In a statement issued by the Commissioner for Works (Rural Roads) and Public Information, Mr Charles Aniagwu, the government described the incident as unacceptable, noting that it could have been avoided if the organisers had heeded police advice to shelve the proposed street march and hold their campaign at a designated venue.
