It was gathered that the protesters, under the tag #ReformEFCC, have outlined six key demands that will be submitted to various commission offices across the country.
Some of their demands include:
“Respect our fundamental human rights
“Stop indiscriminate arrest and invasion of people's homes
“Stop destroying people's properties in the name of sting operation
“Stop the profiling of young Nigerians
“Stop assaulting and manhandling Nigerians”
A Twitter user, @PidomNigeria, said:
“This #ReformEFCC's protest today is not sponsored by anyone, it's not political, neither does it have any political undertone in it.
“It is purely a people-centered organic peaceful protest, calling for a much-needed reformation of EFCC for better performance. Anyone who is seen calling for Tinubu must go, or End APC at the protest venues, in order to give this peaceful protest a political colouration, will be handed over to the police by protesters.”
