Mega rally: CP warns NLC to stay away from Kaduna

The Kaduna State police commissioner, Mr Agybole Abeh, has warned the organisers of the mega rally slated for Thursday in the state to stay away.
This was even as he said the police cannot guarantee their security and safety.
It will be recalled that the national leadership of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has summoned all its national officers as well as executives of its branches across the country to Kaduna on Thursday.
The idea of the meeting it was gathered was to stage a mega rally in protest of the state government resolve to disengage over 20,000 teachers who have failed the competency test organised by the state government.
The governor had on several occasions expressed his determination to revive the ailing education sector, saying he would not mortgage the future of its two million primary school pupils.
The police boss counseled the union chiefs to note that the state had just come out of series of crises, warning, they should stay away from the state.
‘ We cannot guarantee your safety. We advised you to find a way of reaching and engaging with the relevant authorities in solving whatever grievances, you might be having.
Abeh assured the citizens of the state of the readiness of the police to protect their lives and property, calling on them to go about their normal activities without fear.
“We will deploy our men to protect public buildings and ensure that they are no break down of law and order, he stressed.
