#Endbadgovernance protest: Tinubu orders crackdown on bearers of Russian flag
President Bola Tinubu has ordered crack down on those flying Russian flag during the ongoing #endbadgovernance’ protests in the country.
Gen. Christopher Musa, the Chief of Defence Staff, disclosed this to journalists on Monday at the end of security council meeting with President Tinubu at the Aso Rock presidential villa.
CDS Musa told journalists that the security chiefs briefed the President on the current security situation in the country during the meeting.
He added that the briefing was necessitated by the ongoing nationwide protests, which resulted into violence in some states.
Initially, when the protest started they said it was a peaceful protest but we have realised that there are individuals that are willing to take advantage of it to cause mayhem.
And we can see clearly what has happened since it has commenced. Criminals have taken over with a lot of looting taking place, stealing and all sorts happening.
He said the situation became worrisome as foreign flags were flown within the sovereignty of Nigeria, and that was totally unacceptable.
We are warning in clear terms and the President has also said we should convey this, that we will not accept anybody, any individual flying any foreign flag in Nigeria.
That is a treasonable offence, and it will be viewed and treated as such. So, nobody should allow himself to be used by any individual.
