Popular rapper, Falz has come out to react to the arrest of famous Instagram comedian, Mr Macaroni and many other #OccupyLekkiTollGate protesters by the police. He recently had his say on his Instagram account, and Nigerians have been reacting.
According to him, the arrest of protesters proves that the Nigerian government is not concerned with upholding the country’s democracy or the rule of law.
He added that the display of force by the police is only meant to inspire fear in citizens, but the government should be ready for the consequences of its actions.
His words, “@mrmacaroni1 and a number of other innocent Nigerians have just been arrested at the Lekki Toll Gate for exercising their fundamental human right to protest.”
“The Nigerian government has shown by this senseless act that it is not concerned with upholding our democracy or the Rule of Law.”
“They are basically showing that they are not interested in serving justice as regards the 20th of October incident.”
“This show of force is supposed to make us fear for our lives, but the life we dey live no kuku get meaning before.”
“Absolutely nothing to lose at this point. They better be ready for the consequences of these actions.”
