The President Bola Tinubu-Led Administration is pushing for a death penalty for ten #EndBadGovernance protesters.
The government accused the protesters of treason, a
capital offence punishable by death.
This was contained in a Court document with file number
FHC/ABJ/CR/454/2024, indicating the Tinubu regime is seeking
death penalty for the protesters.
The arrested protesters include:
Michael Tobiloba Adaramoye
Adeyemi Abiodun Abayomi
Suleiman Yakubu
Opaluwa Eleojo Simon
Angel Love Innocent
Buhari Lawal
Mosiu Sadiq
Bashir Bello
Nuradeen Khamis
Abdulsalam Zubairu.
Since the end of the nationwide protests against widespread hardship
and insecurity in the country last month, a crackdown on those who participated
in the public demonstration by security agencies has been the order of
the day.
Hundreds of people have been arrested, including minors,
for their alleged involvement in the protest. Many of the arrested persons are
being detained without any arraignment.
