“We further assert that the assertion that “on the contrary, the Police will ONLY ALLOW an indoor and virtual event in commemoration of the #EndSARS Anniversary and will provide adequate security at the venue(s) if known” contradicts the decision in MUHAMMADU BUHARI v INSPECTOR GENERAL OF POLICE that a Police Permit is not required for peaceful processions in the exercise of the fundamental right to peaceful assembly.”
“We respectfully submit that your Command, by its stated position, has resolved once more to repress the fundamental rights of peaceful citizens who wish to gather tomorrow, October 20th, 2021, to commemorate the #EndSARS Anniversary.”
“You will kindly note that the fundamental rights of association, peaceful assembly, peaceful procession, freedom of movement, and expression are all enshrined and guaranteed under the grundnorm, the Federal Republic of Nigeria Constitution” (1999 as amended).
Take note that no members of the #EndSARS movement or citizens interested in commemorating the First Anniversary of the 2020 #EndSARS Protests threatened violence, breached public peace, or caused any kind of nuisance in their commemoration activities. We dare you to provide evidence to the contrary.
“In light of the foregoing, we request that your Command respect the Constitution and, as law-keepers, obey the laws of the land in the matter at hand.”
