Renowned human rights lawyer, Femi Falana, SAN, has stated that no amount of threats can stop the planned nationwide protest over the prevailing economic realities across the country.
Speaking on Channels TV on Tuesday 23 July, Falana said; “How do you identify those who are issuing statements; those who are planning the protest, and then engage with them productively? But threats do not work. In fact, on some occasions, the desperation of the government also has a way of popularizing such protests.”
