The Lagos State Commissioner of Police (CP), Mr. Fatai Owoseni, has
disclosed that popular hip-hop star, Innocent Idibia, also known as
Tuface, would not be allowed to embark on any protest in the metropolis.
The
artiste recently announced his plan on his Instagram page, stating that
he intends to lead a nationwide protest on February 5. Tuface said he
would lead the protest against the Federal Government’s handling of the
economy among other issues.
Owoseni
said the police command was not ready for that kind of demonstration.
He stated that the police have received an intelligence report that
criminals were planning to hijack the process to wreak havoc on Lagos.
According
to him, no matter how good an intention is, hoodlums would always find a
way to harass, rob and attack innocent members of the public who may
wish to go about their lawful duties.
“We know that Tuface does
not have the capacity to contain such a crowd and we will not fold our
hands and watch while things go out of hand,” he stressed.
