Nigerian artist Falz has encouraged Nigerian youths not to be silenced by anyone as the EndSars remembrance protest approaches.
The talented Nigerian musician and activist Folarin Falana, better known as Falz has stated that concerts are being organized to distract youths from remembering those who died during the EndSARS protest last year.
The artist detailed the events of the protest in a statement titled ’20:10:20 [update]’ on Friday, claiming that no one has yet been punished for ‘heinous acts’ committed during the protest.
The Singer said on his Instagram page that no one has been punished for the crime since the terrible incident a year ago.

They killed innocent souls that were simply asking not to be killed or brutalized.
A year later, no one has been punished yet for those heinous crimes.
A supposed Police Commisioner “warned” against citizens exercising their fundamental human rights. Yes a Police Commisioner.
A couple of well meaning citizens decided to put together a summit to reflect on last year’s events & honour the lost souls. Event centre pulls out (“instructions from above”)
As I type this, there is already HEAVY police presence at the Lekki toll gate.
Best thing they could come up with is organizing “concerts” to try and distract us from remembering the real heroes in all of this. The people they murdered.
What we will never do, however, is be quiet.
We will NEVER EVER EVER EVER be silenced.
Not today, not on the 20th, not ever.
