Lagos state governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has appealed to residents of the state to stop the #EndSARS protests, IgbereTV reports.

The protest which has gone peaceful since they started last week, turned violent in Surulere today October 12. A driver and a police inspector were killed in the clash between the protesters and the police.

In a post shared on his Twitter handle, the governor said he is making the appeal as a father.

He tweeted:

''I want to appeal to the protesters to take a break from protesting tomorrow. Tempers are at a highest on all sides at this time and while we work to prevent escalation, the safety of our residents is paramount. I speak not just as a governor, but as a father, brother and son.''

The governor added that he will be meeting with President Buhari in Abuja tomorrow October 13 over the EndSARS agitation.

The governor also mentioned that he will be meeting with the state Commissioner of Police, Hakeem Odumosu, for the release of the protesters that were arrested on Monday.

He tweeted:

''I am meeting with the Lagos CP. Protesters will be released and broader issues will be addressed in my meeting with the President tomorrow. Let us take a break from protests tomorrow and give us a chance to take tangible next steps."

we should rather change the agenda to #resctructuring now.

What Nigeria lack is structural problems. The new unit after the disbandment of SARS is the same NPF under a new name. It's just like changing the dress of a tiger and call it another name. If Nigeria is restructured, the major problems of this country will be solved.

The #endsars protests have shown that there is power in unison and we must utilize this to achieve a greater cause for this country.

I hereby move a motion for Nigeria to be restructured.

Seconded by...?

Naija about to explode.

We've been on break for too long.

There is no break until you guys do the needful. We are done talking, now it's time for action until you people yield to the demand of the youth.

Break till when

Ehya

We are jobless and still being exploited. End Nigeria.

Let the politicians take a break from corruption first

Anyone still protesting about SARS after their dissolution should be arrested

The zombie miscreant above me is despicable. Please ignore him

Daddy!

This is how a Governor speaks, unlike that tyrant called Wike

No break. We took a break and you guys have been on stealing spree

Nigerian youths hv a lot to protest for
bad governance
corruption
etc

This is why Wike barred all protest till further notice


Ball and spineless Sanwo Olu is begging, while Wike just gave them red card

Sanwo olu is a fool..

Arrest and deal with them ruthlessly

Take a break from politics..we demand good governance

What if he said that because he doesn't want the police they can't control to kill more people?

Okay Guys, we're on Tea Break...

There's nothing wrong with dating a woman with a child. Some UEFA matches start with aggregate 1-0 �

OK

The fear of an uprising

I watched a video on YouTube where one guy was interviewed at Airport protest in Lagos and was asked why he's protesting, I was amazed at his answer.
First of all, let it be known that Nigerian youths aren't stupid. They are well learned in their own ways and are very understanding, the #Endsars protest has shown that you can't mess around anymore. If you get 1MB, try and watch and be proud. Lagos protest will happen!

Thanks to every youth that takes their time to protest for SARS to end. Our mission has been accomplished. Let it end now for the seek of our people.

Quite a time here.

Restricting movement of lagosians is another problem sourced from solving one. They should be civil with their protest
