Soldiers calm the air as ENDSARS protesters defy govt curfew in Osun Despite the directive of the Osun state government imposing a 24-hour curfew, the ENDSARS protesters in Osogbo have defied the order as they storm the state capital to demand an end to police brutality. The Osun state government had on Tuesday imposed 24 hours’ curfew in the state to curb the escalation of violence in the state. However, the protestants in defiance of the order besieged and mounted barricades at Olaiya junction, Osogbo. In response to the defied curfew, scores of soldiers stormed the convergence spot of the EndSARS protesters. Our correspondent who was present at the scene reports that the military troop arrived the EndSARS protest Ground in numbers in about seven military vans around 11:10 am on Wednesday. The soldiers displayed a high level of civility and professionalism while addressing the protestants. The soldiers who were fully armed reacted to the agitations and complaints lodged by protesting youths against alleged brutality, extortion and extra-judicial killings by operatives of Special Anti-Robbery Response Squad (SARS) peacefully. The youths due to the calmness of the troops also conducted themselves properly as they displayed the ethos of Omoluabi, though, they only chanted solidarity songs, they reiterated the need for SARS to be scrapped. Addressing the protesting youths, one of the soldiers who had earlier joined the protesters with the Nigerian flag in his hand assured the protestants that they are not at the scene to launch any form of attack on the protesters. The soldier added that they are with the protesters and would ensure they are safe in the course of their peaceful protest. He said there was the need for the protesters to obey the executive order of the state governor, Mr Gboyega Oyetola emphasizing that they will not attack the protesters. It was learnt that the hoodlums would have wreaked havoc on Osun State Broadcasting Company (OSBC) and some other Government-owned parastatals if not for the quick intervention of the soldiers who later restored peace in the areas. Like I said earlier. Soldiers work on instructions. These are the soldiers deployed to Osun State. See how reasonable this young man is? https://twitter.com/iamMacAfeez/status/1318868790373978113?s=19 Watch the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sCHwLKyaAN0 36 Likes 7 Shares

Since I left secondary school being a boarding school, I a have never had a siesta till day and for the first time since then, I had a siesta today. It shows that what is happening in Nigeria right now weakened me to the bones... Worse still is we youth and citizens are helpless in the face of oppression.. We just keep agitating, we can't do real shit about happenings in Nigeria 6 Likes |

first of all they are human before they became sldier They were once a civilian before becoming soldier with this i believe they should be reasonable in any task given to them but since they did not have brain to end navigate how to defeat boko haram i dont expect them to have the brain to think right when given stupid order They were ordered to defeat boko haram since all this years but they still cant defeat them but they were ordered to kill innocent civillians and it was executed within hours of receiving order kudos to this soldiers who acted the right way may God bless ur families and ur household in multiple fold 3 Likes |
