The organizers of the ongoing nationwide protests against bad governance have escalated their demands, calling for the immediate removal of Inspector General of Police (IGP) Kayode Egbetokun from office. This demand follows the killing of peaceful protesters across the country, with the organizers citing the need for accountability and justice.
The #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria committee made this demand during a candlelight symposium held in Lagos, where they honored protesters who lost their lives during the demonstrations. The committee has declared three days of mourning for the victims and has been vocal about the need for change.
With the 10-day protests coming to an end, the organizers are intensifying their demands, citing the reported killing of at least 21 protesters by security forces. Comrade Hassan Taiwo, a committee member, emphasized the urgent need for the IGP’s removal, highlighting the deaths of over 40 people nationwide. The protesters are determined to see change and are calling for the President to take action.
