He also called on the authorities to listen to the demands of the youths and every incident of excessive use of force against the protesters investigated.

He said, “I woke up to the peaceful #EndSARSProtests going on in Lagos and other cities in the country.

First, I would like to commend the tenacity of our brave youths who have stayed out on the streets all day and night to make their voices heard. I stand with you all.”

“Protests are an essential part of any democracy as we have seen the world over, and should be seen as an opportunity for dialogue between our people and our leaders.
