A JEGA Must Go Protest Currently On Along Ikorodu Road Lagos by dhardline(op): 12:12pm On Mar 16, 2015
The Oodua Peoples Congress and the Goodluck Jonathan Campaign Organisation in Lagos on Monday morning led other protesters to storm the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, demanding the sacking of the Chairman, Independent National Electoral Commission, Prof. Attahiru Jega, before the March 28 elections.

The bus of the campaign group and the members of the OPC, who massed at the 7UP/Toll Gate end of the expressway, led the protesters, who were chanting anti-Jega songs, giving reasons why Jega should be sacked.

The OPC members carried guns, cutlasses, pocket knifes among other weapons, occupying one end of the busy highway while some members of the groups harassed some motorists and passers-by plying the road.

Some people, who were clad in black vest, said to be beneficiaries of the SURE-P, also constituted a sizable portion of the protesters.

Heavy traffic built up along the highway as the protesters, who were well protected by heavy police presence, took over one partof the road, grounding movement of other road users.

The protesters took time to distribute leaflets containing seven reasons why the INEC boss should be sacked.

The leaflet also contained what the OPC described as the achievements of President Goodluck Jonathan and why the President should be re-elected.

The protesters are said to beon their way to the National Stadium, Surulere, through the Ikorodu Road, where they will hold a rally.

The Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra on Friday protested in Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu, among other locations in theSouth-East, calling for the immediate removal of Jega.

On Sunday, the All Progressives Congress alleged that it had uncovered a plot by its Peoples Democratic Party counterpart to fund ethnic militias to protest and demand Jega’s sacking.

It added that such ethnic militias included the OPC.

Re: A JEGA Must Go Protest Currently On Along Ikorodu Road Lagos by Tolexander:
they had better divert their protest to something that will profit the nation instead of their pocket.

when the same Jega was conducting the election in 2011, GEJ against GMB, where were they to protest?

They are OPC guys led by Gani Adams.



You keep asking the question about the reason why GEJ love courting people with questionable character and criminal tendency. From Tompolo, Asari Dokubo, Almustapha, Massob and other criminal and outlawed groups.

AS innnnnn. . just wait, before the day ends, some TANdroid robots will say it is APC that sponsored the protests to discredit their god (GEJ)

Am loving this. GEJ is showing to the entire WORLD how desperate he has become to hang to power by all means. It will only make his imminent defeat sweeter. cheesy

It's becoming clearer that there may be no elections if these latest antics are a pointer. PDP is terrified of meeting APC/Buhari at the polls. Jonathan why? ?
Re: A JEGA Must Go Protest Currently On Along Ikorodu Road Lagos by wildchild1: 3:33pm On Mar 16, 2015

And i am sure there will be casualties.

Still, majority of the protesters are just working for their next meal.

Re: A JEGA Must Go Protest Currently On Along Ikorodu Road Lagos by Hemanwel(m):
Who said APC would win the coming Presidential elections when we have 21 PDP-controlled states as against 14 for APC??The remaining state,Anambra (APGA-controlled state),is surely going to GEJ.
PDP is never against the card reader cos they will surely win - though margin may be trimmed - but why should Jega who's heading an Independent body like INEC be aligning with the opposition all cos it has a candidate who's a northernerhuhThat's the essence of the protest.
JEGA MUST SURELY GO!!!

why can't you just give a peaceful protest and leave?

why do you have to harass and abuse innocent civilians just to display your aggresion towards someone who was not physically avialable at the scene.

When will some pple have sense?

The only people i pity in this whole scenario are the igbos beating their empty chest in support of GEJ and Jimi Agbaje. They have been cornered and rendered useless in the Nigerian polity so they are doing all they can to remain relevant. GEJ is an Ijaw man while Agbaje is Yoruba and it's obvious they don't give a damn about the igbo tribe who keep ranting in support of them. The Yeebos have finally turned to an Ijaw/Yoruba slave something they frequently accuse the Yoruba's of doing for the northerners grin

Whether agbaje or Ambode wins, Lagos remains in the hands of the Yoruba but under a different party. An igbo man will never rule Lagos or Aso rock.

What did the igbos benefit from GEJ's rulehuh The promise of second niger brigde is still on paper, Many failed projects in their erosion ravaged region and so on but these people chose to remain suffering.

The igbos are just trying to flex their political muscle but we all know that they will forever remain behind the yoruba and the north in Nigerian politics.


Instead of working hard to regain their political relevance, they are busy supporting those who don't care about their existence. When the reality of the economy hits them hard, they turn to drug trafficking and kidnapping for survival.

What a group of wasted sperms undecided
