The Human rights lawyer, Femi Falana, has asked government officials to engage the aggrieved Nigerian youths amid the ongoing nationwide #EndBadGovernance protests.
During an unterview on Channels Television on Thursday, Falana said the government must stop mobilising youths, traditional rulers and some emergency organisations to disrupt protests.
He said the government should identify and engage the aggrieved protesters.
He also called on police operatives to provide adequate security cover for the protesters nationwide.
We must also learn to stop mobilising people to disrupt rallies, we must stop mobilising traditional rulers and some emergency organisations to say, ‘we are pulling out of the protests.’
“The government must now begin to identify those who are genuinely aggrieved and then begin to engage them, ‘what are your complaint?’ So that people will have a sense of belonging.”
