The Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Police Command has denied arresting one Mr Jide Oyekunle, a Photojournalist.
The Police Public Relations Officer in the FCT, SP Josephine Adeh, said this in a statement on Thursday in Abuja, adding that the photojournalist was rather taken away from an apparent unsafe environment during the ongoing protest.

“While the protest is ongoing, it remains the duty of the police to protect lives and property,” she said.
