"You Don't Have The Right To Protest Against High Electricity Tarriff" - Police Tell Youths (Video)

IgbereTV reports that some Nigerian youths who took to the streets of Abuja to protest against the increased electricity tarriff, were spotted in a viral video being assaulted by some policemen.

One of the protesters, @AyowoleSanyaolu who noted that the protest at the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) office in Abuja was a peaceful one, said they were stopped by the policemen who assaulted them, telling them that they don't have the right to protest.

He tweeted:

"While we protest peacefully at @NERCNG , Abuja, against the thoughtless increment in electricity tariff, @PoliceNG descended on us fiercely. A number of us were mercilessly beaten and others were dragged like common criminals. But in all, we stood our ground. Tyranny will not win!"

Same police go pay new bill too

While Politicians quietly removed Electricity and petroleum subsidy from 2020 budget (leaving their own Jumbo Salary and Allowance).. Distribution Companies also inflated figures

Police fooling themselves

cool
Whenever I look at this country, I just weep.
Imagine the police telling Nigerians, they don't have the right to protest.
Are they not Nigerians? Are they foreigners?

The leadership of this country is a joke, I must say.

However, I won't be part of these protests, "cos these police can be trigger happy, and ones you're shot, you're gone, no one cares, your family will be the one to suffer.
I love my young family, I will rather hustle to put food on the table for my wife and kids, than die for this Banana Republic.

Let those that voted for change braze up, because they have seen nothing yet.

I heard, there are more police men in Edo Election, than there are in Southern Kaduna.
What a useless Nation

The end is near

The corrupt police are the oppressing arm of the fraudulent democratic government

But very soon a revolution will start and will be the end of all oppressions

Because God will raise up a king who will judge His people with righteousness and equity

But until then expect more bad news

Lol. Most times our security operatives in their overzealousness forget that they will benefit from the gains of such protests. The other time we read about a DSS operative that was killed by his kidnappers after ransom(either by his family or even DSS) has being paid. The same DSS personnels will assault and arrest citizens protesting against the security challenges we are currently witnessing across the nation

Honestly we are actually living in a totalitarian regime. These police men together with every other armed forces in Nigeria have been given an executive federal order by the presidency to stop any form of protest whatsoever so that it doesn't go into a large scale protest, they have also received incentives. Who else have received incentives by the government not to protest? The Nigerian labour Congress and some other groups. If you think your life matters to this government, you are an idiot and should never be taken seriously by anyone. It's too late people, nothing can be done anymore. As far as the ratio of the rich to the poor is kept at a certain constant level, there won't be any unrest.
