The statement going further, stressed that “it is highly disconcerting that there have been attempts to interfere with the judicial process through threats and displays aimed at inciting public unrest.

“It is imperative to emphasize that the rule of law must prevail, and all arms of government must be allowed to carry out their functions without fear of intimidation or disruption. The sanctity of our institutions must be upheld at all times.

“Government is aware that some unscrupulous politicians are behind the plan to sponsor violence with the aim of disrupting the peace in the State to score cheap political points. We call on youths in the state not to allow themselves be used to perpetuate violence and cause crisis in the State.

The government also called on parents “to protect their children from being exploited by persons who want to disrupt peace for political gains. The Edo State Government will take all lawful actions against any individual or group found to be involved in activities that undermine the peace in the State.”

In conclusion, the government said that it is “in the best interest of all law-abiding citizens of our dear state that we enjoin everyone to join hands with the government in safeguarding the integrity of our institutions and preserving the peace and harmony of our beloved Edo State.”
