The Executive Secretary of the National Human Rights Commission, Dr Anthony Ojukwu, has vowed to probe security agencies reported to have violated rights of citizens who participated in the #EndBadGovernance protest.

Ojukwu, while speaking with newsmen, urged participants in the protest with complaints bordering on rights violations to submit a memorandum detailing the unfair treatment meted out on them to the commission.

Ojukwu encouraged protesters to use the toll-free number 6472 or email infor@nigeriarights.org to report any rights violations experienced.

He also disclosed that the NHRC situation room has already received some complaints which would be investigated.
