In the interest of public safety, the FCT Police Command has advised the organizers to consider rescheduling the protest to prevent any breakdown of law and order and to protect lives, property, and the rights of other residents.

The Command remains committed to safeguarding all lawful activities and urges residents to continue cooperating with security agencies to keep the FCT peaceful and secure.
