Ayo Akinfe
[1] We declare that from this date henceforth, we shall not flee in the face of attacks from the Nigerian security forces. Whenever we are holding peaceful demonstrations and the police and/or army are sent to shoot us, we will stay put and be shot. Martyrdom is a necessary price that has to be paid for freedom

We had our Sharpeville in Lekki
Ayo Akinfe
We had our Sharpeville in Lekki
A Tiananmen Square melee
Young people gunned down in their prime
Wanting good government was their crime
They seek to change society
Pressing leaders for probity
Asking that bad governance ends
And for past crimes they make amends
Youths want accountability
