Career
END SARS
FK alongside lawyer, Modupe Odele and other women of Fem Co contributed to the END SARS movement by creating networks that ensured the safety and release of illegally detained protesters across the nation. They also organized fundraisers and disbursed funds to different protest locations for supplies such as food, drinks, ambulance and private security. She also made calls to influential figures which aided the END SARS Lawyer network.
Her phone was bugged and calls monitored. For up to 10 days, she stayed in a safe house to evade government surveillance at her home. Clients and investors say she is too “politically exposed” to work with right now.
She joined Feminist Coalition in October 2020 as an auxiliary member.
