Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, former
Finance Minister, on Sunday, applauded the Nigerian youth for their
‘resourcefulness and courage’ as the End SARS protest continues across the
country.
Okonjo-Iweala also called on the
youths to join hands together for a positive outcome through a one Nigeria
approach.
According to her, it was powerful
for them to let their voices be heard peacefully.
Recall that the
protests for the scrapping of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, SARS, unit of the
police have intensified despite government’s announcement of the disbandment of
the operation.
Currently, captions such as, “end
bad government in Nigeria; end bad governance; end police brutality; Justice
for Jimoh Isaiq; restructure Nigeria; reform the Nigeria Police”, among others
are trending on social media platforms and also appearing on placards on the
streets to indicate that the protest has gradually shifted from its original
purpose.
Okonjo-Iweala, in a tweet on
Twitter wrote: “I applaud the resourcefulness and courage of Nigerian youth in
the #EndSARS.
“Powerful to let your voices be
heard peacefully. Let’s join hands for a positive outcome through a One Nigeria
approach.”
