    #EndBadGovernance: Sowore counters Adegboruwa, says nationwide protest continues

    Sowore

    Omoyele Sowore, Rights activist and Convener of the #RevolutionNow movement, has urged protesters to continue with the #EndBadGovernance protests nationwide.

    Recall that human rights lawyer Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa SAN had asked youths to immediately suspend the demonstrations.

    Adegboruwa is one of the lawyers of the Take It Back Movement, one of the groups participating in the nationwide protests.

    He regretted deaths and losses recorded during the demonstrations, saying it was not the goal of the protests.

    “I appeal to the protesters to withdraw themselves from their various protest grounds and to suspend the protests immediately and indefinitely, in order to give room for meaningful dialogue and engagement with the government,” Adegboruwa said in his statement.

    Reacting, Sowore in a statement on his X page (formerly Twitter) said: “Good day fellow conscious citizen “Thank you all for staying the course in the last 24 hours since the commencement of the #endbadgovernaceinnigeria REVOLT.

    “Note: the daily barricades, marches, rallies and people’s congresses should be intensified. We want to notify the public that in addition to street marches, those at home should engage in pot & pan protests against hunger, poverty and starvation.

    “Grab your pots& pans now and start banging them on your streets; take them with you to the roadside. Bang, bang, bang! #revolutions are “the festivals of the oppressed and the exploited!”
