Former Presidential Candidate Prof Remi Sonaiya has challenged leaders to own up to their mistakes instead of negatively profiling Nigerians.
Sonaiya said those Nigerians being profiled as “hoodlums “ are the same citizens who have been rendered useless by the country’s system in education and economic policy.
The Presidential candidate of the Kowa Party and a retired Professor of French and Linguistics said it disheartening to see endless categorization which does not help build a country.
”Truly disheartening how our “leaders” refuse to own up to their failures! Who are these so-called “hoodlums” who hijack peaceful protests?
“Are they not Nigerians who should have been equipped for a better life using our abundant state resources? Own up!”
