Mr. Kelechi “Kaycee” Madu, a Nigerian-Canadian lawyer and politician who is the current Minister of Justice and Solicitor General of Alberta has joined the EndSars protest

Madu, in his Tweeter handle sighted by TheNigeriaLawyer (TNL), said he supports the protest because his brother was killed in 2013 by the police and his petition against the murder did not yield any positive result

“I support the people of Nigeria as they protest to end police brutality and extrajudicial killings. My own cousin Chrisantus Nwabueze Korie was murdered by Nigerian police in April 2013.

“Despite my best efforts, the police would not investigate his murder and did everything to obstruct. I also helped to petition a committee of Nigeria’s National Assembly to probe the killing and report back to the House within a timely manner.” the tweet reads

He added that “Fundamental human rights like peace, security and freedom from police brutality are universal. The Nigerian government has an obligation to protect its citizens and deliver substantive police reform.”

Therefore, the Canadian Minister encouraged Nigerians to rise up and be heard.

He said “Changing the name of SARS and reconstituting it without significant reform won’t be sufficient to satisfy the cry of the Nigerian people for justice.”

“Edmund Burke wrote that, ‘the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.’

“I encourage all Nigerians to stand up and be heard.”
