The comedian and activist stated this in Lagos on Friday while leading a peace walk to commemorate the third anniversary of the tragic event that led to the end of the #EndSARS protests.
Mr Macaroni said: ”The peace walk is to honour all those that lost their lives on October 20, 2020. We’ve done that. We want to walk back but the police don’t want us to walk back.
