#FearlessInOctober Protest: Organizers List Demands To Tinubu Government

One of the leaders of the #FearlessInOctober protest, Omoyele Sowore, has identified some of the demands of the protesters and what they are demanding from the federal government.

Speaking to newsmen on Tuesday during the protest in Lagos, Sowore said they want the government to release all the detained protesters from the #EndBadGovernance protests two months ago, and that of the #EndSars protest in 2020.

He added that they want the detainees released before the day (Tuesday) ends.

He said if, by the end of the day, their demands are not met, the next line of action would be unveiled.

“We are asking the Federal Government to release every detained protester whether in Kaduna, Abuja, Katsina or Kano. The Federal Government should release them today.

“If by the end of today, the FG did not release the EndBadGovernance protesters and EndSars people..some of end SARS people in 2020. We will tell you the next line of action,” he said.

The human rights activist cum politician also stated that the protesters are struggling for a new independence.

According to him, the 1960 independence obtained from colonial masters is different. Sowore explained that what they are fighting for now is the independence of the citizens from the clutches of the ruling class, who have turned into corrupt cabals and looters.

“Those who have made life miserable for our people deliberately, the looters, the corrupt cabals, both in the oil sector or whatever sector they may be.

“Our independence starts now, because the independence we got in 1960, they struggled for it, we are struggling for a new independence and it is part of the continuation of what we started in 2019 with Revolution Now because we believe that only revolution can save this country,” he said when asked by newsmen the reasons for the fresh protest.
