The Edo Police Command pledged to support and safeguard people who join the protests against bad governance in the state.
The Commissioner of Police, CP Funsho Adegboye, stated that protesters will be provided with sachet water and sweets if they protest peacefully.
While speaking to the press on Wednesday evening, he stated that it is the right of citizens to protest, and that residents who do not choose to engage in the protest would be free to go about their daily business.
He said; “We had a meeting with some leaders of the protest, we have agreed that it must be peaceful, we are going to protect them but there will be no blocking of roads or violence.
“Police will protect and support them with sachet water and sweet. We have agreed that they will only occupy the Kings square which is the venue of the protest”.
The Commissioner advised troublemakers to avoid protests, adding they would be dealt with sternly.
