The Kaduna State Police Command has dismissed reports circulating online that #Endbadgovernance protesters in the state hijacked its Armored Personnel Carrier (APC).

A video of  protesters on top of the APC went viral on Monday, August 5, with claims that the protesters hijacked it from the police.

However, in a statement released on Monday night, the spokesperson of the command, ASP  Mansir Hassan, said the video in question depicts a situation where the driver of the APC was confronted by a large group of protesters.

‘’In the face of escalating tension, the driver made a professional and commendable decision to avoid the use of live ammunition. Instead, he employed a tactical maneuver to safely escape the scene, ensuring the safety of both the protesters and the officers involved. It is important to stress that at no point was the APC hijacked by hoodlums. The vehicle and its personnel remained under the control of the Kaduna State Police Command throughout the incident.” the statement read

Mansir added that the state Commissioner of Police CP AUDU ALI DABIGI, urges the good people of Kaduna to continue to abide by the law and maintain peace order.
