    Until today, I had no idea what was going on in the African countries. Thank you for keeping me informed.

    A wave of protests triggered by widespread lockdown? And then calls for censorship? Sounds familiar.

    0:49 okay what is it with this cheap-ass police logo with the letters going all sideways? Despite all their corruption money they still didn't have the budget to put them straight?

    Thanks for the video TLDR. Great video touching on the subject overall. In addition to your video, the Nigerian government also froze the accounts of individuals who were financially supporting the protests. Also, the Lagos state government and the Nigerian Army had a back and forth of "We didnt send the army"…"the government sent us"…."Ok we sent the Army but we didnt tell them to shoot".
    The army also took away some of the corpses of the people shot during the massacre.
    Also, the CCTV footage at the location of the shooting suspiciously stopped recording right before the shooting started.

    Basically, the Nigerian Government is trying to cover up the massacre as they always do and we need international attention to remain on this so that they wont be able to get away with it.

    Maybe this S.A.R.S. police force should advertise the benefits of A.I.D.S. in reducing obesity.
