The Nigeria Police has instructed officers across the nation to prepare for the scheduled nationwide protest on Monday, April 7, 2025, by the Take-It-Back Movement and other civil society groups.
Police authorities revealed that operatives have been placed on high alert and in strategic positions ahead of Monday’s demonstration.
The organizers of the protest disclosed that they would converge at the National Assembly in Abuja.
According to Juwon Sanyaolu, the National Coordinator of the Take-It-Back Movement, everyone involved is prepared for any form of repression by security agencies.
“We are undeterred by police attempts to repress the protest, and we are prepared to challenge any possible repression that may arise in the course of our peaceful protest tomorrow.
“What we saw during the #EndBadGovernance protests was a disgrace and affront to the democratic rights of citizens. Many were killed, and minors were arrested.
“All things being equal, the IG should have left that seat, and the president should not still be in office,” he stated.
