Jonathan had not spoken since the protest kicked off over a week ago. Nigeria’s former President, Goodluck Jonathan has broken his silence on the ongoing #EndSARS protest in the country.
On Tuesday,
the former President sued for restraint as the protests against the operation
of Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) continued to spread across the country.
He said: “I
implore everyone to exercise restraint as we walk through these challenging
times.”
The former
President stressed that no Nigerian life should be lost during peaceful
protests.
He stated
this in a post he made through his social media accounts.
The message
said: “No Nigerian blood needs to be spilled or life lost during a peaceful
protest that seeks to advance our country.
“We may hold
different views on national issues, but there is no doubt that most people
desire the same thing for Nigeria: a place where we can all live out the full
potential of our God-given abilities.
“I implore
everyone to exercise restraint as we walk through these challenging times.”
