    ***Torchlights Individuals Sponsored To Trigger Crisis In Nigeria

    By Miriam Humbe

    The Nigeria Police Force has issued a stern warning against the display of foreign flags during protests and calls for a military takeover.

    In a statement signed on Tuesday by the Force Public Relations Officer (FPRO), ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi on behalf of the Inspector General of Police, IGP Kayode Egbetokun, the Police categorized such actions as treasonable felonies under Nigerian law.

    This followed a wave of violent protests, particularly in Bauchi, Kano, Kaduna, and Katsina States, where protesters brandished foreign flags.

    Ongoing investigations revealed that protest organizers in the states mentioned above were luring innocent children into participating in these unpatriotic and criminal acts.

    Over ninety suspects have been arrested, including tailors who sewed the flags and their sponsors.

    The NPF said efforts were underway to apprehend others who sponsored the production of the flags and fuelled these treasonable acts.

    The display of foreign flags and calls for a military takeover constitutes a clear treasonable offense, revealing the motives of protest organizers to destabilize Nigeria’s democratic government.

    This aligns with actionable intelligence on the tactics of fifth columnists and non-state actors exploiting economic hardship protests to further their nefarious goals.

    Tensions from the ongoing protests have eased following President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s address on August 4, 2024.

    However, some groups persist in subversive campaigns in the form of violent and unlawful protests, characterized by the destruction of public infrastructure and private property, looting, display of foreign flags, and calls for a military takeover.

    These individuals and groups will be treated as subversive agents and charged accordingly.

    The Inspector General of Police, IGP Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, has directed Deputy Inspectors General of Police for the Northwest and Northeast zones, DIGs Bala Ciroma, and Bello Makwashi, to take charge of operations in the States within the two geo-political zones where subversive campaigns are ongoing under the guise of protests.

    They are tasked with stabilizing the situation and preventing further violence in the affected states.

    The Nigeria Police Force reiterated that the use of foreign flags during protests and openly calling for a military takeover of the government is a capital offense under Nigerian law.

    The Police therefore, cautioned Nigerian youths to be wary of individuals and groups turning protests into business ventures, funded by local or foreign sponsors aiming to destabilize the country.

    Evidence showed that these sponsors had paid significant sums to exploit the hardship protests, brainwashing and misleading innocent children into aiding this campaign against the government.

    The Nigeria Police Force saluted Nigerians who had refused to participate in and indeed spoke out against the ill-timed protest out of sheer patriotism and belief in the government’s genuine efforts to put the country on the path of economic recovery and growth.

    The NPF said: “We also acknowledge the patriotism of those who peacefully participated in the protests but withdrew when they turned violent, and those who heeded the President’s call to embrace dialogue by withdrawing from the protests.

    “The NPF remains committed to maintaining peace, protecting the nation’s heritage, and working with the public to ensure the safety and stability of Nigeria.”
