Arsenal Football Club has reacted to the #EndSARS protest against the extrajudicial activities of the now-defunct Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) in Nigeria.
KanyiDaily recalls that there had been an #EndSARS protest across the country against the SARS tactical unit of the Nigerian Police Force over its brutality, illegal arrest, extortion, extra-judicial killings, among others.
On Tuesday night, October 21, 2020, Nigerian Soldiers opened fire on the peaceful protesters at the Lekki toll gate, Lagos, killing about 15 people and injuring so many others.
Reacting on its Twitter page on Saturday, Arsenal FC stated that they felt the pains of Nigerians and their thoughts are with the citizens.
“To our Nigerian fans. We see you. We hear you. We feel you.
“We have read our replies. We have seen the footage. We cannot imagine the pain.
“Our thoughts are with everyone in Nigeria,” the club wrote.
KanyiDaily recalls that Arsenal player, Mesut Özil had also declared support for the #EndSARS protests saying what is happening in Nigeria is horrible.
