Yesterday felt like a bad dream. Of all the thing Yesterday felt like a bad dream. Of all the things we know the Nigerian government are capable of, mass murder of peaceful protesters was never one of them. The deep rooted corruption has gone on for far too long and there is no going back from this. The time we've all wondered about when change will come is finally here. Our legacy is now! I have seen a petition for the UK government to get involved going around, and I am hesitant to sign it. I do not think that calling on a godfather to chastise sons who are doing his bidding is a good idea. The last thing we need is Britain and its allies flooding into Nigeria in the guise of peace keeping. The West has never been good for Nigeria or Africa as a whole. We must find other ways to deal with our tyrant leaders. Na person wey dey alive they pursue dreams. Soro Soke ✊🏾 Slide 2&3 is a screenshot from @yagazieemezi succinctly explaining what transpired yesterday. 💔 Follow @feminist.co for updates & to donate _____________ #EndCorruption #Endbadgovernance #Notodictatorship

Nigeria is like a feral child. It is flailing, los Nigeria is like a feral child. It is flailing, lost in the wild and drunk on venom. My heart aches for what can be and in times like these, I feel helpless. I've watched the accounts from those on ground and I think, what can I do? What much can be achieved from me writing about this? And it is true that there isn't much that I can do, but together, there is much that can be done. Someone I admire said SARS is only a symptom of a bigger issue we have in Nigeria. This is a truth we all know too well. Like I said when I got back to London from "The Year of Return", what we do now will inevitably shape our future and those of the generations to come. It is time we hold people in power and high places accountable. You see an injustice of any kind anywhere by anyone? No more turning a blind eye! It is time to attack the beast from all angles. For most issues, I always look at the root cause for a long term solution. When the protests ends, what do we do next? SARS is only one of many to be purged from the system. For those in the country and those who yearn to return, what we do now will determine the liberation that we seek. What are you building today for tomorrow? How do we form a coalition and keep the momentum going? What are we doing to prepare ourselves for pivotal roles and how can we get involved in these processes? What we do today will determine our tomorrow. Our legacy is now. Today we want to #EndSARS in all of its forms. Then tomorrow we must put the beast down. The time to gather arms (knowledge of constitution, finances, networks, positive leaders & everything else) is now. The days of suffering and smiling must be over. Our legacy is now!
