As the nationwide protests against economic hardship persist in various parts of the country, security forces have called on protesters and organisers to embrace President Bola Tinubu’s olive branch extended in his recent broadcast and to end their protests immediately to allow for dialogue. The protesters and the organisers have to end the violent protests to allow for peaceful dialogue. Those behind the protests and the protesters should end them and embrace dialogue. Despite these challenges, our security agencies made concerted and frantic efforts to restore calm to the affected areas, successfully re-establishing order. Furthermore, they intercepted 3,650,080 litres of stolen crude oil, 625,518 litres of illegally refined AGO, 450 litres of DPK, and 1,230 litres of PMS, among other items, demonstrating their relentless commitment to upholding national security.
