IG of police please tell your men to stand down!!! Protesters are unarmed! They can’t be shooting at unarmed civilians! It’s unacceptable. People have a right to peaceful protest and to feel safe! #EndPoliceBrutality #EndPoliceBrutalityinNigeria #SURULEREPROTEST

Lessons from Surulere’s Protest
Live at the Surulere protest, the police came and the crowd chased them. They reversed their cars.

I am advising security agencies to allow us exercise our rights as citizens to protest. This is a peaceful protest. The youths are on edge, don’t push us! #SARSMUSTEND
3 things i learnt from the Surulere Protest:

1. The govt can’t manage the police any longer. They have gone rogue.
2. Island protests have been peaceful with zero casualties cause classism is an important factor.
3. Our lives has no value to the Govt.#SarsMustGoNow #SARSMUSTEND

We'll see Mr Wike in court if he uses Nigeria Police/law enforcement agents to intimidate and harass Nigerian citizens simply for peacefully exercising their human rights. https://t.co/mqDHRfzjfM
