A day I will never forget, a day we will never forget is 20:10:2020.
It is my hope that soon Nigeria and Nigerians would experience true freedom and democracy where human dignity and all of one’s rights will be upheld and preserved after all of our sacrifices, suffering throughout the Endsars protest and any other.
May God heal the wounds of those of us alive and grant peaceful rest to those who paid the ultimate price during the entire struggle and peaceful protest, console their families o Lord, Amen 🙏. They are the real heroes.

This is me on the 19th October, 2020 brushing my teeth in Alausa protest ground. As usual I was to head to Ikorodu to protest, return to Alausa in the afternoon and do vigil protest in Lekki toll gate till day break. I would have been in Lekki that 20:10:2020. I was held back in Ikorodu, still can’t explain how I got stuck and didn’t make it to Lekki that fateful day.
“After all our sacrifices, pain during endsars protest and any other, it is my desire that soon, Nigeria and Nigerians will enjoy true freedom, democracy where human dignity and complete human rights will be enforced and protected”.
