Today, Governor Fayemi @kfayemi inaugurated members of Ekiti State Judicial Panel of Inquiry into Allegations of Human Rights Violations against Police Officers including disbanded SARS Operatives at the Governor's Office, Ado Ekiti.
Governor Fayemi also announced the establishment of a Victims Compensation Fund to enable speedy payment of monetary compensation to deserving victims. This, according to him would enable the panel to respond appropriately to the urgent needs of victims of rights violations.
Governor Fayemi, at the brief event, also apologised to victims of the #ENDSARS protests in the state and assured the people of the state that his government would continue to take deliberate measures to protect lives and properties.
The Government of Ekiti State has observed with growing concern how the #ENDSARS protest, which started as a peaceful protest against police brutality by youths in Ekiti State, has been hijacked by some hoodlums.
The hoodlums have capitalised on the #ENDSARS protest to rape, assault, rob and extort innocent citizens across the State. These are in addition to the wanton destruction of properties, particularly private properties.
Government is concerned that if this state of affairs is allowed to continue unabated, it will lead to a breakdown of law and order thereby threatening the wellbeing of the people of Ekiti State.
