The Congress for Progressive Change, CPC, spokesperson, Rotimi Fasakin, has said that some of the people who died in the 2011 post election violence were not university graduates participating in the mandatory National Youth Service Corps.

In 2011, immediately after the presidential election, some electorates, mostly CPC supporters took to violence to express their dissatisfaction with the election result. In the process, at least 50 people including nine serving corps. members in the state were killed,

The nine corps members were Adewumi Seun (Ekiti), Teidi Tosin (Kogi), Adowei Elliot (Bayelsa), Okpokiri Obinna (Abia), Gbenjo Ayotunde (Osun), Ukeoma Chibuzor (Imo), Nwazema Chukwuonyerem (Imo), Adeniji Jehleel (Osun) and Akonyi Sule (Kogi).

In continuation of PREMIUM TIMES interview series, Mr. Fasakin, speaking as regards the violence that erupted, said “some so called (NYSC) members were murdered, but in actual fact some of these people are IT consultants”.

What rubbish is this one saying sec? So because they're supposedly IT consultants they deserved to die? Nonsense party.

Aah!! this is just so depressing.We're talkig about youths who's lives were cut at their prime....The succor this man could give is to affiliate the barbarism to a political party.

Hmm this site is full of sad new but am out till 2012

...Loading wait a minute!

Now one can conclude that CPC is Boko Haram. Ediooooooottttt!!!

He is not justifying this in my own opinion. What happened was very bad but that doesn't mean record should not be put straight.

And what is the significance of this statement?

Even politicizing death again? Na wa o

wot an Animal! CPC=Boko haram. Arrest this bastard now! he knows wot happend to the corpers!

Dis mr fasakin shld b referd to as mr fasafool..even if those boys were pdp IT consultants,did they deserve to die in cold blood?..dis guy shld b jailed 4 such uncensord statements..foolish man

This CPC NA Bleep up party.is this how they want to castigate Pdp and turn the masses against them.they must be learners i mean real learners

So buhari supporters killed PDP "IT consultants"

fool so they shoull die cos day ar IT student nonsense

Does it make any difference?

killing is killing, and saying they were PDP IT Consultants shouldn't justify why they were killed....


Rotimi should be more worried that he shares a country with killers that roam freely without persecution.


Another stupid man, acting as a spokesman for a major party in Nigeria. PDP looters, CPC blood suckers, not much of a choice for Nigerians.

And this is opposition party??

So as they are PDP's they deserv to die..hmm! Buhari nd killinqs sef

There is politics everywhere. Death of d masses politics, plain crash politics, car crash politics, church politics, CAC politics, mosques politics, nff politics, N.A politics.
Only God can give us PERFECT POLITICS.

Dis man na big mumu oooo. He jst open dat gutter wey dey near him nose cum dey troway nonsense. Na wa oo

Hmmmm, CPC supporters killing 9 corpers. How many dem go kill if Buhari lose again come 2015?

It was rightly said..Nigeria will turn somalia should cpc take over the reins of government.Violence is all they preach in dat God damn party.bunch of fools!

WTF!

Why are Nigerians ​ so ​ slow in deciphering simple statements??.

Did Mr fashakin in any part of the interview state that any person irrespective of tribe, religion, or occupation deserve to die in the 2011 post election violence.

In an interview you happen to be thrown a question and in your response you clarify some mistaken details in that question, does that mean you should be chastised??.

Some posters here really lack simple reasoning that is expected of a complete human being.

No wonder Nasir El-rufai tags most youths in this country as "intellectually Lazy".

executinal: And this is opposition party??

Yes now. And they want to take over in 2015. GEJ should go and rejoice.

Nine (9) young souls lost and all this scumbag could come up with is this thrash.
What if they were IT consultants?
What if they were election riggers?
What if they were thugs?
Does that mean they deserve to die?

Well this is an eye opener for those fronting Buhari and making a case for him on nairaland.

Noise Maker :
Hmm this site is full of sad new but am out till 2012

I have said it severally that CPC can never be an alternative to PDP. Give them power, I swear, CPC will be worst than PDP. I even pitty some southerners who parade themselves as CPC members.

I guess you didn't see that part where he referred to the dead corpers (may their soul R.I.P) as PDP's IT consultants.

You people cut them down at their prime, now you still don't want them to rest in peace.

E no go better for una oooo

Sick country..when did the average nigerian's heart become so cold blooded? Death moves them not these days! *spits*

Is it necessary to talk? If you don't have something logical except this political jargons, it would have been better to keep your stupidity. RIP to the dead. I did my service year in Bauchi though many years back, after the incident I kept imagining, that could have been me.
