.Where are the clerics?
Clerics are not supposed to get involved in partisan politics. This is not one ! It is not organised by a politician

When Shite top leader was detained by Federal Government, the regional leaders led the people to a violent protest. When Catholic priest was abducted in benue state, the bishops led the people to a peaceful protest. In these protests, the youth played an active role . Today, the youth are protesting against police brutality, the clergy are not physically active. The youth could interpret this as clergy protest only when one of them is personally hurt. Until SARS brutalised one of them , they will remain silent. The youth should not perceive clergy as selfish preachers who act only when they are hurt. This could mark the begining of lack of trust towards the duo. The revolution now now protest by Sowore received a poor turn out simple because he was a politician and the people do not trust politicians. Religion continues to thrive in the country because of the perceived trust the people have in the Men of God. This trust has been declining gradually in recent times especially since clergy began to mingle in politics . The politicians are currently alledged to be opposing the protest behind while singing their support publicly. They are accused of sponsoring hoodlums to stop the protest. They have been suspected to have a hand in calling threatening protesters to back off. Are the clergy receiving the same threat?


It is in trying moment one knows his true friends.The clerics need to take a stand. Are they in support of the top government officials and politicians whose financial assistance sustain the church ? Would they side with the youth who participate actively in God’s house. In the fight against oppression,the silent one sides with the oppressor .A one hour presence on the street is all the youth need youth people need . The presence of a spiritual leader can help steer the protest toward a more peaceful and Godly manner.

Na from clap dance dey start. No rush, na small small.

Clerics are voluntary public servants and not constitutionally installed like civil servants.

Their pay structure is equally loose and random. They are everyday citizens who have answered the call of God on their lives and it takes acceptance of this fact to voluntarily come under their authority so they don't owe the 'people' solidarity in situations like these.

Freeze was wrong to have started it all and i am surprised some persons are picking up the daddy-freeze idea and running with it.

Just be careful with this seemingly cute idea of overriding the opinions of clerics because people voluntarily come under them.

John the baptist was arrested by Herod for talking against the adulterous act of the king.
There was no protests and even when John sent his disciples to Jesus to know what Jesus is doing regarding his case, Jesus only sent words to John saying "i'm doing exactly what the scriptures says i'll do"
Most people don't know that it's the Pharisees, Saddusees, Scribes and other Jewish Rabbis who often lead protests back then not Christians!
Whatever policy the government set Christians only pray for God's will to be done, they don't get involved in the things of the world! John 17:14-16

. So they cannot volunteerly support the youth in their cause.

can you explain what loose pay structure got to do with supporting the youth in their quest to end police brutality. There are youth whose pay are more loose than the clergy . The youth pastors are youth. Can't they support their colleague.
By they do not owe the people, you mean the clerics can easily mobilize the youth to protest when a clergy is harmed but the youth do not expect similar from clergy because clergy are boss and youth are servants. Servants owe master but master do not owe boss. Shepherd should not lay their lives for sheep but sheep should lay theirs for Shepherd. Is that what Jesus preached?

The can voluntarily support but not the induced kind of show of support people are clamouring for. They are equally private individuals and only faith with submission connects them to people.

I heard a Catholic priest participated in the endsars protest in Calabar .. good

Keep shut...

.
So we want the elderly to protest and we sit at home with girls?
But are we not the one who rain curses on churches everyday for "tithe and offerings"?
So now we want them to rise up and come take the bullets and police tear gas for us again?
By the way, the "Sheeple" Freeze we thought we would see, mba, im no even send shadow
Or is he not a 'cleric'
As long as the cleric are NOT against #EndSARS, they are for us.
