Meanwhile, the Police Command at the Federal Capital Territory, (FCT), later released a statement, debunking the report.
According to spokesperson of the Command, ASP Mariam Yusuf, “contrary to the speculation, Police Operatives professionally restored calm at the Unity Fountain following attempts by a group of protesters to incite public disturbance.
“The protesters who went on the ramapage were resisted by Police Operatives in order to prevent them from causing a breakdown of law and order. There is no record of such incident as at the time of this release.”
Below are photos of Sowore now at home after being discharged from the hospital where he was treated for the injury he sustained.
