Shiite Procession: Police Deploy Adequate Security in Abuja

Following trending social media messages that the El-Zakzaky Islamic Movement of Nigeria (IMN) is planning a major procession into the Federal Capital Territory, the FCT Police Command wishes to reassure members of the public that it has deployed both uniform and plain-clothe police operatives at strategic points to forestall any breakdown of law and order in the Federal Capital Territory.

Adequate security measures have also been put in place to protect lives and property and to ensure free flow of vehicular movement in and out of FCT. Members of the public are therefore enjoined to feel free to go about their lawful activities.

The Command seizes this medium to address member of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria on the need to be law abiding, and ensure they write and secure the appropriate clearance before embarking on any form of procession in FCT.
