Members
of the Ekiti State House of Assembly have taken their protest over the
armed men of the Department of State Services (DSS) Friday, March 4,
2016, invasion of the House of Assembly complex and subsequent abduction
of four of the assembly members, calling on the international community
to intervene and save democracy in Nigeria from imminent collapse.
Carrying placards with various inscriptions; the lawmakers said;
“We want to state here categorically that no amount of intimidation, harassment and oppression will make us impeach our leader and benefactor, Governor Ayodele Fayose. The DSS should therefore know that the 2006 theory they are working on will not work this time around.”
Some of the inscriptions on the placards read;
“DSS harassment is about 2018, we won’t be cowed,” DSS, face this impunity must stop! This is democracy, not dictatorship,” DSS, don’t destroy our democracy, respect rule of law,”Fayose remains our leader, we won’t impeach him,” “Nigerians need change, not chains,” “Buhari, face economy and security, not opposition,” and “DSS, free Ekiti lawmakers; we are legislators, not criminals.”
