The Police Command in Yobe has announced the arrest of 18 suspects in connection with Thursday’s violent protest and vandalism in Nguru, Potiskum, and Gashua towns.

The command’s spokesman, DSP Dungus Abdulkarim, revealed this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria on Friday in Damaturu.

He stated that the suspects, masquerading as peaceful protesters, had set fire to public buildings and stolen food items and empowerment equipment.

According to him, the suspects will be charged in court once the investigation is complete.

Abdulkarim noted that the state Commissioner of Police, Garba Ahmed, had cautioned against the destruction of government assets in any part of the state.

The spokesman reiterated the command’s readiness to enforce the dusk-to-dawn curfew, which was earlier imposed on the affected towns to maintain law and order.

“While recognising the right to peaceful assembly, the command stresses that this right is not absolute and must not infringe on the rights of others. Any criminal acts will be met with firm resistance.

“The command reiterates its commitment to upholding law and order and warns against violent protests that could lead to social and economic chaos,” he said.

The spokesman urged communities in the state to collaborate with the police to prevent further mayhem caused by miscreants.

Arrest them, not shoot at them. That is common sense. If a person commits a crime, the job of the police is to arrest such a person, not assassinate such a person.

Good.

Southwest have learnt from 2020

When Nnamdi Kanu was broadcasting for his ipob terrorist to burn down Lagos

We said it, no protest is peaceful.

There are different hidden agendas in protests. Some people want the protest to hold so the country can burn and disintegrate (Nothing concern them about good governance or bad governance, it is just an opportunity for them to see their evil and destructive agenda materialize)

You should know the people im talking about, they have been jumping everywhere like gorillas on heat celebrating every arson, vandalism and chaos.
You should know them, they are the anti-progress that will hunt for every BITTER news to celebrate and say “We told you so, you voted this, you voted tribalism “

Tinubu should hide his ugly face and address the protesters that's if he is healthy enough to do so
