The Nigeria Police Force has dismissed reports claiming it sought a court order to halt the planned #FreeNnamdiKanuNow protest, describing the publication as false, misleading, and lacking journalistic balance.

Force Public Relations Officer, CSP Benjamin Hundeyin, made the clarification in a post on his X (formerly Twitter) account on Sunday, calling on media organizations to exercise greater responsibility and objectivity in their reporting.
“Our media houses need to be objective in their reports. At no point did the police approach the court to stop protests. It is an inalienable right of Nigerians,” Hundeyin stated.
He further debunked claims that a case on the alleged injunction had been adjourned to Tuesday, insisting that the report was entirely fabricated and based on a “one-sided narration, not investigative journalism.”
“It is sadly obvious the entire report is based on a one-sided narration, not investigative journalism,” he added.
The clarification followed a report by an online news outlet (not Vanguard), which alleged that the police had approached a court in Abuja seeking an order to stop the planned demonstrations.
Hundeyin reaffirmed that the Nigeria Police Force remains committed to upholding citizens’ constitutional rights, including peaceful assembly, while ensuring public order and national security across the country.
