The Nigerian Police Force (NPF) on Friday, August 2, confined protesters to the Moshood Abiola Stadium, Abuja after chasing them from Berger junction.
The police blocked major roads leading to the MKO Abiola Stadium in the FCT in an attempt to prevent the peaceful protesters from marching towards different parts of Abuja.
The development is for the protesters to adhere to the court orders restricting the demonstrators to the stadium.
With this action, the protesters became furious and agitated, demanding to know why they must be restricted.
Similarly, many protesters at MKO Abiola Stadium in Abuja are getting agitated over police insistence that they must not leave the venue to another part of the city to protest.
The police’s refusal to allow the protesters to march beyond the stadium has led to several altercations between them and the police officers.
Consequently, the protesters have been blocking vehicles along highways around the stadium.
The police could also be seen stationed on the road, with their vehicles blocking the path the protesters might want to cross from the stadium into the city.
Military officers and policemen were spotted with heavy equipment at the stadium, to maintain any breakdown of law and order.
