The Lagos Planning Committee of the #EndBadGovernance protests has called off today’s rally due to continued attacks on peaceful protesters by suspected hoodlums allegedly under the watchful eyes of the police.
Hassan Soweto, a Coordinator of the protest and member of the Youth Rights Campaign, confirmed the decision to ait.live this Tuesday morning.
He alleged that protesters were attacked by miscreants in the presence of Police at the Ojota venue after yesterday’s protest, forcing the cancellation of today’s rally.
Soweto stated, “We don’t want to lose anybody. We are concerned about the safety of innocent protesters. Yesterday, miscreants attacked peaceful protesters with the Police watching, which is unacceptable. We will use today to hold meetings on how to proceed with the protest.
