Rev. Chris Okotie has described as barbaric, the killings of innocent #Endsars protesters at their gathering at the Lekki Toll gate in Lagos last Tuesday.
In a statement released by his media Adviser, Ladi Ayodeji, the cleric said, the attack on the protesters was unacceptable and a gross violation of their right to peaceful association in a democratic environment.
The Reverend condoled with the families of the victims of the attacks and called on the security operatives to desist from turning their guns on peaceful protesters who are asking for good governance. He insisted that those who carried out the attack must be brought to book.
He called on President Muhammadu Buhari to immediately address the grievances of the youth and restore order to the polity to prevent further escalation of the crisis. He also decried the destruction of public property, warning that such actions were counter production and inimical to public interest.
