Nigerians Must Show Restraint During #EndSARS Protests – Omo-Agege

The Deputy President of the Senate, Sen. Ovie Omo-Agege has come out to blast the reported killing of a policeman in Ughelli, Delta.

Reports recently revealed that Etaga Stanley, a police corporal, lost his life on Thursday during #EndSARS protests in Ughelli town.

According to Omo-Agege, the incident was unfortunate and a complete investigation is needed to get to the root of it.

He added that the people must learn to show restraint during their protests while urging the police to follow due process to expose the killer.

His words, “I humbly call on our highly-regarded traditional rulers to continue to urge our people to maintain the peace that we are known for in their various kingdoms and domains.

“Our royal fathers are a great force for peace in moments like this and we trust that they will help to ensure that those who wish to tear our communities apart are not allowed to succeed.

“We also call on our religious leaders to pray for our land. God will not allow the evil of bloodshed to reign in our land.

“Violence is never an option. No meaningful development can take place in an atmosphere devoid of peace.

“Let us embrace the peace initiatives by all stakeholders, as our state is not known for violence and jungle justice.”
