Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, has issued a stern warning to Nigerians, particularly youths, against carrying or displaying flags of other countries during protests. He emphasized that such actions could have implications and urged citizens to reject foreign flags offered by agents of destabilization.
Egbetokun made these remarks during a press briefing on national security on Tuesday, amidst ongoing nationwide protests against economic hardship. He also announced that several suspects have been arrested in connection with the recent Russian flag incident and assured that they will face appropriate consequences.
The police boss’s warning aims to prevent external influences from exacerbating the country’s security challenges and to maintain national unity during times of unrest.
“We still have in Kano, Kaduna, Katsina and Bauchi states, a group of people who started subversive campaign, waving flags of other countries, and openly calling for military take over of government.“This is not a protest but an offense of treason. The Nigeria Police have arrested a number of them and they will be dealt with accordingly. They will be given the appropriate charges.
“I want to use this opportunity to warn our youth to desist from accepting foreign flags from agents of destabilization.
“It’s very very implicating for them to be seen with flags of other countries while on protest.”
