#EndSARS: Arsenal FC Sympathises With Nigerian Fans

 

 

 

Arsenal have sympathised with their Nigerians fans over the crisis that followed the #EndSARS protests in the country.

The club tweeted on Saturday that it had seen “the footage” and could not imagine the pain.

Though the club did not state exactly which footage, hundreds of protesters were shot by soldiers in the country at the Lekki toll gate on Tuesday.

The footage of the soldiers firing live ammunition at the protesters has since gone viral and attracted condemnations globally.

“To our Nigerian fans. We see you. We hear you. We feel you. We have read our replies.

“We have seen the footage. We cannot imagine the pain. Our thoughts are with everyone in Nigeria

Stay strong. Stay safe,” the club tweeted.
