Brother Desmond D’Sa (1956 - 2026) nnimmobassey.net/2026/10/31/…
Des touched lives. He was a fighter. He stood with migrants and was solidly against xenophobic attacks. He stood with people and communities in their fights for environmental justice

At the rally against GMOs, the demands were simple: the government must provide a justice system that puts people first over profit.
What we eat must not be US!
We must take back our food sovereignty and reclaim ownership of our lives!
Nigerians have a right to safe food!
We do not want this technology in our food!

20.10.20.
A date that is forever etched in our national conscience.
#EndSARS. #LekkiMassacre.
A sad night six years ago.
Their voices mattered so they used it.
Their young lives mattered, yet they laid them down.
Today, we remember the lives lost, the pain of survivors, and the young Nigerians whose sin against their government was to ask for safety, dignity and an end to police brutality.
They will always be remembered because their supreme sacrifices are unforgettable.
May our remembrance remain a demand for truth, justice and accountability.
We will not forget. 🇳🇬

Acclaimed South African human rights lawyer and international jurist Navi Pillay was recently awarded this year's Nobel Peace Prize. She led the U.N. independent international commission of inquiry that concluded Israel had committed genocide in Gaza. “I've been accused of being biased and taking sides and speaking lies,” says Pillay.

Exactly, 6–years ago today, the Nigerian army and police killed at least 12 peaceful protesters at two locations in Lagos. The killings took place in Lekki and Alausa, where thousands were protesting police brutality as part of the #EndSARS movement.
Evidence gathered from eyewitnesses, video footage and hospital reports confirm that between 6:45pm and 9:00pm on Tuesday 20 October, the Nigerian military opened fire on thousands of people who were peacefully calling for good governance and an end to police brutality.
After the killings, Nigerian government hired online thugs to troll the victims: dead and alive:
