#EndSWAT protests hit National Assembly

The National Assembly was on Thursday the venue of the #ENDSARS protests by Nigerian youths who are agitating police brutality and extra-judicial killings in the country by the Nigeria Police. The protesting youth who turned out in large numbers stood against the hired thugs deployed to obstruct their activities and proceeded to storm the National Assembly complex to register their protest before the federal lawmakers.

The youths displayed placards through which they were communicating their messages to the public and members of the National Assembly, demanding justice and compensation for victims of police brutality and extra-judicial killings.

National Assembly security personnel were observed barricading the entrance to the National Assembly complex.

As at the time of this report, there was no violence either from the security personnel or the protesting youths at the venue.
