The Organisers of the planned nationwide protest #EndBadGovernance scheduled for August 1-10 have rejected offers from the Inspector General of Police (IGP) Kayode Egbetokun for confined protests.
It was gathered that the organizers rejected the proposal during a meeting with the IGP on Tuesday.
The IGP had tabled a proposal of confined protest in identified locations and advised against street rallies.
“It is not advisable to go on street processions because as you are planning peaceful protests, some are planning violence,” IGP Egbetokun cautioned.
However, Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa, one of the lawyers for the Take It Back Movement, one of the groups organising the nationwide protests, rejected the proposal of the IGP.
The Planned protest is slated to begin August 1 and run till the 10th of August, 2024.
