DMW Huncho, Davido has lamented that the hijacking of the peaceful EndSars protests by hoodlums and thugs is a complete disrespect to those that lost their lives in the struggle.
In a series of Tweets, Davido made on the 25th of October, he wondered what was the gain in burning and looting private businesses.
The singer also wondered why police stations are burnt down when one of the demands of the protesters was better police welfare and training.
According to Davido, the country needs law and order for things to change.
“We need a Country where there is law and order for us to make any real change !!! Please stop!
It is painful that what started as a peaceful protest has been hijacked and turned into complete Anarchy, in total disrespect to those that lost their lives during the Peaceful protest. This is def not the way to honour those that lost their lives while protesting peacefully.
What is there to gain from burning and looting private businesses that provide employment to our own people?? Or burgling or burning houses belong to innocent citizens?! Or burning Buses that our own people depend on for transport to go to work and go about their lives???
Why burn police stations, when one of our demands was better police welfare and training??? Please stop stop stop stop! It all makes no sense whatsoever !! If you know anybody partaking in this, tell them to stop!!”

Several states in the country have been hit with widespread looting and destruction of private and government properties.
