The Federal Government says it has met the five demands of
the End SARS protesters.
The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed made the
claims during a stakeholders’ meeting with members of the Broadcasting
Organisation of Nigeria (BON) in Abuja.
Mohammed said the End SARS protesters had demanded the
immediate release of all arrested protesters, justice for all deceased victims
of police brutality and appropriate compensation for their families.
He said the protesters also requested that an independent
body oversees the investigation and prosecution of all reports of police
misconduct within ten days and the increase of Police salary to adequately
compensate for the risks involved in protecting the lives and property of
citizens.
The minister noted that the Federal Government was not only
responsive to the demands of the End SARS protesters but was also very
responsible in its handling of their requests.
He said, “As you can see, ladies and gentlemen we met the
five demands.
“Some, like disbandment of SARS, were met immediately while
we kick-started the process of meeting others that cannot be done with an
immediate pronouncement.
“Despite this, the protest continued, and the demands kept
expanding, until the protest was hijacked, leading to unprecedented violence
characterized by killings, maiming, arson, looting etc.”
”The Federal Government was not only responsive but was also
very responsible in its handling of the demands of the End SARS protesters” He
claimed.
