Nigerian lives are Black lives. And it is not asking too much for the Black diaspora to stand in solidarity with us.

We have so much to learn from building coalitions with our siblings across the Africa and the diaspora. Now is not the time to start unnecessary diaspora wars.

It is not antiblack to ask African Americans to speak up about police brutality in Nigeria.

It's not antiblack to ask you to show empathy and stand in solidarity with us.

People are being killed and you want to start an unnecessary diaspora war? #EndSarsNow

The cultural capital that many African Americans have especially on Twitter means that their adding their voices to and amplifying #EndSarsNow would be great.

Nigerians are not asking you to save them. They are asking you to stand in solidarity with them. Please do better.

The silence of African celebs in Hollywood and the global diaspora is too loud. I've seen some African Americans use their platforms to bring awareness to the issue and we need more of them doing that.

Africans in Hollywood, we're watching you. #EndSarsNow

Some Nigerian celebs use their Nigerian parents as punchlines for their skits but are nowhere to be found when it's time to stand up for Nigerians.

You can share Naija jollof recipes with your lil yt friends but you can't call out police brutality in Nigeria? #EndSarsNow

Let's end the diaspora wars and start building diaspora coalitions. Our ancestors: Maya Angelou, Kwame Nkrumah, Malcolm X, Kwame Toure, Miriam Makeba, Sankara, Mandela... did it. So can we. #EndSarsNow
