A movement to stop police brutality in Nigeria has taken over the streets – and international headlines. #EndSARS, the youth-led movement demanding an end to police violence, and specifically to the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS), has created a moment of reckoning for Nigeria’s government. We spoke to protesters to hear what they have seen over the past two weeks, and where they think the movement will take Nigeria next.
