Nigerian stars like Falz, Mr. Macaroni, and others have announced that there will be a second-year memorial to honour victims of the #ENDSARS protest who lost their lives in 2020.
The #ENDSARS movement was a peaceful protest organised and led by Nigerian youths in October 2020 to march against police brutality, bad governance, and other mind-shattering vices in the country. However, the protest was met by the gruesome massacre of civilians on October 20, 2020, at the Lekki-Toll Gate in Lagos.
Just like it was done in 2021, another memorial has been announced to take place at the spot of the massacre, Lekki Tollgate, on Thursday the 20th of October 2022.
Taking to Instagram on Wednesday, October 19th, 2022, ace rapper, lawyer, actor, and activist, Falz, shared a photo that had details of the said memorial. Tagged “Endsars Memorial 2.0”, it is scheduled to take place from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m Sharing the picture, Falz wrote:
We will never ever forget. 🕊️ 🕯️
See you tomorrow.
Internet comedian, actor, and activist, Mr. Macaroni, also took to Twitter to share the same photo. He wrote:
