“We know those who used their press power to fight the Boko Haram and ISWAP insurgencies. We know those who stood against the planned pogroms in Southern Kaduna. And we know those who organized and publicized the help-bringing #NorthIsBleeding. “The three fingers of Oppression parties can go on and on with their jamboree rallies. But the Talakawas are rallying Door-To-Door, and streets-to-streets for the New Hope of the Masses. The days of the people cannot be postponed anymore. This is why EndSARS must be greatly respected and justice must be ensured for all victims nationally.
“I also call on all governors detaining victims unjustly. Release these great comrades now! This is why our Governorship candidate in Lagos, the gentle and suave Akeem Olayiwola, will implement all the letters of the Justice Okuwobi-led Lagos State Judicial Panel on EndSARS and other related matters of police brutality immediately we are declared, insha Allah, come 2023!“By legal and moral standards, what happened in Lekki is not just abuse of human rights, it is a grave assault on humanity.
