The End SARS protesters along the Benin/ Lagos Expressway by the University of Benin main gate, Ugbowo, and its environs said they will not stop the protest which seeks to #EndBadGovernance in Nigeria despite the 24-hour curfew imposed by the Edo State Government.
The protesters, who blocked one lane of the highway by the university gate this Wednesday, distributed tags to its members as means of identity to differentiate them from the hoodlums who are not part of the End SARS protest.
The 24-hour curfew imposed by the Edo State Government on Monday seems not to have any effect on commercial activities in the state, as some motorists and residents are going about their normal duties with no security operatives on the ground on the Benin/ Lagos Expressway to enforce the restriction of movement.
But from the Uselu axis to Uwasota, through to Adolor Junction en route to the University of Benin main gate, the End SARS protesters were seen in few numbers on the way continuing the protest.
The protesters whose base is along the Benin/ Lagos Expressway condemned the killings of their colleagues at Lekki, Lagos, by military men saying that the movement to liberate Nigeria from bad governance cannot be truncated by force.
They, therefore, called on all youths of Edo State not to relent in the struggle for a better Nigeria.
