‘Release all Arrested Protesters’- Mr Macaroni makes demand at #EndSARS 3rd Anniversary

Nigerian actor, Adebowale Adedayo, popularly known as Mr Macaroni has demanded an immediate release of all the arrested protesters that were detained during the #EndSARS protests that rocked the country in 2020.

Mr Macaroni made the demand when he led a peaceful protest rally to mark the third anniversary of the Lekki shootings of October 20, 2020.

In his words, “We are here to honour the dead, to honour the lives of those that were lost on October 20, 2020.

I want to use this opportunity to call for the unconditional release of all those who are still unjustly imprisoned.

There are still some protesters who have been in prison since 2020, lawyers have been on the case every day but till now they’re still there. We are using this opportunity to call those concerned once again for the unconditional release of the protesters” .

There are no buses at Oriental again so no one needs to gather around the bus stop. Please join the walk from anywhere you can. And if you can’t, just say a word of prayer for all those who have lost their lives to police brutality. Again, this is a peaceful walk to honor all…
