Some youths today trooped to the streets of Akure the Ondo state capital to hold peaceful procession marking the first anniversary of the EndSARS protest.

In Akure, Business and normal official activities in places like Oyemekun road, Oja Oba to Alagbaka area continue undisrupted even as security operatives provided protection for the youths who were marking the first anniversary of the Endsars protest.

The protesters matched from Old Garage in Akure and ended the #EndSARS Remembrance Day at the Ondo State Police Headquarters on Igbatoro road where the State Commissioner of Police, Mr Bolaji Salami addressed them and attributed the delay in the implementation of the panel report on the last year’s protest to paucity of funds on the part of the Ondo state government.
