….Cautions FCT youths against aligning with faceless protesters
As part of the peace building process in the Federal the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), in light of the planned anti-government protests, the FCT Minister, Barrister Ezenwo Nyesom Wike, on Saturday, July 27, 2024 held an interactive town hall meeting with residents of the FCT.
Addressing the residents during the Town Hall, the FCT Minister said it was organized to provide an avenue for dialogue with various stakeholders in the FCT and to give them the opportunity to air their grievances, rather than taking to the streets to protest against the government.
The Minister said protests would not solve any problem in the FCT but would rather create an opportunity for hooligans to take advantage of the situation to create a crisis.
He warned that the FCT Administration will not allow any protest that is geared towards destruction or to overthrow the government and cautioned residents against aligning with those he described as faceless protesters.
The Minister acknowledged that FCT residents have a constitutional right to protest, but cautioned that such protests must be done within the ambit of the law.
