ISWIS SE03EP37 The "we will not forget" Episode

On the 20th of October, 2020, the Nigerian state unleashed military personnel on peaceful protesters advocating the abolition of the murderous and abusive Special Anti Robbery Squad (SARS), and requesting police reform. In the year since then, there has been extreme gaslighting , obfuscation of facts and denial of the carnage and deaths that happened at the Lekki Toll Gates. In this episode, we speak to eye witnesses, gunshot victims and bereaved loved ones on their experiences that horrible day, and their lives since then. We also chat with Falz about what the way forward could look like, as well as the importance of memorials and keeping hope alive. We must never ever forget what the #ENDSARS protests were about, the response of the Nigerian government and that very many people died, were horrifically injured and have had their lives changed forever.
