The spokesperson said the police would not fold its arm and watch hoodlums take a second advantage of the people.

 

“There was a distress call from MCC junction a few days ago and a tactical unit responded immediately.

“We want to use this medium to warn those who want to use this avenue as an opportunity to carry out a second #EndSars protest to be cautioned.

 

“We are alert, anyone caught will face the full wrath of the law. We are also mindful that law-abiding citizens have rights and they must be protected. We therefore, implore anyone who feel his rights were violated to approach our office accordingly.
