#EndSARS: Nigerian Celebrities Speak Against Police Brutality

Some Nigerian celebrities have called on the government to end police brutality as more evidence of illegal activities by Special Anti Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) emerged at the weekend.

As Nigerians took to Twitter to air their grievances and trend the #EndSARS campaign, celebrities such as WizKid, Rudeboy and Mercy Eke said the government needs to do more to protect the people.

Wizkid, in a series of tweets, called on Nigeria’s President Muhammadu Buhari to focus on issues affecting the country and youths instead of matters in America.

In a separate tweet, he also called on the Lagos State governor Babajide Sanwo-olu to do something about the SARS threat.

Governor Sanwo-Olu, however, replied to his tweets, highlighting efforts put in place by his government to protect the lives and properties of residence of Lagos.
