The Digest:

Activist and politician Omoyele Sowore has condemned the violent attack on women and children protesting insecurity in Kwara State, calling the incident “one of the most despicable scenes” at a government house. In a post on X, Sowore accused Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq of intolerance and criticized police officers for standing by as hired thugs assaulted protesters.

Key Points:
  • Sowore condemned the attack on women and children protesting insecurity in Kwara State
  • He accused Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq of sanctioning or permitting the violence
  • Sowore criticized the Nigeria Police officers for failing to intervene during the assault
  • The protesters were demanding action over mass kidnappings in their area
  • Sowore called for the arrest and prosecution of the thugs and complicit officers
  • He described the attack as “barbaric” and unacceptable in a democracy
  • The incident occurred in front of the Kwara State Government House in broad daylight
When those meant to protect become spectators to brutality, the state doesn’t just fail its citizens, it betrays the very idea of safety it is sworn to uphold.
