Good day guys, welcome to another interesting article.
Please consider subscribing.

Over the past couple of days, Nigeria seemed to be on fire following the #ENDSARS protests. This movement aimed at curbing police violence famous amongst the infamous SARS (Special Anti Robbery Squad) division of the Nigerian police force.


Also a reason for the movement is calling for order and taking responsibilities seriously towards the citizens by government officials and politicians in their various positions and capacities.

This movement started with a series of peaceful and well coordinated protests. These protests were both endorsed and supported financially by several reputed individuals, NGOs, and civil societies including celebrities. Most financial contributions towards this were made by bank transfers, this was confronted with lots of rancor by the government as bank accounts aimed at receiving contributions were blocked.

As such transactions had to go crypto, after supposed million transferred was not accessible due to the blocked account. Supporters of the #ENDSARS MOVEMENT/ #ENDPOLICEBRUTALITY movements had to switch to crypto contributions, soliciting for payments in bitcoins. Thank God for bitcoins, thank God for cryptocurrencies in general.

Note that contributions made were used to feed protesters and provide basic amenities such as public toilets and tents for protesters, most of who stayed there both day and night fighting for our rights.

All these was the condition of the #ENDSARS protests before the protests turned bloody as a result of the #lekkimassacre in lekki toll gate Lagos state, Nigeria, where soldiers allegedly opened fire at night on protesters after switching off street lights at the toll gate.

I please ask for support for Nigeria in any and all ways you can financially, physically, online with your tweets and posts etc.
