A Nigerian man identified as Oke was killed just three hours after he took to his Twitter page to say ‘Nigeria will not end me’.
Oke, who actively participated in the ongoing #EndSars protests, both online and offline, had taken to the platform to make the tweet earlier today.
He was reportedly shot in the neck few hours later and died immediately.
See his tweet:
