More 48hours After The So Called LekkiMassacre..

We are yet to see anybody , relation , father or mother come forward to claim his/her was killed at the Lekki Toll...

We were really played...

But, My Prayer is that God Would Punish Every hand that knowingly tweeted and retweeted Falsehood and Fake news that led to the destruction of Yoruba land...

Well, BBC is actually right. Not all the pics was legit. At least I know this particular guy personally and was shocked to see his pix here.

However, the Lekki shooting happened and people were killed.
Yeah but why are some persons in a hurry to disprove claims while others accept claims?

What do they hope to achieve by bribing media houses.

Luckly theirs no TVC to help spread it. They went as far as to BBC to get a wider audience. The same way they said no one was killed at Lekki only to debunk it later because their was a video evidence.

“Anybody who cannot rise above tribal and religious sentiments in a multi-ethnic country like Nigeria cannot be a good citizen and good leader.
This is the greatest handicap most Nigerians have, and this is Gen. Muhammadu Buhari’s greatest setback as a leader that is making it most difficult for him to lead Nigeria as a whole”.

The Northern elites turned the south against themselves so as to continue using South West to remain in power.

See how close we were to the Revolution or at least Restructuring...

All hopes have now been dashed. We're back to square one.

They continue using our resources to better themselves, we continue suffering.

The blood of the Innocent Heroes shed in Lekki are now in vain. They died for nothing.
Soon they will rebuild the Toll gate and start collecting toll again

I spit on Southerners.. cry cry cry

What manner of foolishness is this. One of the most reputable media outlet in the world carried out investigative journalism on your behalf, which you were either too lazy to do or just didn't care.

That doesn't really matter to you. You sha want to ride and die with the fake news. Many of you don't care about the truth. You're just comfortable with what comforts you.

That is the lifestyle they chose to live.
Fake news that will cause unrest and killings is what makes them happy.

Re: EndSARS Protest: The Misinformation Circulating Online - BBC by Timmi: 7:23pm On Oct 23, 2020
It’s all propaganda, though every life matters, but only two confirmed dead.
It is unfortunate that those with ulterior motives push those with genuine concern to start unnecessary blockage of roads and they called that peaceful. When you disrupting other citizens from earning their livelihood simply because they didn’t support your cause, then you are inciting those other citizens to be confrontational or inviting authorities to clear the block roads so that people can go about their daily living.

Yes, you have right and freedom of association and protest but your freedom stops when you are infringing on the rights of other citizens (that do not share same sentiment) to their own livelihood.

You have people inciting others from the comfort of their houses in far away places, others that have an axe to grind with the government, and other criminal elements that were pushing for it to degenerate to the point where looting and stealing are the other of the day.
Yes, you might say the endsars movement wants peaceful demonstrations but you can’t control people’s intention.
We thank God that those seeking for genocide did not achieve their aim and should be in shame and hide their faces.

The Social media bill is long overdue.

The violent reaction to the Lekki assault which led to the destruction of lives and properties in Lagos escalated through series of unverified reports shared on Twitter.

Courtesy of Falz, one Debo Macaroni, Yemi Alade etc.

So Yemi Alade was involved?

If you believe those government lies trying to redeem itself, u can also believe that the protests never happened at Lekki toll gate afteral.

The thing is that whenever soldiers carry out extrajudicial killings like this, they always carry the bodies away to maintain absolute deniability. Some people are asking where is the bodies of those killed as if we don't know how soldiers operate once they carry out a massacre like this.
Re: EndSARS Protest: The Misinformation Circulating Online - BBC by Rebuke: 7:32pm On Oct 23, 2020
All this damage control and save face attempt won't work, rather, it will further complicate issues as it's obvious you people are not ready to repent from your attrocities.


Yes, I will agree there were some misinformation spread around but that doesn't negate the fact that people have been killed in the most unthinkable way by our uniform men.



Why the lies? You only pointed out the misinformation but didn't bother to also talk about the other ones that were real.


Keep defending yhurselves.

I read a post by one fool saying Lekki shooting wasn't true. Smh

Shame on all of you wicked ones trying to cover up for evil. There's just no way it can be well with yhu.

However, don't get the BBC involved in this payment NONSENSE.

The BBC had been in existence before many of us were born, broadcasting in many different languages around the world.

I started listening to the BBC World Service in shortwave radio in 1999 - thanks to my father

How much do you think you can bribe them with?

Again, the BBC is a credible media house headquartered at Bush House, London

BBC will always protect the interest of their company called Nigeria
They prefer northerners handling Nigeria affair because of their illiteracy and ability to bend to their will
While azikiwe was offer a ceremonial post
Northerners Having taught on how to use divide and rule tactics on southerners to keep them from retaliating or agitating
During biafra war they called all their business partners who took part in killing of Biafrans
So as to maintain their company
Thereby using the minority as the willing tools

Well said! You understand exactly what is going on.
