Adegboruwa calls for suspension of protests

Earlier in the day, human rights lawyer, Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa, called for the immediate suspension of the #EndBadGovernance protests, citing the loss of life and property.

Adegboruwa, one of the lawyers for the ‘Take It Back Movement’, expressed regret that the protests had resulted in violence, which was not the organizers’ intention.

The senior advocate of Nigeria (SAN) attributed the violence to “fifth columnists and angry persons” who had infiltrated the protests and appealed to the protesters to withdraw and suspend the demonstrations to allow for dialogue with the government.

Sowore quashed the statement and said it was “issued by the Bola Tinubu regime officials and despicable security agencies in Abuja in a desperate attempt to demoralise Nigerians”.
