EndSARS protests made me realise how the media can be used to brainwash people. It was so obvious what was going but we found a way to politicise the issue. We’ve spent the last 6 years arguing about who gave the order when the commander in chief at the time was clearly the president. How a former governor under whose watch SARS dehumanised people became the biggest beneficiary of the protest is something I still can’t wrap my head around. And now, the soldier who was the spokesperson for the army and denied the massacre now leads the security arm of the presidential campaign of the people who want a new Nigeria. On one hand, a governor does not have authority over the security forces in his state and on the other hand a former governor gives direct orders to soldiers to shoot at protesters.
