In the chat, Sabinus, whose real is Chukwuemeka Ejekwu, said he was invited but failed to attend because of what he described as “wrong timing”.
“I was invited for it but I don’t think this is the right time for it, truth be told. For a while, we’ve been asking that police brutality be stopped. This is something they’ve been promising us. But right now, it’s still going on,” he said.
“When it comes to campaigns, they come close to talk to us. But when they get into office, they’re far away.
“Then we have to come to them. It’s very wrong. They should come over and fulfill their promises. Going to meet them, for me, is a no.”
