0

President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan, on Thursday, advised the anti-SARS protesters to end their agitations on the streets.

He said it would enable the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari, (retd.), to work on the implementation of their five-point agenda.

Lawan also asked the President to expedite actions on the reform for peace to reign.

He stated this after the Senate Leader, Yahaya Abdullahi, briefed the plenary on the outcome of his meeting with the #EndSARS protesters on Wednesday.

The protesters had blocked the National Assembly entrance forcing Lawan to ask Abdullahi and the Minority Leader, Enyinnaya Abaribe, to meet with them.

“They can do so to call the attention of the leaders of this country for the appropriate actions to be taken.

“The government has responded, the Special Anti-Robbery Squad has been disbanded.

“All the five demands of the protesters have been accepted.
