It was the second time that the singer
expressed solidarity with Nigerians .
Last October , Rihanna , 32 years old ,
also spoke out against the shooting at
the Lekki Toll Gate .
She said she could not bear to see the
torture and brutality that has continued
to occur not only in Nigeria but also
across the world .
“ I can’ t bear to see this torture and
brutalization that is continuing to affect
nations across our planet . It is such a
betrayal to the citizens , the very people
put in place to protect are the ones we
are most afraid of being murdered by .
My heart is broken for Nigeria . It is
unbearable to watch , ” she wrote on
Twitter in her reaction to the Lekki Toll
Gate shooting.
Rihanna , however , praised Nigerians for
their courage .
“ I ’ m so proud of your strength and for
not letting up on the fight for what is
right. #EndSARS , ” she added
