Concerned about the potential risks of unrest, the Coalition of Yoruba Youth Leaders has called for the shelving of a planned nationwide protest set to take place in August. Dr Tolani Hassan, President-General of the coalition, issued a statement urging organizers to reconsider their course of action and explore alternative, nonviolent means to make the government aware of the economic hardship in the country.
The coalition’s President-General stressed that while the dire circumstances in Nigeria cannot be denied, the ENDSARS protest and its subsequent events highlight the dangers of taking to the streets in protest.
