Police warn protesters against attempt to raze Jos Appeal Court complex

The Plateau State Police Command on Thursday, warned hoodlums against any attempt to burn down the Court of Appeal complex, Jos division.

The warning by the police came a day after alleged supporters of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), staged a protest around Maraban Jama’a and All Airport Junction in protest to the Appeal Court Judgements which sacked all PDP lawmakers in National Assembly from Plateau over lack of party structure.

Our correspondent reports that supporters of the PDP were on Wednesday, gathered around the strategic areas to register their dissatisfaction over the court judgements against their party.

The police in a statement by the spokesperson of the command, DSP Alabo Alfred, condemned the activities of the PDP supporters, saying they wouldn’t allow any unlawful protest in the state.

He said, “The police commissioner has observed with dismay the way and manner in which some aimless group of persons clustered and unlawfully blocked the public highway around Old Airport junction, Mararaban Jama’a and even attempted to set ablaze the Court of Appeal structure Jos in the name of protest against the judgement of the Court of Appeal, in respect of the Senatorial/House of Representatives that was delivered on Wednesday.

“In order to maintain peace, law and order in the state, the CP has warned individuals, or groups of persons protesting under any guise, whose reaction could truncate the peace currently being enjoyed in the state to desist from such actions or else, the police command will not hesitate to take decisive action against the perpetrators in accordance with the extant laws.

Hw continued, “The CP therefore warned parents, traditional/religious leaders, to warn their wards and subjects, to steer clear from such unlawful protests to avoid being apprehended by the law enforcement agencies.”

DSP Alabo, however, said the Commissioner advised all members of the public to maintain peace and go about their lawful businesses.
