The Hypocrisy Of Sowore's Critics. by mcquin(m): 5:41pm On Dec 08, 2019 |
In 2014, Amaechi threatened to form a parallel government if APC losses out on the elections, he was never arrested; nobody talked about the security implications of his comment. Again, not too long ago, a supposed "Distinguished Senator" went to the hallowed chamber, took out our reverred instrument of sovereignty- the Maze of the National House. That has security implications, throwing questions of how we protect our sovereign institutions, no court action against him; but was instead rewarded. Sometime ago, someone made a statement as to blood and baboons being soaked in blood. Nobody raised issues as to whether that is "hate speech" or heating up the polity. Remember how same person labelled a tribe "5%" and his supporters kept chanting the slogan, not thinking if same is "hate speech." How they turn around to boldly say Sowore's is heating the polity and there are security implications in his call for protest beats me. If that isn't hypocrisy, what is? Remember power is transient. PDP still suffers the consequences of not sanitizing our elections. The "other party" may be a victim of the dangerous precedent it is setting now with regards to abuse of power. Watch I was careful so I'm not held tomorrow for hate-speech. I believe this isn't the kind of Nigeria we always wanted. Presidency, Viber, sonofgod 12 Likes |

what is wrong with Nigeria's system? Or do you want to rebel against the system? Since you cannot beat the system like sowore then join it or accept it. |

oyin44:I'm more concerned with the hypocrisy of those that turn a blind eye to theft rot in their house, but interested in that of another person's. Your team dishes out varieties of hate-speech. You used the instrument of social media to bring down a former regime. You took advantage of protests and even threatened a treasonable act by setting up a parallel government. What moral justification do you have to question a call for protests by whatever name it is given? You wear an anti-corrosion toga but have been asked to investigate a man driving a Bullion van to his house on election eve, and you begin to raise arguments to justify it. Sometimes these guys sound.... Lalaclasticlala, Mynd44 11 Likes 1 Share |

Offcourse they are hypocrites and lovers of lies, I can imagine the rage that would have happened if the evil thing was arrested after his famous dog and baboon threat of 2011 which left many dead. What change has the clown brought? We spend more on subsidy, security is still a mess, corruption thrives like it has being, healthcare, power, education, etc is still in shambles...sai babarians. 12 Likes 1 Share |

The day DSS visits Miyetti Allah is the day I would take APC dumbos serious. Miyetti Allah has taken responsibility for so many killings and bloodshed yet they have never been questioned by DSS, they are now called a socio cultural organization and have been rewarded with a multi billion naira initiative. I don't know who has bewitched my people! Yorubas fighting for ruga, fighting for the oppression of her people, fighting to have the army check ID cards, fighting for social media regulations. It has to be witchcraft. 12 Likes 1 Share |

One part that annoys me is when I hear the supporters of this government say, "GEJ did the same thing, GEJ used DSS too," and you begin to wonder what the CHANGE mantra they used in deceiving many in 2015 was about. For heaven's sake of you were not prepared to do things differently, why ask us to change government. And in any case, this government has done far worse that Jonathan did. See me now being too afraid to mention names in this regime, when in Jonathan's regime, many freely called him names, insulted him and his wife. If Jonathan did nothing, atleast he allowed the freedom of speech and information, a basic right we are lacking these days. 4 Likes |

fykes:I beg to disagree. A gentleman once said, "my political ambition is not worth the blood of anyone," and he stayed true to it. He had all the aces, could remove Jega, then INEC chairman; but chose not to heat up the polity. Today even those in opposition won't raise a brow if Jonathan is crowned father of modern democracy. The day you lose a loved one to politics in the name of it being war, then you'd understand that politics is primarily public service. I pray the good Lord helps disabuse the mind of Nigerians of this thuggish approach to life. |
