Restrain the military and other security agencies from using brute force as a way of ending the crisis – Obasanjo tells Buhari over shooting of protesters

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has written an 8-paragraph letter, condemning the shooting of protesters in the country.

 

Obasanjo noted in his letter that the protest against police brutality and improvement of lives of Nigerians has been a peaceful one. He added that the shooting and murder of unarmed protesters no matter the level of provocation, has never been effective in suppressing public anger and frustration.
