Photos: Heavily armed Policemen take over Afrika Shrine to prevent #EndSARS meeting

The Fela Anikulapo Afrika Shrine this morning had been barricaded by heavily armed Nigerian Policemen in order to avert the scheduled End Sar Meeting which Seun Kuti had distributed flyers for.

All access road leading to the shrine has been blocked, recall yesterday Seun himself

shared on social media a copy of the letter he got from the Lagos state government which

strictly warned him not to hold any protest meeting at the relaxation spot.

Below is what was said in the Letter:

“You are hereby warned to suspend such gathering as any infraction that may emerge from

this gathering will be tagged a deliberate action to sabotage the transition and restoration

of the peace in Lagos State by the Lagos State Government and the Nigeria Police Force,” the letter read.
