Activist Omoleye Sowore is leading a protest over the poor welfare and pension conditions of the Nigerian Police personnel to the Force Headquarters and later the National Assembly.
The group brandished placards showing their demands for both serving and retired police officers, chanting solidarity songs with the theme, “Pay Police a Living Wage and Proper Pensions”.
One of the placards titled #Police protest reads, “Decent Salaries Now”, “End Police Slavery”, “Pesion for Police Officers” and “Dignity for Those in Uniform”.
The protesting group, who were not allowed to enter inside Force Headquarters, were, however provided with police escorts as they proceed to the National Assembly.
