The police will protect peaceful protesters who take part in the rallies organised by the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) to protest the rise in the cost of living, an official said on Monday.
While the police pledged to protect the protesters, the federal government again urged the NLC to cancel the protest.
Police spokesperson Muyiwa Adejobi said the police hierarchy has ordered commissioners of police in all states to ensure the protesters are protected.
