EndSARS Protesters in Lagos have not backed down despite the reaction of the Federal Government to the demands of endSARS protesters across Nigeria,

The Protesters defied heavy downpour and matched down to Lekki tollgate, Onikan Stadium and the Lagos State Secretariat, Alausa, Ikeja to continue their demonstration.

According to reports that have surfaced on social media, protesters in Abuja have been attacked by hoodlums around Berger bridge in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja. The protesters have repelled the hoodlums and have regrouped to continue their demonstration.

Recall that yesterday, the Federal Government and other stakeholders consented to the #5 of #5 demand of the protesters and promised to work on police reform.

Furthermore, Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, recalled all members of the now proscribed State Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS), to Abuja for debriefing, psychological and medical examination. He also established a new anti-robbery team Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) to fill in the gaps arising from the dissolution of SARS.
