#EndSARS: Adekunle Gold, Simi & Reekado Banks Join The Campaign

Nigerian singers, Adekunle Gold, Simi & Reekado Banks have joined the #EndSARS campaign on social media.

The singers shared their nasty experiences with the Special Anti Robbery Squad operatives.

According to Simi, the operatives pointed guns to her and her friends for laughing.

People are not supposed to be afraid of the people that are supposed to be looking after us. A couple weeks ago, at almost midnight, my friends and I had a gun pointed at us for laughing. For laughing.
Their boss had to talk him down! Pointing a gun at 3 ladies because of your insecurities is incredibly frightening! Policemen need to be mentally evaluated and checked before being handed guns. And they need to be accountable!! Otherwise, they can get away with anything.she said

Adekunle Gold also narrated that SARS operatives arrested him without a cause and extorted some amount of money from him.

I have experienced the brutality from some power drunk #SARS police officials as well. Hoping the govt can act swiftly on this one.
I’ll never understand why a police officer will forcefully arrest you and take you to the nearest atm to withdraw your money for them. Robbery!
They’ll go through your phone and be looking for the international calls you made, because you have to be a fraudster to call your loved ones abroad. This Rubbish needs to stop.

Top 10 Most Beautiful Campuses in Nigeria

Posted by: Lekan Olofinji in Articles , Real Estate . Compiling a list of the top 10 most beautiful campuses in Nigeria was never going to be an easy task considering the vast array of universities in the country, albeit we came up with a list anyways. Whether you agree with me on this or not will now be a question of how many people are on my side on this. That notwithstanding, that a University looks ancient in terms of the building inherent shouldn’t disqualify it from making this list, what should matter is if the architectural designs and structure of the buildings have remained intact over the years. So, yes! you will see a quite a number of first generation universities on this list not because they necessarily have the finest buildings but because their architectural designs, landscapes and structures cannot be compared to what is obtainable in our new generation universities especially the private institutions. There are over 90 universities in Nigeria ...
