NAACP Seeks Protection

June 19th, 2015 by Mike Vasilinda

The head of Florida’s NAACP met with the Department of Law Enforcement and the FBI in the State Capitol today seeking protection. Adora Obi Nweze is set to open a new chapter in rural Wakulla County tomorrow after several churches had the initials KKK spray painted on their signs or building. NAACP State President Adora Obi Nweze says what happened in Charleston S.C. was unimaginable, yet fears it could happen here as well.

“Here we are thinking we can go to a church and be safe and be able to praise our god or whomever we serve in our sanctuaries, and never thinking that you would have to worry about someone walking in and sitting there with you and shooting and killing people” says Obi Nweze.

The chapter in the county south of the State Capitol will boast more than 100 members when it is officially chartered on Saturday.
