MAY 29: IGP WARNS POLITICIANS AND POLITICAL PARTIES AGAINST ATTEMPT TO TRUNCATE INAUGURATION
The Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Usman Alkali Baba has enunciated the inalienable of the May 29 inauguration following a warning he sounded to politicians and political parties that may plan to truncate the ceremonial day.
The police chief on Monday 15th May 2023 added that police throughout the federation have been working closely with the national intelligence community to stop any incident that will affect the country’s security interests.
His statement reads.
“Following the successful conclusion of the 2023 General elections, it has been observed that some major political actors that the outcome did not favour, have been issuing public threats that are directed at instigating actions to frustrate the Presidential inauguration ceremony on 29th May 2023.
“The Nigeria Police and the national intelligence community have been closely monitoring the activities of these political elites as well as other elements who have formed themselves into unpatriotic brands whose only fantasy, in recent times, is to subvert our national security interests.
“In so doing, they seem to be bent on deploying extra-judicial and undemocratic means to truncate our democratic heritage in the advancement of their narrow personal political considerations.”
