The Executive Chairman of Alimosho Local Government, Hon. Jelili Sulaimon, while speaking with #ENDSARS protesters within Ikotun over the weekend, identified with them as youths and implored them to ensure it was peaceful.
Hon Jelili reassured them that as youths with a bright future, it was proper for them to ask for their rights. If the leaders in power want the progress of the nation, they should also heed to the needs of the youth.
He claimed he is a youth and understands the role of youths in the community. Hence he implored them to exercise patience since the Lagos State Government and the Federal Government are ready to listen to their pleas.
The Chairman told protesters in Ikotun and its environs to remember that COVID-19 is still very much in existence. They should ensure it is peaceful and lives and property should be secured. He also implored them to maintain orderliness.
Recall that all the protesters of the peaceful #ENDSARS movement have been speaking with a single voice to put an end to the activities of the disbanded Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) of the Nigeria Police Force, among other demands.
