The Akwa Ibom State Police Command wishes to clarify that the directive contained in its press release concerning the rescheduling of previously approved political activities scheduled for 1st October 2026 does not affect schoolchildren and students participating in the Independence Day match-past at the stadium.
Parents, guardians, schools, teachers and members of the public are therefore advised not to be alarmed or misinterpret the earlier press release.
The Command remains committed to ensuring the safety and security of all residents and will continue to provide adequate security for lawful activities across the State.
Normal schoolchildren and students’ match-past activities at the stadium remain unaffected.
