Group Wants FG To Stop #RevolutionNow

By Ella Makondo

A Coalition of Civil Society Organisations ( CSOs) has accused members of the #RevolutionNow group of causing anarchy in Nigeria , calling on the federal government to put a permanent end to the protest in the country.

Recall that members of the  #RevolutionNow group inspired by the convener, Omoyele  Sowore, recently launched protests in some states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) leading to  the arrest of many of Its members by security operatives.

At a  press conference Friday, in Abuja, the convener of the Civil Society Groups for Peace, Justice, and Development (CSGPJD), Comrade Yusuf Yahuza, said the activities of the  group were causing anarchy in the country as well complicating issues for the government.

“How can you revolt against the government to create a government inside a sovereign government? We wish to condemn it in its entirety and call for more decisive action across the board to stem the tide and put an end to such evil.

“We wish to make Nigerians, especially the DSS, police, and other security agencies including the judiciary to note that there is a challenge that needs to be nipped in the bud before it affects the whole system.

“How will individuals taken to court on the same issue disobey flagrantly the court to organize individuals and stage a protest? Is this not contempt of court proceedings? Are the individuals in question now above the law? Justice must be served decisively against such individuals to prevent a reoccurrence of such in the future,” he asked.
