The Kogi State Government has imposed an indefinite ban on all rallies and public gatherings, citing credible intelligence reports of potential security breaches and unrest. This decision comes just a day before Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan was scheduled to hold a homecoming rally in her senatorial district. The government, led by Governor Usman Ododo, has taken these measures to prevent any breakdown of law and order, following recent violent incidents in the state, including a fishing-related crisis and communal clashes.
Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan’s rally, planned for Tuesday, has been thrown into uncertainty by this ban. The government has also suspended fishing activities in certain areas and deployed security forces to maintain peace. While the government acknowledges citizens’ constitutional rights to assemble, it prioritizes public safety in the face of security threats.
