The Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, says the Federal Government is thoughtful and sensitive about the young people in the country.

Speaking during a media parley on Thursday in Abuja, Osinbajo said the President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration is focused on investing in infrastructure that will provide opportunities for young people to express themselves and become entrepreneurs.

He, therefore, said young people should believe that the government will do its best to attend to their demands as long as the resources are available.

“What young people need to know is that this government is thoughtful, sensitive and concerned about them,” he said.

“We intend to do the very best that we can given the resources that we have. The youths must also see that we were very quick to respond to make amends where we see that things may not be exactly right.”

***Protesters Storm NASS***

Protesters against police brutality and extra-judicial killings have taken their demonstration to the National Assembly complex in Abuja, the nation’s capital.

The protesters in their numbers on Thursday stormed the complex displaying placards lamenting extra-judicial killings and demanding justice for victims of police brutality.

They sang songs of solidarity, recited the national anthem, and chanted ‘EndSWAT!’ ‘EndSWAT!’.

Security agents could, however, be seen forming a barricade at the entrance to the National Assembly complex.

Thousands of protesters across the country have been protesting in the last one week against the harassment, extortion, and extrajudicial killings perpetrated by the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) of the Nigeria Police Force.

The police authorities in response to the outcry of the protesters disbanded the SARS unit and announced the setting up of the Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) unit as its replacement but the protests and demonstrations continue nationwide with hashtags #EndSWAT, #EndSARS, #EndPoliceBrutality dominating social media trends.

While the federal government are busy working on some beautiful programs where the youths will be the major beneficiaries and become a better enterprenuer, some are still busy on the street shouting #EndSars up and down because of the free food they eat on the protest. What will they fall to after the protest ? Is SARS the only problem we are facing ? We the reasonable ones are with you Mr Vice President. We can't wait to see the positive impact of the program.

Sir,

Are you still talking? This is unbelievable.
Does Aso Rock make people blind to reality?
You know you will live longer than Buhari, that one has likely entered his last hours.
So Sir, what will you say about this time you spent?
And what you did with 8 years as VP?
Think about it sir. Think.

#SoroSoke.

like play like play this thing go fully grow into something else

��

Youth presented 5 demands and all five were met immediately, they should either present more demands or end protest

The Police Reform Act 2020 can help the whole policing structure if implemented

.

protests:
Sir,

Are you still talking? This is unbelievable.

What's his crime now? For rising to the occasion where he called the IGP on the first day of the Protest? Or meeting with DG DSS on ways to deal with the issue of giving series of press briefings where he stood by the Nigerian youths? Or where he said SARS cannot curb cybercrime by searching for Nigerian youths' phones, laptops or vehicles? Huh

This whole issue is getting out of hand..
It seems it's yahoo guys that are fueling the #ENDSARS protest..
Osinbajo should just mind his lane.. After all the harassment im still get mind wan come yarn..



#ENDSARS jare...

Yet he said Nigerian youth are lazy always seeking freebies or criminals always seeking for asylum in foreign countries? He signed the not too young to run bill but asked youth to start contesting in 2023? What has he done about the SARS killings since he came on board? So much for having the youth @ heart.

I don't think so...
