The reality star says he is passionate about the #Endsars movement and has not demanded money to take part in it.
Trikytee of Big Brother Naija has come out to deny reports on social media claiming that he asked for money before showing support for the #EndSARS protest.
The reality star denied ever requesting money from anyone in a series of posts shared via his Twitter page on Monday, October 19, 2020.
Denying the reports, Trikytee described himself as a Nigerian youth who is passionate about the movement, stating that there was no way he would sit out on the protest.
He went on to point out that he has participated in the campaign against police brutality both online and offline.
“I have seen tweets going round about me requesting for money to support the #Endsars protest with my people in Bayelsa,” he began. “Firstly that is not true and a lot of people can testify that I have been in support of this protest both online and offline.
“As a Nigerian youth, I am passionate about the movement to #EndSars and
#EndPoliceBrutalityinNigeria. There’s no way I would want to sit out the protest even when my management has requested I tone down. Why would I want to shortchange myself by asking for payment???”
