Ahead of October 20 planned #EndSARS memorial protests, some activists have lined up events for the anniversary.

The activists are led by Sahara Reporters publisher, Omoyele Sowore.

According to flyers shared on social media on Thursday, it was indicated that events will begin with a Jumat service on October 15 at Jumaat Suadr Central Mosque, Ojota, Lagos.

This will be followed by traditional rites on October 16 at the New Afrika Shrine in Agidingbi, Lagos.

Memorial protests will also hold in major cities like Ibadan, Port Harcourt and Abuja.

The activists will also hold an event at the Lekki tollgate, Lagos on October 20.

This is despite the Lagos State Police Command warning against any form of #EndSARS protest, saying the state cannot afford a repeat of the destruction brought about by hoodlums who hijacked the protests of last year.

The Lekki tollgate was the epicentre of the #EndSARS protests of October 2020, which were against police brutality and bad governance.
