End SARS: Nigeria Should Be Renegotiated, Christian Elders Tell Buhari
- October
- The National Christian Elders’ Forum, (NCEF), says whoever authorised the deployment of troops to attack the protesting youths during the #EndSARS protests, should be court-marshalled for murder.
NCEF also strongly suggested that the country should be renegotiated.
These are resolutions reached at the end of the forum’s emergency meeting.
They noted that the #EndSARS protests in the country was mismanaged by the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government.
The forum lamented the release the army attacked unarmed protesters in the country.
It opined that the government should take advantage of the protesters rejecting the operation of the police brutality to introduce State Police.
It was gathered that NCEF expressed concern at the recent events in the country which commenced with nationwide protests against the excesses of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad and climaxed to the death of some of the unarmed protesters, security personnel, and mindless destruction of properties.
It stated that all the lives lost were Nigerians and there was no need for any of them to have died.

The forum noted that there should be full National Assembly inquiry into the causes of death and destruction that trailed the peaceful #EndSARS protests, and that the government must be fully investigated for the role played by security agents in transporting, and supervising vandals and thugs to attack the protesters.
The resolution of the meeting entitled, ‘#EndSARS – It is time to renegotiate Nigeria,’ observed that the political imbalance in the country produced nothing but sorrow, poverty, and death for Nigerians.
It said the unjust and sectional political structure left behind by the British colonialists was no longer sustainable, stressing that the time was ripe to re-negotiate the country.
