Nigeria’s Minister of Youths and Sports Development, Sunday Dare, has pleaded with popular rapper, Naira Marley, to stop his protest scheduled to hold today against police brutality.






The singer had earlier announced that the protest will begin by 9am at the second toll gate in Lagos.




Naira Marley, who had initially declined participation in any protest over fear of being imprisoned, added that the protest must be peaceful, and free from stealing or vandalism.





His Tweet Read;



“So 9am tomorrow we move

2nd toll gate

Peaceful protest

No vandalism, no fights and no stealing.”



However, Dare took to his official Twitter handle to ask the Opotoyi crooner to stop the protest slated for today.

If they like, they should address it. The youth has geared up to damn the consequences. The harrasment, intimidations and brutal killings will no longer be condoned.
