When the #EndSARS protests against police brutality in #Nigeria first started in the beginning of October, the world didn't pay much attention.
However, after Nigerian security forces open fired on peaceful protesters in Lagos on Tuesday, violence in Nigeria finally captured the attention of the world. Amnesty International said at least 12 protesters were killed.
"At last," said Emmanuel Igah, director of Phobos International Consultancy. "Nigerians can now be happy to at least see that there is total world attention on what's going on."
Besides getting the world's attention, many Nigerians are also glad to see this movement uniting the entire society because #police brutality touches everyone in Nigeria.
