Killings: Ezekwesili Marches To Presidential Villa In Solo Protest

 

Former Minister of Education and Co-convener of the Bring Back Our Girls campaign, Mrs Obiageli Ezekwesili, on Tuesday embarked on a solo protest to the Presidential Villa in Abuja.

Ezekwesili who was seen carrying a banner with the inscription, ‘End The Bloodshed’ was protesting against the incessant killings across the country with the most recent being that of Jos, the Plateau State capital.

She was, however, stopped by security personnel attached to the first screening point on the three arms zone, leading to the Villa.

Also, her banner was seized, and cameramen were chased away by armed police officers.
