Legal counsel to the Federal government in the arraignment of 67 minors accused of participating in the End Bad Governance protest, Rimazonte Ezekiel, has come out to dismiss claims that the accused persons are minors and should not have been arraigned.
While speaking to newsmen after their arraignment, Rimazonte said contrary to public opinion, the 67 accused are not minors but “adults and that most of them are married.”
‘’These boys that we brought to court today, all of them are adults. Most of them are married men, None of them is a minor, Some of them are university graduates. The small small kids you are seeing here, they came with some of their parents to greet their loved ones. They are not the real suspects standing trial in this case. These boys were arrested in Kaduna and Zaria, Imagine the level we have found ourselves now. Do you know how much it cost us to be at this level of democracy in this country? These young boys are trying to destabilize Nigeria using the Russian flags and other countries, calling on the military to remove our President. Is it fair?”
