Newsone reports that Nigerian rapper, Folarin Falana popularly known as Falz and Instagram comedian Debo Adebayo, also known as Mr Macaroni, have announced a memorial car procession in Lagos state, Nigeria’s commercial city, to mark one year anniversary of the #EndSARS protest.
This online news platform understands that Falz and Mr Macaroni took to their respective verified Instagram pages to share e-fliers of the car procession and the order of programme.
Newsone reports that the decision comes shortly after both entertainers accused the Lagos Police Command of stifling their anniversary protest.
While Mr Macaroni berated celebrities for ‘eating’ government money despite the latter’s restrictions on the protest, Falz on the other hand, accused the government of hosting events to distract youths.
Sharing the e-fliers on their separate Instagram accounts, Falz and Mr Macaroni wrote, “It is impossible for us not to memorialize our fallen heroes. We will never ever forget.
“Innocent Nigerian citizens waved flags and sang till they were shot at, injured and killed. We must never forget.”
“We’re rolling up in cars tomorrow to drive through the tollgate. We know their way, so a procession of cars is the safest option to minimize police harassment.”
“We will stay in our vehicles throughout. We have rides for people that need it. Each and every one’s safety is very important so please let’s move together.”
Meanwhile, Newsone Nigeria reports that the procession is scheduled to hold on Wednesday, October 20, at the Lekki Tollgate, from 8am till 10am.
