EndSARS: Arsenal send message to Nigerian fans

As the dust continues to settle after days of protests and destruction of lives and properties across the country, Nigeria and Nigerians have continued to attract empathy from the international community.

The latest is from English Premier League giants, Arsenal, who Saturday posted their heartfelt message on their Twitter handle enjoining Nigerians to stay strong in this difficult period.

The North London club enjoys a lot of followership in Nigeria since the exploits of Nwankwo Kanu with the Gunners from the late ’90s.

The club wrote: “To our Nigerian fans we see you, we hear you, we feel you, we have read your replies, we have seen the footage. We cannot imagine the pain. Our thoughts are with everyone in Nigeria. Stay Safe.”

Since the inception of the #EndSARS protest, popular figures in football circles including the Super Eagles captain, Ahmed Musa, and many of the other national team players have lent their voice and support to end police brutality in Nigeria.
