#ENDSARS PROTESTERS WANT SOWORE ARRESTED

The EndSARS protesters have urged the Federal Government to revoke the bail earlier granted the RevolutionNow convener and publisher of SaharaReporters, Omoyele Sowore, following his earlier arrest and detention by the Department of State Service (DSS) for alleged treason, for allegedly breaching the conditions of the bail.

This is just as the protesters under the aegis of Genuine EndSARS Protesters, commended the Nigeria Police for rising to the occasion on Friday by dispersing a handful of misguided youths assembled at the gate of the National Assembly by the “so-called activist” to foment trouble under the pretext of EndSARS protest.

The Genuine EndSARS Protesters, in a statement, Friday, in Abuja, insisted that Sowore, having breached the conditions of the bail granted him following his RevolutionNow campaign, “must not only be immediately arrested but also have his bail revoked”.

The statement was signed by Dr. Orji Nwakocha for southeast; Dr. Aremu Babatunde for southwest; Comrade Frank Jaja representing South-South and Alhaji Ibrahim Dan Iya for North West. Others are Sheik Mohammed Adamu for North East; Mr. Dakwohi Samson for FCT; and Comrade Peter Yohana for North Central.

The group insisted that the renewed protest being spearheaded by Mr. Sowore was not known to them, restating that they had since backed down from their protests but were already meeting with governments at all levels at the roundtable.
