As Nigeria braces for nationwide protests slated for Monday, 7 April 2025, Amnesty International has called on authorities to uphold the rights of citizens to peaceful protest and freedom of expression.

In a statement issued on Sunday, Isa Sanusi, Director of Amnesty International Nigeria, urged security agencies to respect the constitutional and international rights of demonstrators and cautioned against any form of repression or intimidation.

The Nigerian authorities must ensure that security agencies respect and facilitate the right to peaceful protest, as guaranteed by both the countrys own constitution and international human rights treaties, Sanusi stated.

Government officials must also refrain from issuing rhetoric aimed at demonizing protesters and stifling peaceful dissent.
