Talented Nigerian rapper, lawyer, and actor, Folarin Falana, better known as Falz pens a piece of advice to Governor Sanwo-Olu.

Recall that Sanwo-Olu pledged that speedy justice will be served. However, a Tweet by Falz advised the Nigerian Police Force, as well as Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu to bring to book and public all the details of the culprit.
He stated that if justice is not served, it will be interpreted “as an invitation to chaos.”

In his words:
“@jidesanwoolu @PoliceNG
When we refused to leave the streets in October 2020, we were referred to as recalcitrant #EndSars youth that just wanted to make trouble.
TWO YEARS after a panel made recommendations regarding those cases, they have still not been implemented.
@jidesanwoolu @PoliceNG
Another man in police uniform took the life of a pregnant Bolanle Raheem on Christmas Day.
If this person isn’t punished & all details PUBLISHED for everyone to see, I am afraid many will interpret that as an invitation to chaos.
Humble advice”
