hello sir, so who punishes those that made them go out to protest?
I sense you are among those from 50 above with the ideology of always having to go to America instead of trying to bring America home..
I don't blame you when you were our age 10 naira was worth more than 500naira today so what did you guys care? But see our generation 15000 in january 2020 ain't worth 15000 in October 2020 it's a shame to your grey hairs sir..it's you cowards who spoiled Nigeria..


#NigerDeltaRepublic

It is actually a legitimate question.

Because people want to protest, others should lose their lives? Imagine an accident victim who needs urgent medical attention being blocked and passing on because they cannot get to where they need to be on time.

Do you want their family to mount a protest against the insensitive protesters? Will that be counted as brutality/murder against the protesters?

Nobody is thinking about others lives, well I guess such is our selfish human nature.

What about the cars with sick people going to the hospital, those travelling abroad, and so so many more cares people might have to attend to.

When you block the road, just like SARS, you cause suffering to the masses.


Don't mind them.

In their selfish minds they don't realize they are worse than the police who mount road blocks needlessly, because they aren't authorized to block any roads.

Maybe they want victims of the protests who were blocked to rise up to end them in turn.

then why are they not saying that. Just look the 5 demands they presented to federal government did they mention anything like that?
The same youths will be defending orji uzor kalu, the same youths are defending Atiku, the same youths were defending METU, the same youths were defending DARIYE, the same youths are defending Tinubu etc. How can Nigeria grow when the youth are saying"bring back corruption"
This is a political protest and they will not achieve their aim.
Just check their account, as at yesterday they were having 77 million naira donated by corrupt politicians. Who are they decieving?


if u have the names of the corrupt politians who donated pls kindly post it on twitter etc...... So that we can shout o.......collecting money from any politician is like they speaking from both side of their mouth......


They should not allow any politician to use dem o.....or else nobody will take dem serious......
But with the information available at my disposal they have denied collecting any money from any politicians......lets keep our fingers crossed.....

You are partially correct depending on the length of time.

This is the akin to what labour unions do when they are on strike by picketing the factories, banks etc

Obstructing road ways even for second is illegal. I dont get why you guys just start making up stuff like nobody can fact check you. No it's not akin to picketing. Feel free to cite your source if you have it.

ROAD OBSTRUCTION: Obstructing the highway by abnormal parking or repair of faulty vehicles on the road in the wrong manner. Using objects to block the way. Or stopping in the highway in a manner that affects other drivers.

This is the same thing those demonic SARS did that led to this protest. Why would you threaten to harrass/brutalize someone for having a dissent view. Some of you are only concerned cos you are not on the side of the oppressor and if you have a chance, you will do worse. Think!

The term Civil disobedience as instrument of protest nullifies your regular or basic civil laws. Provided it doesn't involve criminality. It is permissable. As I said before, it depends on length of time.


Your fact checking is stupidity to say the least.

Occupy US Autonomous Zone blocked road for more than two months and it wasn't illegal. They were disbanded because of criminal offences.

Cite where does the law give the length of time liar. Stop telling foolish lies I gave you law in black and white still rambling inane nonsense. Lol blm blocked roads and were arrested immediately because obstructing traffic is illegal mumu.

Btw the chop was illegal from the start. The mayor just decided not to enforce the law until it spiraled out control like the idiot she is. People had to be murdered before dhe came to her senses. Lol the probably the leardership you desire in your commuity right?

Hampton police announced charges Tuesday for a Black Lives Matter 757 leader after protesters marched Friday on Mercury Boulevard and blocked traffic at a major intersection.

Police charged 35-year-old Aubrey “Japharii” Jones, of Newport News, with one count each of obstructing the free passage of others, improper use of a highway by a pedestrian and failing to obey the lawful order of police.

They were all discharged without charge in court.

What Police did is nonsense except the court pronounces judgement.

Arrest is not conviction and it didn't stop the protest.

Lol they weren't convicted mumu? The only place these sort of idiots are not charged are in lawless domains that coddle criminals. Obstructing traffic is a crime mumu there's no debating that fact. You can't cite your time argument because u made it up.

No it's illegal to block the roads. When they caught they should be arrested and charged accordingly. They can practice civil disobedience if they want but there's consequences. They don't own the street so they cant block it.
there is no protest across the earth that wont involve blocking roads or violent in a way, few month ago as civilized as America is the block the major city across America and further burndown several police stations. hongkong protested for a year before the govt listen to them, when you push the masses to the bring of dealt they will fight back and it will be brutal, if almighty American citizen can go ballistic & burnt everywhere down what do you expect naija to do, Nigerians are the most patient people in the world , civilized country cant take shit naija youth are taken.

Ok your point being what they shouldn't be punished for breaking the law. In all those places these people get charged and prosecuted. If it's wrong it's wrong.

It's called civil disobedience... WTF are you driving to? You should park and join the protest... That's what patriots do.

...The protest must be sustained at all cost

#EndSars should switch to #RestructureNigeria

Only then will they listen to us.. only then we can gather more crowd and even earn the backing of the international community.

SARS is just a fraction of our many troubles in Nigeria... You and I know we need more than just #EndSars. Restructuring is the answer and it's only the youth that has the strength and number to make it happen. #RestructureNigeria

Keep shifting the goal post and you will understand that we are not in a state of anarchy where there is no government.
You will soon understand government has it's own right to flush you miscreants out of our roads.

Lol mumu think before asking stupid questions. The fact you're shifting the conversation to development shows you were honesly too stupid to know obstructing traffic is illegal in the USA and Nigeria. The development of each nation is irrelevant because it doesn't negate the fact obstructing traffic is illegal. Instead of calling for law and order you foolishly demand more anarchy like the sentimental clown you are.
