“They know my crowd ‘ya werey gan'(Crazy) I told you all already 99% Marlians are not on Twitter.

“After a week, if there are no changes on this FSARS issue as promised by Nigeria Police Force, then we will get back out there stronger.

“Stay safe and protest peacefully if you are protesting. End SARS brutality.”
