Looting Properties a Total Disrespect to Dead EndSARS Protesters – Davido

Nigerian singer, songwriter, and record producer, David Adedeji Adeleke, better known as Davido, has reacted to the lootings that trailed the shooting of #EndSARS protesters at the Lekki toll gate in Lagos.

Recalls that, last week, soldiers opened fire on EndSARS protesters, leaving many dead with many injured.

Following the incident, many private businesses were loot, government properties were destroyed, and police stations were burnt down.

Davido took to social media described the attacks as “disrespect” to citizens who died in the course of achieving the goals of the #EndSARS protests. See his tweet below:

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!!

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???

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.
