Human right activists in Delta State are planning to hold a procession to mark the first anniversary of the nationwide EndSARS protests.

The convener of the EndSARS protests in Delta State, Israel Joe, disclosed this to journalists in Warri on Monday.

Joe, however, stated that “the procession would depend on whether the Delta State Government will implement the judicial panel report or not.”

He said, “We are doing a wider consultation in Asaba, Ughelli, Sapele, Abraka, Warri, Udu, Kwale, etc. The governor had told us that the report was before the Exco and we want the implementation process to commence before 20th of October.

“We have been getting several calls from both families and victims of Police brutality for which compensations were awarded. We will make our stance known before the weekend after all due consultations with stakeholders, #EndSARS committee and others,” he said.
