#EndSARS: Protesters in Abuja also observe candlelight procession for victims of police brutality

#EndSARS protesters in Abuja converged at the Unity fountain on Friday October 16 for a candlelight procession in honor of all victims of police brutality.

The protesters on Friday started the session with Christians and Muslims praying for the souls of those that have been killed by men of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS).

After the prayers, the protesters sang the National Anthem in respect of the country.

This is the 10th day since the youths began taking to the streets and despite efforts by the government to quell the protests, it appears to have gained more momentum.
