If there is anything I have learnt from this movement, it is the fact that the majority of the adults in Nigeria have a warped perception about the Nigerian youths (1/10)
#EndSARS #EndBadGovernanceinNIGERIA
The silence from “their” corner is so loud, it is safe to deduce that they “indirectly” support SARS as they saw majority of the youths as riff-raffs! (2/10)

Dear Nigerian adults, the youths are perceived to be “riff-raffs” because of the environment they inherited from you! (3/10)
