Protest: Nigerians should let my father rule for 3 years before complaining – Shade Tinubu

“The government at the centre (led by her father Mr Tinubu) just assumed office. Before you say a government is not doing well, let it last three years at least.”

Tinubu-Ojo lamented how EndSARS, a historic protest led by youth against years of indiscriminate extrajudicial killings and extortion by the Special Anti-Robbery Squad of the Nigerian Police Force, turned violent, destroying properties when thugs attacked protesters and Nigerian soldiers opened fire on the demonstrators.

“Prevention is better than treatment. We will not suffer loss of lives. Let everyone warn her children,” Mrs Tinubu-Ojo warned.

The president’s daughter’s warning comes as another pro-Tinubu government kicks against the protest as citizens mobilise for nationwide demonstrations due to economic hardship worsened by soaring food prices.

Since the protest was announced, Tinubu has met with leaders of religious groups, traditional rulers, governors, and security agencies.

After meeting with Mr Tinubu, religious leaders and monarchs joined in opposing the protests, while security agencies continued to arrest citizens supporting or organising such activities
