Kwanza:
Loatsad Promomedia has issued a statement clearing up rumours that it played a role in the attack on #EndSARS protesters at Lekki Tollgate on Tuesday evening.

The media company owned by Seyi Tinubu, son of Popular Lagos politician/APC national leader, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, disclosed that they shut down their billboard at the Lekki Toll gate based on an order by the state governor, Baba-jide Sanwoolu.

The statement read in full:

“When we started in 2014, we had a plan to change the perception of African start-ups in the global space. We believed as Africans, we could create something great and we set out with a N4m loan from a bank and we started trading, going from door to door begging for work and relentlessly grew the business employing and empowering over 200 Nigerians today directly or indirectly. We have supported many upcoming businesses, artists, people in need as giving back to our community has always been our passion (all this can be verified).”

“All of our achievements thus far have come the from hard work, sweat and determination of our work force and everything Loatsad has been doing has been open, all taxes are remitted and payments to agencies and regulatory bodies have been timely, so we can be proud to say we are contributing the growth of the industry and Nation.”

“When the “EndSars” and “say no to police brutality” protests started from day one we wholly supported the movement and used all our platforms to promote the messages (I believe the promoters can verify this information) as we believed in the cause.”

“On Tuesday when the curfew was announced we heeded the governors warnings and didn’t want our staff in any danger, hence by 3pm our staff had been ordered to leave the site and the board was switched off based on the governors curfew request.”

“We had no idea what was going to happen and we feel the same anguish, pain and shock at the events that unfolded and our hearts and prayers go out to the victims and families of this ungodly act.We believe in this movement and that it was the start of the change our generation needed to move our country forward and we will continue to support the youths of this great nation.”

You wicked Supporters of this satanic administration because of your belly. May your life be ruled like Buhari is ruling Nigeria. You will get your reward even if it's in the next life. You can't escape it!

Revolution is now!

#End_SWAT
#StopMassacreNow
#Restructure_NIGERIA

If u think i will support protesters mingling with hoodlums and getting killed along with them then u have failed. Since hoodlums have overpowered the peaceful protesters the right thing to do is to go home.

When the curfew was announced most companies shut down including the billboard company. Or would u have preferred they left their staffs in danger. Lets call a spade a spade. Hold the people who switched off the lights and removed the cameras responsible. They never ever said, sanwo olu ordered them to specifically shut down the billboard.

u were not shouting revolution is now last year when it was time for election. U guys were busy scrambling which party will favour ur tribes more. Now we have elected buhari, lets enjoy the ride

If I may ask civil war between who and who.
To have a civil war you need at least two sides fighting each other. In this case the southerners are not ready to fight each other and the northerners are not ready to fight the south so oga where is your civil war coming from.

Don't mind him. Very senseless post. The worst we can do now is to chase all the stupid politicians out of the country. Nobody is fighting any damn war.

My elder bro just called... Igando police station is on fire atm... Lagos is over... There will be a civil war that affects everyone in Nigeria and not only the igbos this time...history will be repeated and repacked just like buharis was.

I was there live. I've never witnessed what I saw today. There's total anarchy. A lot of things go unreported about this protest. People are being killed recklessly. I can't blame the hoodlums on Igando case, Police fired and killed about five people and stray bullet also killed a child on her mother's back which infuriated the crowd. The Police ran inside the station and locked themselves in seeing the crowd were calling for more people to come. The police quickly got across to soldiers who came in two hilux vans to rescue them including the DPO. The soldiers were civil I must admit. Begging everyone.

Soldiers assisted to escort all the police out from the station before it was set ablaze by hoodlums. Ikotun roundabout area is also boiling but no one is there to help.

May God punish the idiot who wrote said this.
We all know that people on essential duties are always exempted on curfews of this nature. Just because Governor announced curfew, you took the opportunity to switch off the lights so that your staff will not be in problem. Just listen to ur stupid self

Sanwo-Olu is only a ceremonial governor
he takes orders from Tinubu

while Tinubu in his bid to please his northern Master massacred his people

what a criminal cocaine bastard

he should be banished forever from yoruba land
he should be declared non persona gratis and a nonentity.
such a wicked selfish ugly bastard drug dealing vagabond

Even if Sanwolu takes orders from Tinubu, he should have stood in solidarity with the masses despite causing him his job.

Sanwolu is a bastard and can't be exonerated from this. All politicians inclusive even the pre and post colonial ones. Their selfishness brought us into this.

All hail the Nigerian youths!!!

read very well. They did not order the removal of cameras. They also made it clear they obeyed the curfew order and shut down. U guys should learn how to read and understand
Moreover I dont think the billboard shutdown contributed to anything,

lets try not to involve people who are very much innocent of the crimes committed by the FG

Why do you have cameras if you are only going to shut them down when you are not watching, moreso in a troubled zone?

Will the banks shut down their Network because there's curfew? Will they shut down their perimeter cameras when they close for the day because there's curfew?

This info just convinced me Sanwo is culpable. But you know he's a puppet and you know the puppeteer.
Fulani accused him of been behind the protests, he panicked and to prove them wrong, requested for soldiers, and ordered sanwo to declare a curfew, remove security cameras and security lights on a tolled road, which also was a flashpoint for the protests. All for politics and political correctness.

What has curfew order got to do with shutting a bill board?
During the Corona lockdown, did they off it?

And coincidentally the day They off it is also the day they remove the CCTV cameras and is also the day they caused Genocide.
Bro have conscious, people's sons and daughters died, respect it.

This bastard son of a criminal father is a pathetic lier..
I was in the media business for almost 8yrs...
I supervised alot of billboard all over the country cos the company I worked for has 108 billboard across the country...

So he took 4million loan to erect a billboard worth over 16 million naira isn't it?
Like father like son
You are there fellow colleague!... Am telling you with facts, a slide per month on that loatsad billboard is 23 million naira and they get nothing less than 8-10 different slides monthly... truly it's a juicy business but why lie of starting with 4m to be realizing more than 200 million right from the same year you started.
All I can say is that the company is not to be blamed for anything cos they acted on strict orders and moreover they've been supportive in #sorosoke ads

As I said before the truth will come truth will come out and we will all be here to hear it

we are too quick to judge once we get emotional
we have already assumed its sanwo olu, we have already found Tinubu guilty, and people have gone after their properties.

wat if they tried to avert this, wat if the powers were beyond their control, wat if they had no active role to play in dat

we have already judged them based on "we know them" this is the same thing we accuse SARS of doing profiling criminals without thorough investigation

We are here, we will keep watching, the whole truth will come out.

Soldiers killed people but who ordered it? (Buhari is d commander in chief so he cant be absolved of the offence, but who did he use to carry out dat order?)

Yorubas, they are urging you to destroy Tinubu's properties in Yoruba land, they have not destroyed those of Atiku, Orji Kalu, Peter Obi, Abacha, Ibori, Alamiesigha, Danjuma, Odili, Igbinedion Kwankwaso, Saraki, Audu in their areas.

The earlier the Yorubas know this is an attempt to break and destroy them, the better for them.
Besides, they only started with alleged Tinubu's properties, no they are burning down all revenue yielding assets in Yoruba land and the president is quiet.


My Yoruba folks, time to use your head.
