As the nationwide hunger protests entered the second day, human rights lawyer Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa has called on Nigerians to suspend the demonstrations immediately.
Adegboruwa made the plea in a statement on Friday while reacting to the losses recorded during the ongoing demonstrations, stating that it was not the goal of the protests.
He wrote: “I appeal to the protesters to withdraw themselves from their various protest grounds and to suspend the protests immediately and indefinitely, to give room for meaningful dialogue and engagement with the federal government.
“Given that the protests were said to have been hijacked by sponsored agents, it is necessary to avoid further losses and casualties.The organisers and their representatives should embrace dialogue.
“My sincere condolences to the employers and families of the security personnel and also to the protesters, praying to God to comfort them and to grant them the fortitude to bear the irreparable losses.”
