The union disclosed this in a statement issued by the president, Alhaji Tajudeen Ibikunle Baruwa in Abuja.

He described the planned protest as a campaign of calumny against the leadership of the union aimed at causing confusion and foment trouble.

He said those sponsoring the protest are not members of the union but from Lagos, Osun and Ondo States Park Management Committees.

Baruwa said their plan is to infiltrate their ranks by wearing the union uniform and disguise as members to perpetrate their nefarious activities and attack the secretariat.

He said, “We have it on good authority that some disgruntled and unscrupulous elements have perfected a plan to mobilise some thugs and hoodlums from Lagos who are to put uniform of the Union as disguise to invade and stage a protest at our National Secretariat here in Abuja.

“I want to tell you that these people are not our members, they just want to cause violence in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), we are using this medium to call on the security agencies to rise up to the occasion and prevent the breakdown of law and order.”

Baruwa called on the plotters to desist forthwith just as he called on all the security agencies to rise up to the occasion and prevent possible breakdown of law and order in the city.

He said the union has remained peaceful over the years without any rancour but wondered how some people would just wake up to cause violence and puncture the serene atmosphere in the nation’s capital.
