Don't Bring Your Nefarious Protest to Lagos, APC Warns Biafra



*IPOB Plans Rally for December 16 and 17 in Lagos
Ahead of the purported rally by members of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, in parts of Lagos, the State chapter of the APC has warned anyone planning to hold a demonstration in the State under any umbrella to discontinue such, noting that the State will not take kindly to such a nefarious plan.

Lagos APC in a statement by its Publicity Secretary, Joe Igbokwe, said considering the heightened security challenges the state is facing, it will be foolhardy for any group to hide under the guise of protest to compromise the security of the state and warned that they won't be allowed to do such.

The so called IPOB had in a statement on its Facebook page disclosed that it will be embarking on a Lagos Mega Rally/Protest slated for Wednesday 16th and Thursday 17th December, 2015.

The statement read: “The Rally which will kick-off on the morning of Wednesday 16th Dec. 2015 will see us march from... axis of the city via Alaba Int’l market down to Mile 2 on the first day of the protest after making a stop over at Trade Fair Int’l market complex to intimate our people over there about the rally.

“The 2nd day of the rally will see us visiting several Embassies and High Commissions in Victoria Island and Ikoyi axis of city to deliver our protest letter as well as Amnesty Int’l and UN offices…”

“We shall be demanding for the unconditional release of director of Radio Biafra & TV, Nnamdi Kanu and all other Biafrans in the custody, as well as a right for self-determination during the March/Protest.”

Abeg na for Lagos their oga Nnamdi Kanu dey? Nawao!
Anyway, Lagos APC has warned that, “As a party that governs Lagos, it will be derelict of us to watch a group of politically-sponsored hoodlums tamper with the tight security system that has been effortlessly put in place by the state government to combat increasing crime rates in the state.”

“We cannot allow these hoodlums, sponsored by politicians that failed woefully in the last general election, to unleash mayhem on peace loving Lagosians so as to achieve dark political aims that run parallel to the interests of Lagosians.”

“We warn every market leader to desist from acts or plots meant to weaken or compromise the security of Lagos as the state will henceforth take measures to ensure that any market that allows itself to be used as grounds for acts that compromise the security of the state will be thoroughly scrutinized to ensure bad eggs are forced out of such markets.”
