I don't care what this useless government has to say. We know that those inmates were released by opportunistic thugs and not peaceful protesters.

*Who is afraid of the Nigerian Youths Revolution?*

Last night the Federal Minister of Information, Alhaji Lai Mohammed was on the National Television, the NTA, ostensibly to educate Nigerians on what the Buhari government has done to pacify the EndSars Nigerian Youths protesters.

Maybe due to the weight of the subject or the scare most the government people have received since the protests started, Mr. Lai Mohammed, looked pale and sickly. He was beside himself without his usual gift of sophistry. And he, of course, laboured hard to do justice to the topic.

I was not convinced in the least. I do not know about you.

During the course of the programme, Alhaji Lai kept repeating the fact that the government had granted all the requests of the protesters and yet they have refused to leave the streets and allow for a free flow of human and vehicular traffic.

He even went as far using the unfortunate incident at Osun State involving Governor Gboyega Oyetola as a case study that the protests have been hijacked by what he called, " the enemies of the country". And he, like other highly placed Nigerians and the beneficiaries of the lopsided system Nigeria operates, is frantically looking for the the sponsors of the EndSars Movement.

In a note of resignation, Lai Mohammed who eventually occupied a major portion of today's Radio Nigerian news with his preachment on the futility of continuing with the protests, asked, "What do the protesters want?"

I will answer him right away.

Mr. Lai Mohammed, Nigerian Youths are tired of the system that has made Nigerians fugitives, refugees, and victims of government insensitivity, in their own country. And there are thousands of reasons for such a protest to go on and on.

While the problem did not start with the Buhari government but an objective analysis of his administration will reveal a sinister plot of the gradual *Northernization* of the Nigerian Federation.

Never in the history of this country has a President been this insensitive to the plight of Nigerians. Nor is there any comparison in our history of the kind of ethnic agenda the Buhari government is a champion of.

*are all headed by the people from the North*

Buhari has *captured* Nigeria for his people.


What Othman Danfodio could not do with his sword. What Ahmadu Bello failed to achieve despite his aristocratic posturing. What IBB never contemplated even with his guile. What Abacha never thought of with his brashness and devil may care attitude.

*But Buhari has done it.*

And will someone inform Mr. Lai Mohammed that none of the federations that were structured the way Nigeria is now ever lived to tell their stories?

Nigerian Youths want besides a holistic *Police Reform*,

*Judicial Reform*
*A People's Constitution*
*Electoral Reform*
*Civil Service Reform*
*Access to opportunities*
*End to Quota System*
*Reduction in the Cost of Governance*
*Health Sector Reform*
*Education Sector Reform*
*End to the State of Origin Requirement*
*Transparency in Government business,*
among others.

If President Buhari cannot guarantee the fulfilment of these demands in record time, then let him resign and go home.


In the meantime, *Let the Protests go on. Nigeria belongs to the Youths!*


*

*GoldFacts...the truth as it is*

dokie:
Shame no dey catch una.

Protesters without guns overpowered prison wardens and set prisoners free even though the protesters didnt open the gates of the prison yard or break its walls.

Talk about giving a dog a bad name in order to kill it.

boman2014:

The Federal Government has condemned
Monday’s invasion of the Nigerian
Correctional Service NCoS Custodial
Centres in Benin City and Oko in Edo state,
saying it has begun a manhunt for about 1,
993 inmates who were freed from both
facilities.

Minister of Interior, Ogbeni Rauf
Aregbesola disclosed this in a statement
issued Tuesday in Abuja and signed by the
Director, Press and Public Relations in the
ministry, Mohammed Manga.

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2020/10/edo-jailbreak-fg-launches-manhunt-for-1993-fleeing-inmates/

So Rauf Aregbesola, can issue statement this fast

When will you update us with the number of Bokoharam released into the society

How about bandits butchering Nigerians in broad daylight, especially in the Northern part of Nigeria, when will you condemn it

The North is equally bleeding, when will you talk about it
