#EndSARS: What Nigerian govt must do to prevent another protest – Lawan

The 2021 budget should ensure that employment opportunities are provided for Nigerian youth, the Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, said on Monday. He made the call at the National Assembly when the Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, Sabo Nanono, appeared before the Senate committee on agriculture to defend the ministry’s 2021 budget. Providing job opportunities for the youth will help avert another protest in the country, he said, referring to the #EndSARS protest which was held in many parts of the country in October. The protest, which was also held in many cities outside Nigeria, lasted for about two weeks.
