It was gathered that the exercise was part of the measures put in place to ensure that the march wasn’t hijacked by non-state actors.

Notable personalities among the protesters include a former national president of the NLC, Ayuba Wabba. As of the time of filing this report, no representative of the government had come out to meet the protesters.

Already, the Federal Ministry of Justice through its Permanent Secretary, Jeddy Agba, had filed a motion to prevent the protest.

The decision of the protesters to take a breather at the justice ministry might not be unconnected with the “war of words” between the ministry and the labour centre.
