Nigeria Youths Calls For Inspector-General of Police Kayode Egbetokun Resignation


Nigeria’s police chief have been criticise over police’ conduct during recent end bad governance demonstrations in which dozens of protesters were killed.

The Nigerian youths are asking the presidency to accept the resignation of Inspector General of Police Kayode Egbetokun, who has served in the role since 19 June 2023.

Nigeria’s protesters faced death to hold their leaders to account, as IGP Kayode Egbetokun and some anti-people politicians discourages the president from bowing to the demands of protesters.

Some of the young people behind the demonstrations had called for Inspector General of Police Kayode Egbetokun to go, with police accused of using excessive force during the protests and after the protests, the most serious crisis of Tinubu's near two-year presidency.

Nigeria’s investigative Journalists Watchdog said at least 39 people were killed in the EndBadGovernace protests.

“This is what these young protesters and many other Nigerians have been asking for. They were asking for the Inspector General of Police Kayode Egbetokun to resign because of how he handled those protests,” concern Nigerian said.

“It wasn’t just tear gas the police were using, it was also live bullets. Some people are still in hospital because they were shot. Many others died because of the shooting.”

Peaceful protesters were protesting as police use tear gas to disperse protesters during a demonstration for return of fuel subsidy and against the imposition of fuel hikes by the government in Abuja, Nigeria

Tinubu has not taken any series of measures to placate the demonstrators, instead the corruption among government officials are on the increase, fuel prices are on the rise, and protest organizers and participants are been harass by the Nigeria police. But this unethical act of the Government are not appeasing young Nigerians frustrated with Tinubu’s failure to deliver on his 2023 election promises to create jobs and boost their fortunes.

Initially peaceful, the protests sharply escalated in some states when police fired at crowds who stormed out to protest peacefully from August 1 to 10th, ransacking the partly ablaze protesters. While large-scale street protests have subsided, anger against the government and the police has not.

“When Nigerian Youths first went to the streets, Tinubu dismissed the protesting Nigerians as a bunch of hired goons and criminals, only to come later and start saying he will make changes,” EndBadGovernance protester, 42, told Media House.

“We will be back on the streets on October until Nigerian Youths demands are meant and all imprisoned EndBadGovernance Protesters are release. Tinubu has wasted almost two years in office travelling and telling lies,” EndBadGovernance Protester, told the Media Houses.

Including nafdac boss and others.

I am not a fan of this kind of extension because of the impact on the promotion prospect of others. Everyone should leave once they get to their statutory age of retirement. Policy like this will only lead to stagnation and poor moral in the service.

Tinubu government is the worst government ever.

Nigeria police have now become government thugs used by tinubu government to intimidate and harass poor Nigerians fighting for their rights, protest organizers and participants

Everyone should leave once they get to their statutory age of retirement. The Inspector General of Police Kayode Egbetokun have reached his retirement age but still his police service was extended by corrupt tinubu government so they can continue using him to do their dirty unethical work of harassing protest organizers and protesters but this time around the hunter will be hunted.

The extension of the IGP Kayode Egbetokun should be revoke as this is the right thing to be done.

Good move! #EgbetokunMustGo, and he should be prosecuted for the crimes committed against Nigerians citizens during the End Bad Governance protest.
