The Department of State Services (DSS) has appealed for the suspension of a planned nationwide protest by sections of the organised labour, citing concerns over potential unrest and violence.

Peter Afunanya, the spokesperson of the secret police, emphasized the need for dialogue and negotiation between the government and labour leaders to address economic grievances effectively.

In a statement issued in Abuja, Afunanya acknowledged the legitimate right of the labour movement to protest but urged restraint in the interest of maintaining peace and public order.

He expressed apprehension that the protest could exacerbate tensions across the country and potentially be exploited by elements seeking to incite violence.

Afunanya highlighted ongoing efforts by governments at all levels to alleviate economic challenges, urging citizens to trust in the authorities’ commitment to addressing these issues. He cautioned against resorting to violence, emphasizing the need for peaceful dialogue and collaboration to resolve grievances.

The DSS spokesperson warned against the manipulation of youths by individuals seeking to exploit existing fault lines in society, urging parents and guardians to guide their children away from activities that could jeopardize public safety.

Furthermore, Afunanya called on all sectors of society, including political parties, religious and traditional institutions, civil society organizations, and non-governmental bodies, to refrain from violence and divisive rhetoric. He emphasized the importance of unity and cooperation in navigating challenging times.
