Buhari to IGP: Provide Security For Every Nigerian

President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday directed the Inspector-General of Police, Mr Mohammed Adamu to provide security for every Nigerian.

He disclosed this to State House correspondents when he met the President at the Aso Villa in Abuja.

He hinted that  the President directed him to provide security for every Nigerian.

The IGP, Adamu had earlier briefed President Muhammadu Buhari on the activities of members of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN).

President Buhari summoned the police boss following the latest in a series of protests by the Shiites in the nation’s capital.

At least three of the protests by the Shiite group since the beginning of July have turned violent, leading to clashes with police personnel and people injured from both sides.

The protesters are calling on the Federal Government to release their leader, Ibrahim Elzakzaky, who was taken into custody since 2015.

Monday’s protest, also turned violent as members of the Shiite group clashed with police.

Shortly after the incident, the police, in a statement, asked Nigerians to remain calm while residents of Abuja were advised to avoid the affected areas.
