Several Nigerians on Social media have reacted to Governor Yahaya Bello’s interest in leading the #EndSARS protesters. Bello, in a televised broadcast on Monday, volunteered to represent the protesters, vowing to make sure that their demands were met.
Speaking on AIT, he said; “I volunteer to be the leader that will push down all of their demands and make sure it is met.”. He also revealed that he plans to march with youths from Kogi to Abuja on the 24th of October.
His comments were not received well as many citizens wasted no time in expressing their rejection. Below are tweets from different Nigerians on the development;

@SodiqTade; “Thoughts and prayers are with the people of Kogi. Having Yahaya Bello as the State Governor and Buhari as President is the height of political depression. This too shall pass.”
“Yahaya Bello wants to lead End Sars protest. Lol He must have mistaken the movement for ‘thugs movement’.”
