Police Command in Ondo State has warned against any activity that could disrupt peace in the state.
Some members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and some stakeholders are already planning series of protests against the ‘disappearance’ of Governor Rotimi Akeredolu.
It is believed Akeredolu is recuperating in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, after his medical leave in Germany.
CP Asabi Abiodun, Commissioner of Police in Ondo State, gave the warning in a statement by the command’s spokesperson, SP Olufunmilayo Odunlami-Omisanya, on Monday in Akure.
According to Abiodun, the attention of the command has been drawn to the intention of some persons to stir trouble in the state.
“The intelligence unit of the police through underground findings reported that the protests will be with a singular aim of causing chaos in the state.
“It could further lead to breakdown of law and order that will disrupt the activities of the good people of the state.
“The Police will take into cognisance, chapter four, section. 40, of the constitution to respect the rights of the people.
He, however, said that the command will not fold its hands and allow the rights of others to be trampled on, while upholding the rights of some others.
“I am using this opportunity to advise the people in the state not to be swayed by the action of a few, who want to raise unnecessary dust,” he said.
