The singer in an interview with DAILY POST on Saturday said the protest is not only about an end to police brutality but also a call to end bad governance in the country. He said Nigerians are tired of suffering and smiling. According to Kelvin, peaceful protest is the only way to cry out and let the world know that everyone is tired of bad governance in the country. “The protest is a natural cause. The oppressed are already tired of being oppressed. “The protest is about ending police brutality in the country. Nigerians are tired of suffering and smiling. “We are seeking for our rights to be treated as one because we are the taxpayers. We are the ones paying these government officials. “There are lots of cases of injustice in this country because these police officers treat people badly. “The oppression is just too much, for instance, if a young person is seen wearing dreadlocks, has tattoos or earrings just like I do, the person is automatically labelled a thief or fraudster. “This end SARS movement isn’t the main problem because people could have called an end to the protest since a new unit has been created. “There are other sensitive things they want to talk about. They are tired of bad governance. [url=https://dailypost.ng/2020/10/17/end-sars-we-need-people-who-can-relate-to-our-pains-in-presidential-panel-symply-tacha/][/url] “Our leaders are just wicked because they travel to other countries and they see how these things work yet they aren’t doing anything to better this country. “It’s so hard to be in now and making an earnest living because everyone is just working to survive not working because they have passion for their jobs. “I honestly hope that the government will heed to the outburst of the poor masses. ” I am sure they don’t know or understand how people struggle to survive in this country because they live in glass houses. “I really hope that the government does a total reform not just reforming the police, rearrange, reorient them, restrategize their mode of operations and give them more education for their jobs and human relationships. “They should just listen and find a way to end this peacefully.The looters should return the money they stole, the ones that are still planning to loot should change their mind sets,” he said.

They have released a list of demands, tagged the 5 for 5, which they insist the government must meet to show they are serious about ending SARS and not just paying lip service as has been done in previous years. The youths insist the protests will continue until these demands are met. The demands are:

"The extent and degree of oppression is a function of the oppressed" Nigeria First salutes the sagacity of Nigerian youths who have stood up for their future. Nigerian First believes that the slogan is #EndSars but it is about Misgoveramce since 1960 Lack of basic healthcare Epileptic power supply No security Inhuman and anti people economic policies Infrastructural development And alot more. Nigeria First is taken aback by the lackadaisical attitude of the government in responding to the demands of the Nigerian youth. Rather than tackle the issues from the roots the government has engaged in rhetorics and naming ceremonies. Nigeria First unequivocally condemns the attempt by the state to deploy soilders to quell the protest. Nigeria First wishes to remind the state that the name is Nigeria Army and it main duty is to defend the territorial integrity of Nigerian and not to kill it's citizens. Nigeria First enjoins the Nigerian youths to be steadfast and continue the protest peacefully. Nigeria First identifies with the matyrs of this struggle who have paid the ultimate sacrifice. You sacrifice for a greater Nigerian will not be in vain. We call on Labour, the private sector and all Nigerians of goodwill to support this protest anyway possible. If you can be on the streets, provide logistics and basic necessities to make the protest a success. Finally we call on our leaders across board to please reform Nigeria and let Nigerians believe in their nation. GOD bless Nigeria GOD bless the youths of Nigeria GOD bless Nigeria First.

Yesufu was among the women protestors at Nigeria's National Assembly, in the nation's capital, Abuja, on 30 April 2014. She has also been at the forefront of the End SARS movement, which draws attention to the excesses of a controversial police unit in the Nigeria Police Force, called the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS). Yesufu has said she "would not leave the fight against End SARS protest in Nigeria for her children." Unfortunately, many think she is just a street tout who enjoys coming out to rant and seek for media attention. Well, I hope these pictures of she and her family corrects the impression some people have of her. She is not only a voice, but she's also a wife, a mother and her husband supports her movement. |
