore & 4 others. The Order restrains the respondents and any other persons or groups acting under their instruction from staging protests within and around Aso Rock Villa and its environs, the National Assembly Complex, Force Headquarters, the Court of Appeal, Eagle Square and Shehu Shagari Way.
In deference to the authority of the Court and in line with the constitutional mandate of the Police to enforce law and order, the Force hereby calls on all groups — whether in support of or opposed to the ongoing agitation for the release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu — to adhere strictly to the provisions of the court order. The directive remains binding and enforceable pending further judicial proceedings.
The Nigeria Police Force recognises and respects the rights of citizens to peaceful assembly and expression. However, such rights must be exercised responsibly and within the limits of the law, particularly where public safety, national security, and the rights of other citizens are concerned. The Court’s intervention is therefore a safeguard, not a suppression, of constitutional freedoms.
Accordingly, all intending protesters and counter-protest groups are strongly advised to avoid restricted areas and to refrain from any act capable of provoking confrontation or disturbing public order. The Force will ensure the free flow of traffic, protection of lives and property, and security of all law-abiding citizens.
Any person or group that uses protests as cover to incite violence, carry or use offensive weapons, vandalise public or private property, kidnap, or engage in acts likely to cause loss of life or serious injury will be dealt with decisively. Offenders will be arrested, subjected to full investigation, and prosecuted under relevant criminal laws — including laws relating to public order, violent conduct and terrorism where applicable. Those who incite others via social media or other platforms should note that digital evidence will be used in investigations and prosecutions.
The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, Ph.D., NPM, has directed the FCT Commissioner of Police and relevant operational commands to ensure strict enforcement of the Court’s Order, maintain visible and strategic deployments across vulnerable locations, and ensure the safety of residents and lawful activities in the FCT.
All organisers and participants are therefore advised to: •Avoid the restricted areas specified by the Court; •Refrain from carrying weapons, engaging in provocative conduct, or encouraging others to breach the law; and •Channel grievances through the courts and other lawful avenues rather than the streets.
The Nigeria Police Force assures law-abiding Nigerians that adequate security arrangements have been made to protect lives and property. Non-participants should go about their lawful businesses without fear. Anyone found to be in breach of the Court’s Order or in contempt of the law will be arrested and prosecuted.

CORRECTION: Police teargas protesters attempting to approach Aso Villa in clear contravention of a court order restricting protesters from the Villa, National Assembly, Force Headquarters, Court of Appeal, Eagle Square and Shehu Shagari Way. We are the country’s foremost law enforcement agency. We carried out our mandate.
And we did NOT block the road but cleared it after it was blocked by the protesters. This is to enable other Nigerians easy passage to their respective destinations.
The Lagos State Police Command wishes to clarify that Mr. Declan Ihekaire, who staged a lone protest in the Iyana Ipaja area, was not detained.
Teargas were fired by police and riot personnel to disperse miscreants and hoodlums who attempted to hijack the protest and cause mayhem among innocent people in the area.
He was cautioned on the need to operate within the confines of the law and not instigate violence and disturbance of the peace in the City of Lagos. He was subsequently allowed to go.
Show of Force Exercise led by the Commissioner of Police throughout Lagos for confidence building in the populace is still ongoing. The State is calm and peaceful, and everyone is going about their lawful activities and other business engagements peacefully.
