Oba Of Lagos Rilwan AkioluAppreciate The Effort Of Army During EndSARS

 




The Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu, has praised the Nigerian army for its intervention during #EndSARS protests despite sweeping criticisms of the latter for opening fire on unarmed protesters at Lekki Tollgate.


In October 2020, thousands of youth demonstrated across the country for days in protest against decades of police brutality and other human rights abuses by defunct police department tagged Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS).



Mr Akinolu who hosted the Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Farouk Yahaya, at his palace on Tuesday, said although several Nigerians criticised the army for shooting protesters, he appreciated their efforts.


“I appreciate the efforts of the Nigerian Army during the #EndSARS’ protest.


“Many people criticised them for coming out during the protest but it was good they came out when the police could no longer handle the situation,” he said.


This is one of the Fools Parading Themselves as King in Yoruba Land. Ofonu Oba.
