Let us reinterate that many with good intentions of better society who started the protest began it in peacefully manner, but along the line it was hijacked by some hoodlums, miscreants and very low minded people who launched an attack on our dear youths as well as the Governor Isiaka Gboyega Oyetola on Saturday, 17/10/2020.
This incident was unacceptable and undemocratic as we have earlier opined. We also want to condemn the action by some unscrupulous element blocking roads and collecting money from citizens, these people are bad heads who don’t understand the essence of the protest and see that as opportunity when the Governor imposed a 24hrs curfew on 21/10/2020 to perpetrate different agenda of their own.
