Datti Baba-Ahmed: Labour Party is not direct beneficiary of #EndSARS movement
Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed, the Labour Party's vice presidential candidate, claimed on Thursday that his party is not a direct beneficiary of the #EndSARS movement.

Speaking in an interview with Politics Today on Channels Television, Baba-Ahmed remarked that the Labour Party gains from peace in Nigeria.

He explained that the LP would fix the errors of poor governance and implement beneficial improvements in the nation if elected in the general elections of 2023.

“While we are always on the side of good governance, we are against attrition, repression and all those,” he said.

“We are not direct beneficiaries of #EndSARS, we never wanted #EndSARS to happen. We never wanted any Nigerian whatsoever to be attacked. Accordingly, I cannot really say and be happy that we are direct beneficiaries.”

Baba-Ahmed also shed light on some events leading up to the October 20, 2022 situation wherein some protesters were believed to have been shot by security operatives.

“There was an abuse of human rights, procedure. If some people interpret it as a massacre, then yes. These are well-meaning Nigerians who brought themselves to a public area and were attacked by security forces that were meant to be protecting their lives and properties.

“The use of massacre is highly debatable but I can say for sure that there were abuses of procedure and civil rights violations,” he said.

With the 2023 general elections barely four months away, the LP vice presidential candidate also highlighted his party’s vision for Nigeria.

According to him, the party will tackle insecurity, address corruption, and fix the economy while focusing well on education for young Nigerians.
