He also accused the protest organizers of neglecting to provide the police with facts about the protests, such as the names of intended participants and rally routes.
According to Egbetokun, intelligence indicated that the protests were intended to incite violence.
He said: “The name given to the movement — ‘Take It Back Movement’ has far-reaching undemocratic, unconstitutional and illegal connotations.
“All officers and men of the Nigeria Police are hereby directed to act and deal decisively with any act of arson, intimidation or harassment of any citizen, threat to lives and properties, breach of peace and any act of criminality that may arise or flow from the planned protest in any part of the country.
“Perpetrators of any crime will be arrested and promptly prosecuted.”
