    They were allegedly sent by the popular leader of NURTW, Mc Oloumo while other rumors have it that they were sponsored by the Speaker of the Lagos House of Assembly, Hon Obasa.

    Nigerians artists alongside Nigerians have condemned the attack, calling it cowardice.

    Tiwa Savage wrote;

    “Close colleagues of mine at Alausa just confirmed that thugs just came to disrupt their peaceful protest. Please spread the word. Our right to peaceful protest will not be taken away. Why use violence against peaceful protestors?”

    “We can never understand, Armed thugs in a government owned bus, fighting the same youth trying to change the narrative, what a shame.”

    While Praiz accused the Government of being behind the attack,

    “The Government is clearly bankrolling these thugs.”
