Governor of Rivers Nyesom Wike has banned the planned #EndSARS protest billed to be staged in Port Harcourt tomorrow.
In a statement Monday night, by Paulinus Nsirim, information commissioner,
Wike announced that his government has banned all forms of protests throughout the State.
“Therefore, all proposed protests under #EndSars Campaign are hereby prohibited.
“Government took this decision because the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, had already scrapped the Special Anti-Robbery Squad.
“Therefore, there is no need for any form of protest against a Unit of the Police Force that no longer exists.
“Parents and Guardians are therefore advised to ensure that their children or wards do not violate this order.
