Nigerian Anti-Violence Activist Kemi Omololu-Olunloyo Launches #StopViolenceNigeria Campaign.

Oct. 8, 2012 - PRLog -- Lagos, Nigeria (October 8, 2012 )  Nigerian Anti-Violence Activist and Music Journalist, Kemi Omololu-Olunloyo, also well known as Toronto, Canada's voice of the victims of gun violence has launched a Twitter hashtag online today. The hashtag named #StopViolenceNigeria was designed for Nigerians to start communicating about ongoing violence in Africa's most populous country.

"Communication about it is a key to how we can solve it, she told some media outlets via phone on Monday." She returned to Nigeria August 2012 after being deported from Canada for what many Canadian media outlets have called "her outspoken anti-gun views attacked by lies and deception of our government." She fled to Canada in 2007 after gun violence broke out in Nigerian media outlets during the elections. Omololu-Olunloyo had just moved back home in 2006 after 30 years in the United States.

Omololu-Olunloyo launched her twitter hashtag in response to the deadly week of violence in Nigeria during the independence celebration week, claiming up to 45 students in several locations including four University of Port Harcourt students beaten, tortured and burned alive as seen on YouTube as well as up to 41 students singled out, allegedly called by their names, then gunned down or throats slit in Adamawa State area Universities in Mubi, Nigeria.

Outraged at the stories, she is urging Nigerians to wake up and start supporting the Nigerian Police. "There is a mentality that the cops are corrupt and do nothing, so Nigerians have no trust in working as a community with their local divisional police officers. It is a two way street to help get rid of the hoodlooms, thugs and nonentities destroying our Nigerian communities. They must all be caught and dealt with" she said.

She wants all Nigerians to join twitter and be part of her movement. Every time an act of violence is perpetrated, citizens can begin tweeting the hashtag #StopViolenceNigeria and snitching out the culprits. "Snitching" is a word used in North America to rat out the people that perpetrate crimes by telling law enforcement and thus she was nicknamed "Snitchlady" in Canada. In December 2011, she appeared live on CTV news in Canada on the bombing of two churches on Christmas Day in Nigeria citing that these level of violence in Nigeria was unheard of.

Known in the City of Toronto as "MsKemi" or "The Snitchlady", Omololu-Olunloyo has helped Toronto Police with families of murdered victims in setting up appeal news conferences for them. She has helped 13 families, help get eighteen arrests and six convictions, all for gun murders and various shootings in Toronto, Canada.

Omololu-Olunloyo who is very outspoken now lives in Nigeria and continues to work as a Music Journalist and CEO of HipHossip LLC which owns HipHossip.com, the popular music blog, HipHossip.net, the concert and booking agency and HipHossip.org, a philantropic initiative using music to end gun violence. She recently re-incarnated her former on-air radio name "Kizzle" at Radio Nigeria's Premier FM due to pressure from her young fans asking her to return to radio.

Her GLOBAL twitter hashtag is #EndGunViolence and she continues to tweet about gun crimes on twitter @Snitchlady and music news @HipHossip.


She is available for all media interviews on request via phone, e-mail, arranged in person or skype. Her social media links are below.
