…….They have shamelessly murdered defenseless/helpless citizens, brought down properties with religious
and ethnic incitements
..We demand that International Criminal Court and all global bodies come
to the rescue and ensure those behind the killings are prosecuted
..Nigerians will never forget the helpless execution of our youngmen
tonight
..Our Petition to ICC will be sent Tomorrow
The Coalition of United Political Parties (CUPP), is alarmed and
saddened by the turn of event as regards the peaceful protests that
courageous Nigerian youths have been carrying out across the country,
asking for a better deal from their government.
We are taken aback that a democratic government in the 20th century can
turn the face of guns to harmless and peaceful protesters.
The mass killings of Nigerian youths in Lekki and other parts of Lagos
State as well as in Abuja which started with deployment of Armed Bandits
and lastly government Security Forces are serious crimes against
humanity that should not go without being probed and the brutal
murderous elements identified and prosecuted.
We are therefore calling on the International Criminal Court and other
global bodies not only to take note of the massacre going on in Nigeria
but to also ensure that all those behind this are brought to book.
Nigerians will never forget that on the night of Tuesday, October 20,
2020, a government that they are sustaining with their taxes unleash
mayhem on them and killed the youths in their numbers.
