The Ekiti State Police Command issues a warning to youths against being used for political violence and digital misconduct that can disrupt peace and security. Commissioner of Police Michael Falade delivers the caution during an event in Ado-Ekiti, urging young people to avoid actions that contribute to instability.
The police message covers both physical and online threats. Outlets report that the warning targets political thuggery, violence and cult-related activity, as well as cyberbullying, misinformation, and cybercrime. In both accounts, the police position is that youths should not be recruited or exploited by political actors or other groups for harmful activities.
While the outlets describe the same core warning, they emphasize different aspects of the youth risks. Vanguard highlights “political, digital thuggery” and related misinformation and peace-disrupting conduct. The Punch likewise focuses on shunning thuggery, violence, cultism, and cybercrime, pairing the warning with a call to pursue productive engagements. The overall thrust is consistent across sources: the police urge youths to steer clear of conduct that undermines public safety.
