Recall that on Monday, October 12, the governor banned residents of the state from staging any #EndSARS protest.
On Tuesday morning, the residents trooped out in their numbers, defied his order, and staged a protest. Governor Wike was forced to come out to speak with them.
Watch a video of him talking to the protesters below;
He told the Police to exercise caution while dealing with demonstrators.
The former Nigerian leader issued the statement Tuesday night.
There have been at least 6 fatalities since last the protest against police brutality broke out on Saturday.
Jonathan noted that the desire of everyone is for a better Nigeria
He insisted that no Nigerian blood needs to be spilled or life lost during a peaceful protest.
“We may hold different views on national issues, but there is no doubt that most people desire the same thing for Nigeria.
“A place where we can all live out the full potential of our God-given abilities I implore everyone to exercise restraint as we walk through these challenging times”, Jonathan tweeted.
Sagay who said the protest is being hijacked by hoodlums added that having done what the youths requested, the federal government may be have no choice than to forcefully put and end to the protests if the youths continue.
Speaking in a chat with Daily Independent, Sagay said having proven to be a listening government, the youths should be satisfied with the steps taken by the government and suspend the protests.
According to him, continuing the protests after all that has been done by the government may be as a ploy by the youths to destabiliise the country using #EndSARS as a smokescreen.
He said “My observation is that hoodlums are already hijacking the protests. The IGP has already disbanded the SARS. So, it no longer exists officially as a unit. The youths refused to stop protesting, they said they wanted the President to issue an Executive Order dissolving it. Executive Orders are not used for that purpose”.
“Executive Orders are lawmaking instruments to make laws, just like National Assembly will make a law, although this type of Executive Order is below that level. It wouldn’t have been an appropriate thing to do”.
“But it’s as if the President is listening, he now came and made this address in which he accepted everything the youths are asking for. He went on to even say that the squad people who are responsible for various harmful and illegal activities will be identified and dealt with. To me, that should be the end of the matter”.
” I believe the youths should be satisfied at this stage. If the youths still come out tomorrow again, then it will look as if the whole demonstration has a hidden agenda for which EndSARS is being used as a cover. It will seem there is an agenda to disturb the stability of the country and engage in activities that may be along the line of #RevolutionNow which itself is the highest crime in our constitution”.
“In such a situation, the government will have no choice than to bring an end to it and nobody will be able to complain then”.
“This is what they were doing in Hongkong for nine months. They got all that they want in Hongkong but they refused and continued protesting; they stopped all commercial activities; stopped flying in and out of Hongkong and paralysed all activities until the Chinese stepped in and were forced to pass the law, completely suspended their rights, and now they are complaining”.
“So, our youths must know how far they should go. Since they have gotten more than they want, at this stage, everyone should quietly go back to their homes and not continue obstructing the highways, disturbing commercial activities in the state”.
“Otherwise, it could give rise to much more serious consequences which they themselves will not be happy about” Sagay said.

Davido explained that he was in Abuja because of his fans and he came to the protest venue to calm things down.
The singer had insisted that he wanted an open-door meeting but the IGP said , ”How can you come here for a closed-door meeting, when you were protesting yesterday and you identified with the protesters?
Davido responded, ”I did not protest, I was not there to protest. I was there to calm things down because the protesters are my fans.”
However, Adamu maintained that Davido had taken an action that projected him as playing a true voice for young people, adding that the agenda of the meeting needed to be streamlined.
Recall that Adamu on Sunday, announced the disbandment of SARS, following days of online and offline protests.
But despite the ban, SARS officers were caught assaulting protesters in different parts of the country.

Following the nationwide outrage, Mohammed Adamu, the Inspector-General of Police, on Sunday dissolved the unit, ordering all officers and men of the now defunct Special anti-robbery Squad to be redeployed with immediate effect.
Reacting, Trey Songz in a tweet via his official Twitter account blasted Buhari for being mute over such sensitive issue for a very long time.

He wrote “The people saying you full of shit fam.
“Reading this article looks as though they just gon re-employ these same officers in different positions. BULLSHIT!!!”

According to him in a video he posted recently on his instagram page, he said;
"My Dad served the Nigerian Police. His memory doesn't deserve this mess. If we won't see the law discipline the Officers that break the law, then why are the same officers chasing kids who they claim are breaking the law.
Who also is jn charge of the welfare of the Officers that we see starving as well?
#endsarsbrutality take care of all Officers in Nigeria. Pay them well. They have dreams too. My dad had dreams he couldn't achieve too before he died.
We meet on Lagos Island on Tuesday. Details later."
