Human rights activist and lawyer Femi Falana has urged the Federal Government to compensate the families of those involved in the recent stampedes in parts of the country.

Falana stated this on Friday in Akure during a programme organised by the Ondo State Government, tagged Akeredolu Leadership Lecture Series, in honour of the late governor.

The lawyer blamed the Nigeria Police for the recent stampedes in Ibadan, Anambra and Abuja, where over 65 people died in the process of collecting palliatives.

According to him, the police failed to adequately protect people during the gatherings.

“It was failure of security; it’s not poverty that caused all the loss of lives.

“If there is any process or gathering, they, the police, shall provide security,” the lawyer said.

Falana said that Ondo State has become a reference point for states in the country by ensuring peace in its domain through the creation of the Ondo State Security Network, codenamed Amotekun, by Akeredolu.
