That's the most gruesome killing I have seen In recent times. Thank God for camera. They would have lied they did it self defense.

When will the killer cop be taken to court?


Most gruesome killing you've seen in recent times? Are you in Nigeria at all?

When will you talk about Leah Sharibu and the Edo girl that was raped to death recently?

So how does it relate to police brutality?

I agree. When some believe that they are better than other tribes...

Nice one... But can you tell me exactly how a Nigerian can express his or herself.. peaceful protest definitely doesn’t work here social media doesn’t work so what can Nigerians Do.. I guess we don’t have to blame our brothers we should prefer solutions that can work here
Jakemedg:
The way Nigerians took it as if cases much worse than this doesn't occur here baffles me 。
If only Nigerians can channel half or little of the energy we channel towards this case to the frequent massacre of innocent people in our communities Nigeria would have been better

The Timothy MC veigh treatment - death by electrocution in an electric chair - should be dished out to the killer cop, Derek Chauvin.

If George Floyd was white and the cop who killed him was black, I wonder the kind of reaction this would've been generating. Just me and my thoughts.

For those quoting me with bile and vile, I would urge you to calm down and revisit your quotes. My comment has nothing to do with maltreatment of blacks or not. My comment is simply flipping a narrative to see a possible outcome in such eventuality. It has nothing to do with blacks vs whites.

black men kill each others more than any other crimes in the US.


few months ago a black guy and his BLACK girlfriend blew the brains of a hard working elderly BLACK taxi driver out just to steal his hard earned Meagre $300..


Why did no black person protest?

take no notice of people's insults, those are ignoramuses who never thinks rationally, as you have noticed none of them has anything reasonable to atleast counter your comments with, the only thing they are very good at are insults and making derogatory remarks.


A white police man kills a black man, and i must call every white police or person racist.

I have 3 mixed raced children that is like calling their amazing mums racist.

While I understand the sensitivity of the topic and the kind of heated passion it's bound to generate, I also think that venting that passion on an all black forum is hypocrisy and counter productive. @Donald Trump's or @Minnesota police Twitter handles would be a more suitable place to start with venting your anger. Have a productive day

Bro, please don't even go there. It has been happening to blacks for so long, and nothing is been done.

The police respect you as a white more than a black.


I hate to tell you this but in 2019 US police killed more whites than blacks

The Protest should be about the Unnecessary Killings going on from Continent to Continent!

[s][/s]Lives in Nigeria are slaughtered like chicken because of their Faith...[s][/s]

Until Humanity return to GOD in Humility and We Completely Surrender to HIM we will keep seeing this Evils..

Human life has Suddenly become Valueless..

We need Conscious Action not Just talk.

The World needs to Return to GOD and do away with Abominations and Wickedness

What will you gain from fanning flames of hatred and religious fanatism?

How about those who were killed by bandits in katsina, sokoto and zamfara? Hell no! You choose to turn a blind eye and only focus on southern Kaduna.

Damnit!

Exactly! Because the same way George was killed is the same way the poor are been treated in Nigeria!!!

Pls Nigerians focus on ur own problem. Our people are getting killed everyday. Don't be hypocrites. Most of u didn't even know who this guy was, u guys follow everything u see social media like sheeps. Fight for ur country instead, there is a lot about to happen in Nigeria, open ur eyes ooooooo.

Fact: did u know its mainly blacks that were affected by this so called riot? Those business that are burned down and looted hire black people or are owned by mainly black people. Stop listening to twitter and CNN and use ur brain.
