Soyinka looks very fresh.

na Naija im dey?

hope this will yield fruits. it is high time Nigerians stand up and reclaim this country for good!

The annoying thing is that while this protest was going on, I just heard on AIT News that another group simultaneously had another rally at Eagles Square, Abuja, DECLARING THEIR SUPPORT FOR YARADUA! And guess what?

most of them were youths, people of our own generation!

Repect to pastor Tunde Bakare. Where are the other so called men of God?

What about the internet revolutionists in the Diaspora ? When did they say theirs is coming ? Or Nigerian police operate outside out shores too making it as dangerous to protest outside ?

Don't worry yourself about those rented 'areaboys'. I saw them on AIT and it is obvious they are a bunch of hungry layabout paid by Aondoakka and led by a few sycophants of the discredited and dying Yar Adua government.

It wouldn't be hard to imagine that these crooks in government may have paid some people to try to protest for the government and some took the deal. But you know what, forget about them, they are silly and probably have no brain to be supporting these cabals. Or they could be youth who are really poor and needed the money so they took the deal.   The anti-government rally was much larger I assume.


I hope that this rally really means the start of something special. I would not like it if everything just died down. If these cabals don't meet all our demands, we should just throw out this government and start everything all over.

Kudos to all that attended protest.

maybe cnn international was there and have footage of protest. I'm sure they must have gotten some information about it.

guy take am easy. We all have the same goals i.e. to move Naija forward. If we start fighting ourselves over little issues, how we wan take achieve our goal?

As far as I know, the UK protest is on Friday. Wait till then.

I love this, this shows that Nigeria will be better soon

nice one guyz keep it up

I love the Placard :_------>>>WHY IS JAMES IBORI A FREE MAN

If these caliber of guys can march for a better Nigeria, they have done well

fhemmy


Honestly they have, now we need more action to follow honestly

Edoyad,

We march in the UK on Friday, dont worry yourselves with the dead-enders marching in support of a dying government. All hands to the pump, Nigeria must free of this prolonged evil.

God Bless Nigeria

and even more

when is the one in Port Harcourt holding?

Abi O my brother. This , from Tpia, is also out of order:

them wan destabilize the country like what's currently going on in Iran.

All these foreign based internet "warriors"

i tire for Nigerians, for real.

What we all want to happen is happening yet some folks are not happy. I really struggle to understand Nigerians !!! Even assuming , for the sake of arguement, that folks are "internet warriors" would it not be better to encourage them to do more rather than taunt them ? I have been to a few pro-Naija rallies in the UK and when you see the 'virgins' you tend to know them . An encouraging smile and a kind word soon helps them to feel at ease in confimation that they have made the right choice. In my experience , most pro-Naija activist are internet warriors" making the switch to real activism. Those who genuinely want Nigeria to improve will realise that all effort is welcomed . Wether you be internet Rambo or you dey throw egg for OBJ face , its all good  

This is the best thing out of Nigeria in a long time.
I so much wish i was there to see this live.

@Revolution,


Thanks keep it up
