He went on vent his anger, saying: "Sending the military to the streets to kill unharmful protesters because they are protesting for their right is uncalled for."
"Today, 20th of October 2020, you will be remembered in history as the first government that sent the military to kill its citizens."
"I'm ashamed of you guys, we tired of you guys and can't take this anymore, he said.
