The Ondo State Police Command has warned that it will not allow a repeat of the #EndSARS, under any guise or protest.
The Command’s Public Relations Officer, DSP Tee Leo-Ikoro, made this clear when speaking with NAN on Friday.
Leo-Ikoro stated that the police were battle-ready to forestall any breakdown of law and order by any individual or group.
He said that the command had deployed its men in all the nooks and crannies of the state to ensure that hoodlums did not hijack any possible protest.
According to him:
“we hear that some students are embarking on a peaceful protest on June 12. We want to believe that it will be peaceful, as they have said.
“We must, however, warn anyone with the intent of causing mayhem or engaging in any act that can lead to breakdown of law and order or destruction of government property to have a rethink.
‘We are fully on ground and we have deployed our men in all the nooks and crannies of the state to maintain law and order. Any violator will be severely dealt with in accordance with the law.
“We will not fold our arms and watch any protest, under whatever guise, to escalate to the level of the last #EndSARS protest. We will arrest and prosecute anyone found culpable,” Leo-Ikoro said.
