Oby Ezekwesili Embarks On One Woman Protest Against Plateau Killings

Oby Ezekwesili, former Minister of Education, has embarked on a ‘one-woman march’ to the Aso Rock Presidential Villa to protest the incessant killings in various parts of Nigeria.

Ezekwesili had tweeted, on Tuesday, that she would carry out the protest even if nobody else joins her.

I shall MARCH tomorrow to the Villa to protest the latest BESTIAL #PlateauKillings.

I believe in the Power of One Citizen to STAND UP AGAINST ANY EVIL in their society & DEMAND ACCOUNTABILITY.

I DON’T WANT MORE KILLINGS.

12 noon, I SHALL MARCH. #StopTheKillingsNOW

“Some days, Nigeria shatters your heart. One is left picking up the pieces with so much pain . This latest Jos tragedy is a real heartbreak,” she wrote.

“Just seeing those children mauled down and brutalized. Haaaaa! What was their offense? What was their offense???

“The # PlateauKillings are unbearable. Tomorrow, I shall fulfill my pledge earlier this year to embark on a march to the Aso Rock Villa to ask the Nigerian President to # StopTheKillingsNOW !

The #PlateauKillings are UNBEARABLE.
