Police in Anambra State have warned that they will not sit back and watch anyone break the law if protesters decide to take the law into their hands.
The Commissioner of Police in Anambra State, CP Obiano Itam, stated this in a press release made available to journalists in Anambra and signed by the state police spokesperson, SP Tochukwu Ikenga. The CP was obviously reacting to plans to protest the hardship in Nigeria on June 12, which is Democracy Day.
It said: 'Democracy Day, a day mapped out to commemorate the restoration of democracy in the country. The police envisage that the protest is capable of grounding all commercial activities and obstructing the free flow of traffic in the state. 'We note the right of individuals or groups to advocate for any interest, but we emphasize the importance of adherence to the existing laws governing such activities.
