Citizens’ Alliance has called for an end to violence in Nigeria as the country struggles to deal with angry youths.
Nigeria has been rocked by violent protests in recent weeks over police brutality, which has seen a police anti-robbery unit accused of human rights violations scrapped.
CA said in a statement: “We have been following the reports of the unfortunate incidents in our sisterly country of The Federal Republic of Nigeria. Citizens Alliance is disheartened by the deteriorating situation including and especially the loss of precious human life.
“We call on the Government and all stakeholders to work together for a peaceful resolution and to bring the violence to an immediate end. CA stands with our Nigerian brothers and sisters, extend our deepest condolences for the lives lost, and enjoins on all parties to prioritize the lives, well-being, and development of Nigeria.”
