Human right lawyers led by Lagos Based Lawyer and Rights Activists, Femi Falana, have started filing suits against the Federal Government for human rights violation in the country.

Falana, Senior Advocate of Nigeria, said this in a statement titled: “Demand for immediate release of detained labour leaders.”

He said the action was taken because the Muhammodu Buhari administration was not prepared to protect the human rights of the traumatised Nigerian people.

Falana said a team of human rights lawyers have been instructed to challenge the increasing human rights violations in the country.

He commended Femi Aborisade who has offered his pro bono services to the detained teachers in Oyo State.

The activist cited some incidences to butress his claim of human rights violations in the country.

Falana described what he termed “unprovoked attack” as “barbaric violation of the fundamental rights to life, dignity of person, freedom of expression, association and assembly of the protesters.”
