Okwori and the National Secretary, Mr. Olatunji Omole, the group urged the federal government to urgently investigate the unfortunate incidents with a view to ensure justice for the victims.The statement also called on Nigerian youth to be calm and maintain law and order and conduct themselves peacefully as they ventilate their grievances on the current state of affairs in the country.
CLASFON appealed to President Muhammadu Buhari to urgently address the demands and agitations of the youths by putting in place appropriate strategies and timelines for implementing the demands of the protesters to demonstrate government’s sincerity addressing the problems.
The statement said: “The youth of Nigeria, as citizens of our nation, are entitled to the fundamental and inalienable rights to freedom of expression, assembly, and thought guaranteed by the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and should not be denied or hampered in any way from exercising their rights guaranteed by the Constitution, as this is the hallmark of a true democracy.
