Coalition Lauds Muftwang Over Response To Plateau Protests

Jos, Aug. 6, 2024 (NAN), The Jos Coalition to End Bad Governance in Nigeria has lauded Governor Caleb Mutfwang for imposing a 24-hour curfew in the state capital and the management of the nationwide protests within Plateau State.

The coalition official, Mr Sam Odeh, gave the commendation in a statement made available to newsmen on Tuesday in Jos, the Plateau State capital

Odeh said that the curfew saved the state from the impending danger of possible infiltration of the protests by suspected hoodlums.

The official said that the coalition sensed the possible infiltration of the protesters ranks, and the coalition suspended street protests for two days.

“We received a warning from our security team that hoodlums had planned to exploit our peaceful protest to wreak havoc on the city.

“The coalition decided to suspend the protest after the meeting and resume after the relaxation of the curfew.

“The coalition would also hold a town hall meeting with citizens and stakeholders to solicit their support and involvement in the struggle.

“The coalition prides itself on being well-mannered and clear-headed; we cherish the success of our four-day peaceful protest and refuse to let hoodlums cause mayhem,“ he said.

He commended the Nigerian Police Force, DSS, Army, and all security volunteers for their cooperation and support.

“We also appreciate the Governor for declaring a 24-hour curfew in the Jos North and Bukuru metropolis,” said the official (NAN)
