A ban has been placed by the Kaduna State Police Command on all forms of celebrations and rallies whether for or against the results of the concluded presidential and National Assembly elections in the state, stating that a deliberate act to violate the ban will be meted with consequences.

The ban takes effect immediately and spreads across the 23 local government areas in the state.

The ban came on the back of the Independent National Electoral Commission, declaring the All Progressives Congress Presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, as the winner of the presidential election.

The ban was disclosed in a statement titled, ‘General election: Ban on celebrations and rallies by political party supporters,’ issued in Kaduna on Wednesday.

The statement read, “The Nigeria Police Force, Kaduna State Command wishes to notify the general public that all forms of celebrations and rallies by political party supporters for or against winners/losers of the just concluded Presidential and National Assembly elections has been banned in the State.”

According to the state Police Public Relations Officer, Muhammad Jalige, any deliberate act to violate the ban or breakdown of law and order under any guise in the state.

Jalige said, “Any deliberate act to violate the ban or cause breakdown of law and order under whatever guise, will face the full wrath of the law as security agencies have been deployed and directed to ensure full enforcement.

“All persons with intent to violate the order are warned to desist from that, as the Command in collaboration with other sister agencies are fully prepared to deal decisively with such persons in accordance with extant laws.


It also warned that its operatives in collaboration with other sister security agencies would deal ruthlessly with any individual or group that attempted to cause trouble in the state.

The command urged residents not to relent in supporting security agencies in delivering their mandates of securing lives and properties in the state.
