“It is time you have to stand with the people (protesters) who can speak for you because the law you serve is against you.

 

“So stand with the civilians, stand with the people because the guns you are holding today you will drop it and another person will take over from you. That is why you have to use it well and not kill us.”

 

In response to the protesters, the security operatives immediately turned their back and walked away.
