The Youth Rights Campaign (YRC) has called for the arrest and prosecution of all Nigerian government officials responsible for the detention of minors for 90 days and for the inhumane treatment that led to their malnourishment
The YRC which made the demands on Monday through their National Secretary, Francis Nwapa, while reacting to Bola Tinubu’s order that the minors be released, said it was not surprised at Tinubu’s order, following the pressure from the local and international community.
Nwapa said, “The order by president @officialABAT that all minors be released isn’t a surprise given both local & international condemnation, which mounted pressure on his regime.
“These further affirm that Nigeria judiciary is saturated with justice that can’t deliver justice, given that a Judge ordered detention of malnourished children, a Judge granted them bail of 10 Million even when he saw they were not just minors but malnourished and they even fainted in his court.
“The most ridiculous thing is that the President had to wear a wig to order the release of minors owing to pressure. This is evident of a captured state.
“We call for all those responsible for their arrest, detention for over 90 days and malnourishment must be brought to book and charged.
“We demand immediate release of all #EndBadGovernaceInNigeria Protesters & all trump up charges dropped Now!”
