When Adesua Etomi-Wellington tweeted this, a twitter user replied saying, “In your house or on the streets?”. She commented saying, You don’t know people’s situations. Let those that can go out go out, let those that can tweet tweet, let those that can Instagram, post. Focus on the people doing absolutely nothing, like THE NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT.”
Hello, I’m Frank. I will NEVER support cybercrime or “yahoo”. I will also NEVER support the random harassment, shooting or killing of citizens by police/SARS/ARMY/Paramilitary/Politician’s Escorts etc. So.. #EndPoliceBrutality #EndArmedForcesBrutality

I’ve been taking the last few days to fully research on the topic of #PoliceBrutalityInNigeria, I didn’t want to jump on a hashtag before understanding the stories of the victims… + I’ve been deeply saddened at the fact that history continues to repeat itself.

Too many lives have been lost to injustice and brutality in this country. No cause justifies the killing of innocent people. Kudos to everyone risking it all by protesting! 💪 TOGETHER WE WILL WIN! #EndSarsNow #EndPoliceBrutality #EndSARSProtest

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
