As the #ENDSARS protest continues to rage on across states in Nigeria with unrelenting youths refusing to back down at any moment, Vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Professor Yemi Osinbajo has tendered an apology on behalf of the Federal government to protesters and Nigerian Youths in general over what he termed the many cases of injustices they had faced in the hands of the disbanded FSARS.

In a tweet, Osibanjo says he fully understands how many young Nigerians feel coupled with the impression that the government has been too silent, a norm which he attests to as being part of the fueling factor.

According to the Vice President, “There are far too many people who have been brutalised at the hands of the police and this is unacceptable. We must take responsibility for protecting young people, even sometimes from those who are paid to protect them”.

Yemi Osinbajo however assured that efforts are in full gear to normalize the unfortunate situation as several meetings have been held with various desks of concerns towards proferring a lasting solution.

He tweeted, “Several meetings have been held with: the @SPLAwan, @femigbaja, the Chief of Staff to @MuhammaduBuhari, Chairman of the @PoliceServiceC2, the IG of @PolceNG (IGP), the executive Secreatry of @NHRCNigeria, and governors”. We understand that you want to see action from us and I’m here to tell you that work is ongoing. I chaired a meeting of 36 state governors and the Minister of the FCT (NEC), where we resolved to set up judicial panels of inquiry so we can see justice served, and fast”.

While expressing condolences to the families of Jimoh Isiaq, a protester who lost his live to a police officer, Osinbajo stated that a proposal for a victim’s support fund to be set up by each state government has been triggered.

Forget!


#BuhariMustGo because he's too incompetent to carry out any reform.


Period!

Them go beg tire.....!!

Not only that sir, things are not just working in his country. Make una sit up. We want physical actions not too many grammar!

Hmmmm

One thing I will always respect Osinbajo for is, he doesn't associate politics with matter of life and death, the man has been resolutely committed to ending brutality by the police more than any other leader and COMMITTED to effectively reform

The same leaders who sees all this evil act of SARS and remain silent as Nigerians die daily, are also the one joining end SARS to save face and in turn ask us to go back home without answer.

If yemi osibanjo was bold enough he would have confronted buhari,but they are all scared of buhari

Osy our humble Prof, your party made us a pledge, the youths are only keeping their own part of the bargain.

Match action with words. That’s what we demand!

Curiously, non of the political parties have released statements about #endsars. Not even PDP the opposition. What does this tell u

They don’t really care about us!

Don't we have a president to come out and speak on National TV or live broadcast..why is it always you that is talking..what kind of dead president do we have for crying out loud?During the Black lives matters protest in USA I was always glued on CNN seeing the president Trump always with the press 247 and addressing the country but in our own case Buhari can't even come out for just two minutes on a live broadcast, Nnamdi Kanu was right after all that our president he Buhari is dead,nah him photocopy dey Aso Rock.we the youth can't take it anymore, enough is a enough its time we take over the country from this bad,old,greed,tribalistic,selfish,incompetent and dummy President and replace him with we the youth which are the leaders of tomorrow. Peace out

Yemi find a back sit and tell your Boss to adrrss this abnormality happening in Nigeria since he luckily become Nigeria president


you claimed to know what Nigeria youths are feeling but how? kiki and her siblings have escort and securities, so how did you know what Nigeria youths have went thru in the hand of those that should be protecting them


nonsense

What a government?
What was government reactions when innocent Nigerians lost their lives in the hands of those who ought to protect them?


An armed officer should be made to justify any life lost in his hands at any point, their shoulders be a clearance from the presidency on it.

There must be a mandatory situation report on any life lost in the hands of a police and other related bodies. It shouldn't just end at the station or State commands

Not only that sir, things are not just working in his country. Make una sit up. We want physical actions not too many grammar!
