Federal Government has been challenged to speed up the
execution of campaign promises made to the public without delay. execute
The chairman Gani Fawehinmi Memorial Organization,
GAFAMORG, Mr Ayodele Akele made the submission at the 7th memorial
Press Conference in Lagos.
Mr Akele noted that the negligence on part of the
present government on the campaign promises is now telling on the masses,
especially in the area of job provision, security and made adequate supply of
food stuffs to the market.
Mr Akele, also calls on the administration to always
guide against nepotism most especially in the area of appointments that is
expected to be based on merit.
He explained that attention should also be focused on
the devaluation of naira to enhance the nation’s economy.
However, reflecting on the death of Gani Fawehinmi,
those things he would have done, battles he would have fought on behalf of the
masses, the several articles he would have written challenging the unjust
decision of the government of the day and condemning the travails to which the
masses today are being subjected to.
The GAFAMORG calls on the Federal Government to immortalize
Gani by renaming the headquarters of the National Human Commision, Abuja, after
him as Chief Gani Fawehinmi Human Rights House, and establishment of Gani
Fawehinmi Freedom Square in Abuja as a freedom square where aggrieved
Nigerians, NGOs, CSOs activists ‘can gather peacefully without any molestation
to protest and ventilate their angers over bad government.
