Lagos Youth Representatives Asked To Sign Oath Of Secrecy
As the Lagos state government set up a judicial panel to preside over the #EndSARS protest, the representative sent by the Nigerian youths have been asked to sign an Oath of Secrecy.
The Oath of secrecy which was vehemently opposed by the representatives was seen as a move by the government to remove transparency from the outcomes of the panel sitting.
Taking to social media, youths across the state called out the government over what they consider an alleged attempt to silence them and sweep under the carpet the reports of the investigations that will be carried out by the panel.
One of the social media activists actively involved in the struggle, Bamikole Omoshore took t his page to report the issue.
"I don’t understand the need for oath of secrecy. @SavvyRinu
And Majekodunmi are the representatives of the youth, we stand solidly with them. They should not sign any oath of secrecy. @jidesanwoolu
should actually see that the panel is public and televised. #EndSARS"
