EndSARS: protesting groups blame ‘fifth columnists’ for Edo jailbreak, mayhem

Pro-#EndSARS groups under the aegis of Coalition of Genuine #EndSARS Protesters, has blamed fifth columnists for the violence recorded across the country during the protests carried out against police brutality.

The group in a statement issued in Abuja, Tuesday and signed by Dr Orji Nwakocha , Dr Aremu Babatunde , Comrade Frank Jaja for , Alhaji Ibrahim Dan Iya from , Sheik Mohammed Adamu from , Mr Dakwohi Samson and Comrade Peter Yohana representing North Central, called on the international community to keep close watch on developments trailing the #EndSARS movements “with a view to holding sponsores of violence responsible for their actions”.

“We wish to emphatically state that these people associated with the violence are not our members and can never be. Rather, they are a people sponsored by desperate fifth columnists to brand us as violent protesters. Their aim is to justify their planned application of maximum force on us. The statement added that, “it is surprising that these same fifth columnists who obviously are responsible for parts of the problems President Muhammadu Buhari is facing in his administration today due to their actions or inactions still want to plunge the country into another round of mess.

“We wish to say here that all we, the genuine protesters are asking is to Scrap SARS, SWAT and as well, reform the Nigeria police force to meet internationally acceptable standard.
