Another round of #EndSARS protest will worsen our economy- Yahaya Bello tells youths - Edoman - 12-07-2020 Another round of #EndSARS protest will worsen our economy- Yahaya Bello tells Nigerian youths Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi state has appealed to Nigerian youths not to embark on another round of #EndSARS protest as such actions will only worsen the economy and aggravate the poverty situation in the country. Governor Bello said this in a statewide broadcast on Sunday, December 6, while reacting to reports that protesters are returning to the streets in some cities to demonstrate against police brutality. The #EndSARS protests which started on October 8, took a sad turn when hoodlums hijacked it, carried out massive looting, destruction of private and public properties as well as killing of some persons including security agents. Governor Bello said another round of demonstrations will not be only premature but also counterproductive. He appealed to Nigerian youths to consolidate on the gains of the protest by fully participating in various judicial panels of inquiry set up by the various state governments. Quote:“In the face of all this and as the first sitting governor who publicly upheld the rights of our youths to protest against police brutality, I cannot in all good conscience agree that the time is ripe for another round of #EndSARS protests,” he said. |
