The Patriotism Awareness Forum (PAF) says officers and men of the Lagos State command of the Nigeria Police force led by the Commissioner of Police should be commended for their professionalism and diligence in foiling an attempt by the protesters of rage to invade Lagos streets to unleash their evil agenda on the people on Day 3 of the protest on Saturday.
According to PAF, Information gathered from the Gani Fawehinmi Freedom Park venue of the protest in Lagos, revealed that the protesters seeing how unpopular the protest has become decided to ratchet things up.
PAF adds that the decision was against rationality, logic and a subsisting court order.
The Police according to PAF averted a threat public peace by stopping the attempt to spill into the streets by the protesters of rage.
It adds that since the beginning of this unpopular threat to national peace and unity protest of rage organised by anti democratic elements and agents of destabilisation, it had watched the conduct of the Police with pride.
Going further the group in the release signed by its convener, Nelson Ekujumi, and Co-Convener, Peter Oprah, commends the Nigeria police throughout the country for the display of high level of professionalism and civility.
The group says this has ensured that in the exercise of the protesters right to protest, that the rights of other law abiding Nigerians who are not part of the protest of rage is not suppressed and violated.
It urges the police and other security agencies not to drop the baton in the remaining days of the protest.
The group says the unpopularity of the protest has seen it on Day 3 limited to just 2 or 3 states out of 36 and the FCT Abuja which further confirms that the protest is anti people and boycotted because the people have seen through the deceit.
It adds that the action is meant to take advantage of their situation and further worsen their economic conditions.
According to PAF, the Nigeria economy is undergoing some retooling and re-engineering for a better tomorrow by the President Bola Ahmed Tinubu administration and this repositioning of the economy has come with great inconveniences and sacrifices to be made by every member of the society.
PAF says the relentless efforts of the government to cushion the pains temporarily as well as plant the economy on solid grounds for a better tomorrow through policies and programmes should be commended.
It adds that these efforts require time and support from the citizenry for our collective good.
It plead with Nigerians to give the present administration more time, be patient, persevere and vigilant so that agents of destabilisation and anarchy are not allowed to railroad us into actions that are inimical to the peace, unity, progress and prosperity Of Nigeria.
It expresses optimism of witnessing prosperity and abundance for all Nigerians very soon.
PAF urges Nigerians to continue to shun the protest of rage as the protesters continue with their rage.
It concluded that focus should be on the peace, tranquility and prosperity of Nigeria as against any ill timed anti people protest.
