Chairman, Itire-Ikate Local Council Development Area (LCDA), Dr Ahmed Apatira, has urged residents not to partake in the protest.
He said protests could be hijacked by hoodlums and lead to violence and unrest.
Apatira spoke yesterday during a Stakeholders Forum, where food was distributed to some residents.
The council boss implored the people to reconsider the consequences of protest before embarking on it.
He added that no outsider would be allowed to protest and cause crisis in the community

The council boss said governments were making efforts to improve the standards of living of the people.
“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration has taken significant economic measures including direct monthly allocation to local government which aimed to ensure grassroots development and provide much needed financial relief; the recent approval of N70,000 Minimum Wage is a testament to the government’s commitment to workers living standards,” he added.
