Different Ways You Can Participate In The #EndSARS Movement

Created to serve and protect the people of Nigeria, Special Anti Robbery Squad(SARS) has become an even more dreadful organisation to the Nigerian Youth. #EndSARS is a movement by the youths calling on the Nigeria government to abolish SARS from their communities.

The #EndSARS movement has always been ongoing from week to week with the killings, robberies, extortion and abuse of Nigerian youths. However, this seems to be the biggest movement yet and we need all the voices we can get.

Youths have taken to the streets of Lagos, Benin, Owerri, Enugu, Abuja and other major cities in Nigeria a peaceful protest, and although we are all riled up about this, unfortunately, not everyone can participate in a protest.
