Stakeholders of the EndSARS protest in Osun have reacted to the fresh rallies which started in Osogbo recently.
The activists in a letter to the Department of State Service (DSS) distanced themselves from the protests, The Sun reports.
The letter was jointly signed by Ismaheel Abdulazeez, the state's chairman of the Nigerian Youth Council, and Teslim Salawudeen, the president of the National Association of Osun State Students (NAOSS).
In their opinion, they stated that the rekindled rallies are needless following the ongoing proceedings of the judiciary panel of inquiry set up by the state government.

The activists stated clearly that the leader of the protest, Emmanuel Adebayo, is impersonating the EndSARS movement in Osun by making it his personal rally.
They expressed shock that Adebayo went ahead with the rallies without their notice and written approval.
Part of the letter read:
“Emmanuel Adebayo is impersonating the EndSARS movement in Osun to make it look like his personal estate and anything that do not benefit him personally is anti-EndSARS movement.
“How and what informed the new protest without recourse to others who are stakeholders is still amazing.
“As responsible youths with a high stake in the progress and development of Osun, we are under obligation to intimate the security agencies of this ulterior motive and completely dissociate ourselves and our organisations from such protest
“We also urge our youths to desist from being a willing tool in the hands of those who are hell-bent to use EndSARS protest as a cover to promote personal interest at the detriment of the security of the state.”
Earlier, some youths in Osun had started another round of EndSARS rally. The protesters, mainly youths, were said to have marched to the road leading to the state House of Assembly in Osogbo on Monday, December 7.
The young Nigerians, who staged the rally on the platform of Face of #EndSARS Movement, were led by Adebayo.
