Don't get your validation from the comment section. Otherwise, eventually and inevitably, you will get your condemnation from there as well.

Lagos turned off the lights & removed cameras. Military showed up & opened fire on peaceful protesters. Today the Army denies it, the Governor says it was "forces beyond our direct control", the IG & Security Chiefs still have jobs, and the President is silent. What a disgrace.

What do we think about having a nationwide zoom conference? We can share victims stories, talk about our protest experiences, and exchange ideas about the way forward. We can't lose hope. It's a marathon not a sprint. Police reform is just step one, the journey has just begun.

Surulere: Lawyers are not being allowed into the station at Area C to see the Protesters that were arrested. They're being falsely accused of crimes they didn't commit. Ojah B is an Artist manager, not an armed criminal. The Commissioner of Police PLEASE DO THE RIGHT THING!!.

The Govt must #EndSarsNow. But we can't stop at the ban, because the same bad officers will still be in the Police force and just continue the behaviour. #EndSARS but also commit that any officer involved in extortion or brutality is immediately suspended, investigated & charged.

How many young Nigerians will have to be robbed/ kidnapped/killed by SARS before our Government takes it seriously? The "Special Anti-Robbery Squad" is doing the robbing?! Such a disgrace. What will it take for our "leaders" to do something about it? #EndSARS #EndSarsNow.
