Sarkodie, renowned as one of Africa’s most prominent rappers, has now lent his support to the ongoing peaceful protest known as #OccupyJulorbiHouse. This decision comes after numerous Ghanaians urged him to join the cause, especially since he had previously shown solidarity with Nigeria during their EndSars protest.
In a recent Twitter post, he expressed a powerful sentiment, stating, “You can only be scared of a peaceful protest when you know you deserve otherwise…”
Sarkodie appears to be emphasizing that fear or unease surrounding a peaceful protest only arises when those in power or authority recognize that their actions or decisions are deserving of scrutiny, criticism, or change. In essence, if there’s nothing to hide or be concerned about, a peaceful protest should not be a cause for alarm.
