Kyase:

Are you protesting SARS or Fulani herdsmen.
Which is worse?

Have you seen pictures of the slaughter before?

Who gave Fulanis the guts to rise?

Who voted that person into power?

What did you do when they rigged election?

SARS have been oppressing youths long ago, why did you chose to act now and ignore for so long?

Is it because celebrities cajoled you to?

What do you think celebrities will do if a bloody revolution breaks out?

Do you think they will stay here with you?

Bro before you push for something make sure you understand and prepare for the results so you are not overwhelmed.


These ones the youths are doing, protesting, blocking road, camping and eating chicken is just you guys enjoying yourself as always. Selfish desires and interest...


You have no idea what you are chasing after and how heated up it can get

I appreciate what the youths did. Tho they may have come off as ungrateful because of the way they told him to leave but he should know the repercussions of him being there.
All this politicians are just looking for ways to gain favor with the youths so that they can be voted for during the next election.
We don't want that.
He can protest from twitter but wanting to turn the live protest into a political campaign or whatever is a no-no.

Your Sowore has demonstrated to be unstable Man, with poor judgment.

When he championed "We will vote Buhari even if he has NEPA Bill Certificate".

I knew he is an Unstable man, with poor judgment for undermining education.

Karma is Real.

Let Sowore face his Karma.

How is it confusing?

Jonathan ran the most corrupt government at that time. They had one of the best windfall when it comes to crude sales but instead prepared the country for hardship.

How do you expect Sowore to stand and watch. He fought GEJ's corruption and when he noticed Buhari was not better, he fought even more. Through the polls and through protest.

What else would a human being do?

Sowore deserves better.
Gej was too soft to be a leader but I am sure you know buhari was no better before you guys voted him in.

You know what he did to us in the 70s

After all said and done we ended up entering into deep trouble while looking for a solution

tell yourself the truth Nigeria have never seen dis kind of upgraded hardship

Jonathan was a give and take situation but

Buhari is a take take and take phenomenal is like d man has sworn to make life very difficult for the common man

God help Us dat we d youth are beginning to see more clearly We need to start sending a strong message to dis Old niggas dat Come 2023 we will not have them at d helm of affairs

but sowore is a no no anytime anyday twice on a Tuesday

Nigeria is in a difficult situation. The people who can bring redemption are few and not outspoken. They are intelligent people engaging in their professions , trade and commerce.

I hope this momentum stays till 2023 . Do you have anyone in mind?

U dont have to let sentiments becloud ur reasoning.

Sowore is one of the major reason Nigeria is where he is today because of his hatred for Jonathan.

What so ever he is doing now to redeem his image is nothing compare to the damage done through his support for the fulani herdsman in aso rock.

All of his ilks should be treated the same to avoid further evil from fostering in the land.

We entered Big trouble when GEJ wasted the biggest windfall of Crude Sales in the history of the country and got us bankrupt.

GEJ is part of the reason we are suffering today.

The excess flow of dollars hid his excessive incompetence.

He was sinking the country too and Sowore was right to fight him for his wastage.

playing blame games is a very cheap play from dis Govt Jonathan did dis Jonathan did dat

truth still remains dat Nigeria was far better in his tenure

I never liked or supported him but I kept telling people dat Buhari is not an option

doesn't it shame you to know dat Buhari is your president in dis modern era?

the protest is apolitical...sowore ulterior motive was to become the front runner so he could use the protest for his presidential ambition

What was his ulterior motive when he was protesting for Babangida to give Abiola his mandate. What about Fighting Abacha. Was there an ulterior motive?

Sowore has done this for too long for your cheap blackmail.

In as much as we believe GEJ is better than Buhari, his government was flawed and corruption thrived so he believed Buhari who had somewhat of a record for no tolerance would be better but he was wrong and soon realized it like many others. He has since tried to right the wrong and believed the only person he could support was himself since he knows himself better than anyone else and he is confident he has what it takes to tackle the political elites in Nigeria. That is why he went into politics.

Many others have lost, with the way Nigeria was set up, there was absolutely no way he was going to win the last election. He didn't give up. How is he confused?


God bless you. I wonder why people continue to blame him. Even after all he's been through which shows he has nothing to do with the present regime. We all thought Buhari is our massiah and as soon as he realised he Buhari had no good plans for us he kicked against him immediately.

This thing is not going to work I've already seen it, so we should have supported Jonathan ehn, Jonathan fcked up and buhari looked promising to a lot of people that is why he was voted in, those who we should blame are those who supported him in 2019. This thing has turned political as usual.

There is nothing dishonourable about calling out and protesting against bad leadership. This same Sowore criticised IBB, Abacha, OBJ, Yaradua, Yaradua cabal, GEJ and didnt relent for a day to criticise PMB. But somehow, a lot of folks including yourself think he did wrong by criticising GEJ because that eventually led to PMB's emergence? Sorry, you cant fault the man's consistency.

If for instance PMB leaves power today and a worse candidate takes over, does that mean that those criticising PMB today are wrong for doing so? We have to be careful not to make this #EndSARS protest something about pro-GEJ or anti-PMB.

Regarding Aisha, I dont understand you, do you have a problem with her chosen religion or with her hijab? And what has her religion or hijab got to do with her stand?

You are right


About her religion, I have no problem with anyone's religion but the rest of Nigeria wouldn't see it so especially in a country like Nigeria.

For wisdom sake, she should put her religious representation aside and stand solely as a Nigerian.


I still don't trust her yet, let's see where this is all going

F. this government. They are useless for all I care. However, their incompetence does not absolve GEJ for his gross wastage of our resources with little or nothing to show.

This is not about blame games but fact. GEJ was a disaster and had to go. Sowore was right fighting his corrupt regime. Sowore did not waste time to start a war against Buhari when he saw the gross mismanagement of the country.

Things looked better under GEJ because of the windfall of Crude oil funds.

Sowore deserves better because he put his life on the line to give us a better country.

It's really disappointing to see how the protesters in Abuja treated Sowore. This guy has literally been fighting the government of Nigeria and has tried his best to stir the people to take matters into their hands and protest. He was even locked up for the cause.

He joined politics to try to fight them but yet some Nigerians are against him. They tagged him "just like every other politician". He's not like others. He went in there to fight them. Let's not lose sight of that. He might have made some errors just like everyone of us. But time and time again, he always stood by the people. He never turned on the people but now that he and several others have succeeded in waking the sleeping giant, the people are trying to turn against him.

In as much as you might have something against him, at least, show the man some respect. He has done enough to warrant it and he shouldn't be treated like that.

Sowore, "forgive them for they know not what they do," and don't loose faith in the people. We need you in this fight wether we like it or not. Keep up the good work and don't let this little hiccup deter you. There are a lot more people that support you and will continue to support you. Your service is appreciated.

. Sowore should not be included in any form. If he is involved it may be another way to proclaim his revolution. Protesters are not calling for revolution but protesting against SARS and SWOT.It is their constitutional right to do do.

You are not wrong. Democracy in Nigeria is growing. At this point Nigeria is the most democratic country in Africa.

The youth have reaffirmed that they are the strongest force to reckon with . To change the status quo our voices must not only be heard criticizing the state of things, our solutions must also do the change.

The protest has no direction because it lacks a leader. The fact is that those who started it did not listen to the voice of reason when we told them to come with a bigger and all encompassing title. They were only interested in fighting what looked like the nearest problem , which is myopic, but when they government granted their wish ,they then discovered that it was not their real problem and if they leave without getting their real problem solved, they wouldn't get another opportunity in years. That's why this protest goes on without a direction.

No one has the boldness to make the real demand the youths want. We have people beating around the bush and seeking validation.

Sowore did not hate Jonathan but hated his mismanagement of the Nation's resources. The waste was madness.

So kicking against him was the right call. GEJ was a terrible leader. Close to madness.

I love Sowore. He didn't deserve that. The guy was grounded because he asked for revolution. Whether we like it or not, he played some role waking up our youths. This act is also a good sign that this is beyond Sowore. It's good for him. If some youths decide to start blowing Govt buildings, nobody can pinpoint it Sowore. So, it's good that the movement is leaderless for now.

Jonathan was no better. Things were getting pretty bad later during his tenure. The dollar exchange rate increased from N150 to N170 then to N201/$1. Corruption was the order of the day under him. He was able to mask it all because of the crude oil price at that time. Don't be fooled. This would have happened eventually. Buhari is just as incompetent as GEJ, even more so.
And for those saying Sowore is a politician, so therefore, it's a negative thing, you're all misguided. In order to hold any position of authority/government, one must be a politician. We can't sit back and leave politics. We need to infiltrate the parties or better still create a new one like what Sowore did. He didn't join APC or PDP. He went ahead and created a party. If we don't infiltrate, we'll still be left with the same old people. That's why Sowore joined politics in order to fight them since that'll be the most effective way to do so. But you all are against him for being against an incompetent tenure like every other tenure. He has good intentions and revolution now is for our own good.

If he was accepted to the rally, the focus would change and govt may use force which might lead to extra judicial killing and clamping down on posters with DSS or Army.

It was done to avoid any political undertone. He would use the platform to push for revolution which would actually come as the protest persist. You can see the government is finding it hard to pitch the protest to anyone. NO LEADER protest. That's the consensus and awesome strategy.

If Sowore is disgruntled, he should understand what the protest is all about and respect the views of the youth. No


You have said it all. He has tried his best to wake us up, now we are awake. Let him use all his platforms to support the movement, but physically being at the fore front of the protest would allow the government tag it to sowore and his agenda.
I believe he should understand this better and help avoid loosing focus right now from the objective at hand.
