Falz and Mr
Macaroni say they will be staging a peace walk on Friday in commemoration
of the third anniversary of the EndSARS protest.
The protest, which erupted in October 2020, was sparked by
outrage over police brutality and extrajudicial killings in Nigeria.
The demonstrations led to the disbandment of the special
anti-robbery squad (SARS), a police unit that was accused of human rights
abuses.
Falz and Mr Macaroni have both been outspoken supporters of the #EndSARS movement.
On Thursday, the activists shared a flyer containing the
schedule of the walk via their individual social media accounts.
According to the flyer, the walk will start by 10 am and
buses will be available to pick up people at Oriental, Lagos.
In his post, Falz
wrote, “Tomorrow, we remember our fallen heroes. 3 years ago, they were
unjustly killed. We will never ever forget .”
In the same vein, Mr. Macaroni, via Instagram, said
the peaceful walk is not only for those affected on October 20, 2020 — but for
all victims of police brutality in Nigeria.
“3 Years now!!! We will never Forget!!! #EndSars!!!!We will
be walking peacefully to honour all those who lost their lives on
20/10/2020!!!” the comedian wrote.
“We also walk for all those who have lost their lives as a
result of police brutality in Nigeria!!! We walk in peace!!! We will never
forget!”
