WEDNESDAY, 20th October, 2021: A protest to mark the first anniversary of #EndSARS movement has begun at Unity Fountain in Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory.
Protesters gathered with a big banner, with the inscription, ‘We never forget. 20.10.20. #EndSARS memorial.’
Likewise in Lagos, celebrities and activists have joined a car procession at the #EndSARSMemorial protest at Lekki tollgate in Lagos.
This development comes despite a ban on protests in Lagos and the heavy presence of armed police personnel at the tollgate.
The celebrities and other activities who turned up at the tollgate with their cars were seen waving Nigerian flags from inside the vehicles and honking the horns while singing solidarity songs.
In Abuja, however, protesters can be seen raising placards, and chanting, as they gathered at Unity Fountain.
