Former Senator Shehu Sani has taken to his X account to condemn the Federal Government’s decision to arraign minors involved in a recent protest, labeling the move as “unfortunate and shameful” for Nigeria’s democracy.
Sani urged the FG to withdraw the charges and facilitate the children’s safe return to their home states.
“Democracy should be a shield, not a sword against the young,” he emphasized, sparking widespread support and renewed scrutiny on the nation’s handling of youth protests.
