#EndSARS: I signed petition against Nigeria – Ashimolowo
Pastor Mathew Ashimolowo of Kingsway Christian Center, KICC, has said that he’s among those who signed a petition against Nigeria over the EndSARS protests.
Ashimolowo said this when he made an appearance at his church in Maryland after a period of being away.
Speaking on the EndSARS protests, Ashimolowo said, “if they want to get me, let them get me, I am one of the people that signed the petition in London on #EndSARS protest and the Parliament will start hearing this week and if found guilty, Nigeria might be sanctioned.
“But the youth must arise and not expect things to be done. Do not chase after money, chase your purpose, everything will follow suit.”
Speaking on the effect of coronavirus in Nigeria, Ashimolowo said, “Nigeria I hail o, coronavirus dey fear una, people dey catch am everywhere but una strong o.”
The petition against Nigeria has been signed by 220, 296 people thereby attracting the attention of the British parliament.
“We were concerned by violence during recent protests and await the outcome of Nigerian investigations into reports of police brutality. We do not publicly speculate on future sanctions designations,” the parliament said.
