PRESS RELEASE ON LEKKI TOLL GATE MASSACRE
PRESS RELEASE
The leadership of NUPENG viewed gory images of Tuesday night (20/10/2020) shootings of peaceful #endsars protesters at Lekki toll gate with sadness, heavy hearts and deep concerns.
Without any iota of doubt, the unfortunate incident fell short of any acceptable minimum global and civilized standards of managing peaceful Protest in any democratic system.
Our hearts bleed for our youths who lost their lives or got injured in that senseless action of the armed security agents of government.
Our deepest thoughts and prayers are equally extended to their families as well.
We ask our members nationwide to stay calm and safe at their various workplaces and be on alert as the leadership reviews the situation.
Our Solidarity remains constant for the Union makes us strong.
Signed:
Comrade (Prince) Williams Akporeha
