‘My Father Would Have Been Proud Of The ‘Lazy’ Nigerian Youth’ -Late Dele-Giwa’s Daughter Speaks On #EndSARS Protest


Ayodele, daughter of the late journalist, Dele-Giwa has lent her voice to the EndSars protest adding that her father would have been proud of the youth.

She said this on the 34th anniversary of his gruesome murder via her Twitter page.

The Newswatch co-founder was killed by a parcel bomb in his Lagos home on  October 19, 1986, at just 39 years.

I was 1 when he died, so all I know are stories from family and pictures. But one thing I am sure of: he would be so proud of what the “lazy” Nigerian youth have been doing over the past 11 days. He would have been 73 this year, & he would have come out to protest with the youth.

It’s what he fought for. 34 years later, we are still fighting. But it will be different this time. Things will change. Our eyes have opened WELLA. E go shock them. RIP Daddy (struggle to say it sometimes). Wish I knew you for myself.
