Nigerian musician, Tiwatope
Savage, popularly known as Tiwa Savage has called on Nigerian youths to stop
relying on celebrities and join the ongoing End SARS protest which is taking
place at different parts of the country.
Nigerian celebrities, including
Folarin Falana, popularly known as Falz and pop star, Runtown have joined other
Nigerians in a protest in Lagos calling for an end to police brutality and
extra-judicial killings.
Also, another group of protesters
who were led by Deji Adeyanju, convener of Concerned Nigerian, were seen
marching to the Force Headquarters, in Abuja, to protest the brutality and
alleged killings by operatives of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad holding
different placards.
Following the development, Tiwa
who is also one of the Protesters in a video shared via her Instagram account
on Thursday urged Nigerian youths to join the protest and let the government
know that they are tired of bad governance.
She also advised youths to stop
relying on celebrities adding that the country’s problem is for all and should
be solved by all.
According to her, “If Nigerian
youths don’t come out to protest they will think that we are jokers and that’s
why they don’t take us seriously.”
“Please nobody should put on any stupid
comments on my timeline.
“This is not a day for stupid
comments, everyone is out here protesting.
“We are protesting for our own
benefits. This is serious and it is no time to joke around.
“Nigerian youths you guys need to
wake up. There are people out there that have lost children.
“This is not a time to joke
because there’s nothing funny about this.
“They think Nigerian youths are lazy
and that’s why they don’t take us seriously.
“None of us wants to die as a
joke. You don’t have to rely on celebrities because you don’t call on them when
you are voting for Big Brother Housemates.
“Everyone should better come next
week Tuesday and join in this protest,” she said.
