EndSARS: Senators condemn Lekki massacre, demand soldiers’ prosecution

THE Chairman, Senate Committee on Women Affairs, Betty Apiafi, and the immediate past Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, on Wednesday, condemned the killings of some youths by a group of soldiers at the Lekki area of Lagos on Tuesday evening.

She said, “How can a democratically elected government use the military to kill Nigerian citizens, the same people who elected us into positions, and the same people we swore to protect as enshrined in the Nigerian Constitution? Also, Ekweremadu also called for justice for everyone, who had fallen victim of government’s action or inactions in the face of the nationwide protests.

He, however, stressed the need to arrest and prosecute criminals, who had taken advantage of the protests to cause loss of lives and properties.Meanwhile, Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State has inaugurated a 17-member peace committee to ensure that the relative peace being enjoyed in the state is maintained.
