Osibanjo cannot be the right presidential candidate in 2023... The fact that he couldn't stop this shows that he would be another puppet in the hands of the fulani oligarchy just like Jonathan if he becomes president

Was Osinbajo convinced that worse than this shall not happen in Nigeria in future?

With all due respect sir, shut D Fck up! It's not enough to be dishing out promises on social media without marching them with actions.

I know deep down, you hate your boss actions or inactions as the case may be but it's unfortunate you are afraid to speak up.

If your boss has refused to resign, why dont you resign and put the devil to shame.

Well, Mr Osinbade, Nigerians have been through trying times since 2015. Stop pretending.

You rubbished yourself being gutless to resign from Buhari evil govt. You have become Mourner-General over the corpses of your people.

You stretch your legs over the corpses of your people to walk into office daily.

As a Christian & pastor, you sold your soul very cheaply to the devil because of privilege, money and power.

Mr man, worse is to come. And do not be sure that you or your family will be spared when it all explodes. Don't be too sure.

You will be forever tied to the worst govt in Nigerian history.

Tueh!

One million Naira per month? shocked shocked

Which job does a senator do that's better than a school principal, a magistrate, a lecturer or a midwife's work? Sleeping in the chamber? shocked shocked shocked shocked

How can the legislature/NASS have more budget than health & education combined? Please remind me of any non-Banana Republic where such happens?

A country struggling to pay workers 30,000 Naira monthly cannot honestly pay politicians more than 10 times (300k) including allowances. It doesn't happen anywhere else. A president earning over 600k or a governor on over 500k has no conscience. Join private sector if money is your motivation.

sad Bad or failed leadership from the wicked Buhari regime caused all these problems. Even during the time of Abacha, even when MKO was killed, even when Simbiat was assassinated, even when Funsho Williams was murdered in Dolphin Ikoyi, and all the other major political crisis in Lagos history, it never ever degenerated to this point, degenerated too badly that Oba of Lagos palace was desecrated by angry youths....none of these unfortunate things has ever happened before in the entire history of Lagos State. Lagos State has never ever witness civil unrest and anarchy on a large scale to this extent of public destructions before. What triggered it? They sent soldiers to shoot and kill umarmed peaceful protesters at Lekki phase 1 toll gate.

There was so much tension in the country already, mass poverty coupled with many anti-people government policies that have driven up prices of commodities and costs of living, so much Government insensitivity. People are yet to recover from COVID economic recession, you start slamming Nigerians with one tax after another, one tariff after another, fuel price up, VAT up, NEPA up, dollar up, one crazy tax after another, one crazy bill after another. The masses are already frustrated and the frustration was already at boiling point. Yet Buhari regime doesn't care, he is not bothered. Nigerians can go to hell, that's not his business.

Ok, no problem, the people still managed to continue their lives, but it got to a point they said enough is enough for police brutality, torture, maiming and extrajudicial killings. It was not exaggeration. It was reality. There were countless cases of extreme human rights violations and murders, without justice being served on the police killers and offenders. This was the main cause of the protests at the initial stages, protesters were loud, they were angry but they were civil, they were orderly and they were unarmed. It was peaceful. Protesting peacefully was their aim to voice out their displeasure and anger to government, to press for critical changes in the system, to ask for justice for the murdered and oppressed.

Buhari said he acknowledged the civic rights of the protesters to protest peacefully. Very very good. So what happened, where did the commotion come from? The peaceful protesters suddenly were getting attacked and killed by thugs and criminals, obviously hired by government to intimidate the protesters to stop protesting. Very very STUPID move. You have a spontaneous protests, across the country, with no clear leadership, that should tell you the equation is very volatile, any wrong move and things could descend into widespread anarchy and chaos.

Still despite the provocations, the peaceful protesters continue protesting peacefully until the shadow attacks from hired criminals became unbearable and they started to defend themselves. Anarchy loading, but at this stage it has not gone totally out of control yet. The government still had the opportunity to calm things down. But NO, Buhari regime had to escalate the tensions, had to spoil everything. How? Armed soldiers went to shoot unarmed peaceful protesters at Lekki yesterday night and that was when everything scattered. Why would they shoot to kill unarmed peaceful protesters that the president himself said had the rights to protest peacefully? If it was completely necessary for them to disperse the crowd, why didn't they use tear gas? Why didn't they use tasers? Why didn't they use water cannons or use batons or even pepper spray to disperse the crowd? There were so many options they had to resolve that situation without murder, without killings BUT they chose to KILL. Why? These youths are citizens for God's sake. Some of them even voted for this same Buhari to get power. Some of them even protested peacefully for Buhari's sake during GEJ govt, and yet this is how Buhari regime pays them back, with live bullets fired at them? No, it is totally wrong, condemnable, unacceptable and unjustifiable.

None of the chaos we are witnessing today across the country will have happened if the government had been more sincere and sensitive. I mean for God's sake even during military era, as brutal as they were, it never got to this point, they still had some limits they won't cross.

This is the reason why I blame Buhari regime for this, if they had shown sense, maturity and sensitivity, the whole crisis of the peaceful protests could have been managed well and turned around in their favor. For example, if I were the President and this protests crisis broke out and the youths made their demands for change, very reasonable demands. I will have addressed them, given them assurances, beyond words, I will have taken some quick actions to show my sincerity and solidarity to their cause. I will not only have ordered the IGP to disband the police units accused of gross human rights abuses and violations, I would have asked that the officers already proven to be offenders face orderly trial immediately, while further investigation continues for other offenders. If the protesters still insisted on continuing their peaceful protests, I will have allowed them to continue.

Then when the protesters claim and provide proof that they are being attacked by criminals as they are peacefully protesting, I would have deployed riot squad and other security teams to the protesting zones and areas to provide security for the peaceful protesters. All these actions will make them see and know that truly the govt is on their side and is sincere about making change, about addressing their concerns, that the govt is sensitive to their cries.

By the time they protest peacefully and roam about for maybe 2 or 3 weeks or even 1 month, their anger would be lesser and they will become more predisposed to come to the dialogue table with govt and discuss a holistic way forward together and brainstorm about the ideas that will work to make society a safer place for the youths and citizens. During those weeks they are allowed to peacefully protest with security protecting them and guaranteeing their safety, the worst that could happen is the inconveniences of traffic blockage, or obstruction by the large number of protesters on the road and streets. Alternative temporary detours can be used, and they can still appeal to them during their march to give way whenever traffic stands still. It is better people suffer traffic and hold up for peace to reign than for society to descend into mass anarchy, chaos and killings. People already experience heavy traffic from time to time, it is not a strange phenomena in our society. How many times have they shutdown major highways and roads for months in Lagos, as unbearable as the traffic was, sometimes hours and hours in heavy traffic, people still managed and all was well eventually.

That's how the situation would have been well managed, no bloodshed, no torture, no murders. At the end of the day, I will have succeeded in winning over the protesters and youths and they will respect and believe in their govt more. Problem solved!

But NO, NO, NO, they just had to choose the way of brutality and killing. It is either this Buhari regime is just too DAFT or they enjoy killing citizens.
Why not use teargas or water to disperse the crowd instead they choose to shot at us while the light was down. I wonder where we got it wrong in terms of leadership in this country

OPERATION DEFEND ODUDUWA!
Fellow brothers and sisters of Oduduwa nation, our land has been under attack for few days now by our enemies and unfriendly friends under the disguise of EndSars protests. No where is this more obvious than in some parts of Lagos State where several federal, state and private establishments have been destroyed by hired thugs. This evil act is been applauded by some evil people who are yet to do same in their regions except setting ablaze few police stations owned by the federal government.
This is obviously a calculated attempt to destroy major infrastructures in Oduduwa land and to divide our ranks using party politics or religion. When all is said and done, it is our people that will suffer unemployment and more hardship if we condone this evil act. I support a peaceful protest but what we have now is a calculated effort to destroy our land and properties. Is Lagos the seat of power in Nigeria? Is the Federal police headquarters located in Lagos? Why deploy arm solders to Lagos to attack harmless protesters while soldiers were not deployed to Edo State where a Federal Prison was broken and almost 2000 prisoners set free?
I do not support corruption in any form it may appear but we all know there are corrupt politicians across this nation.
Why are the others shielding their own politicians while we destroy ours? Do we know the identity of the hoodlums who destroyed the three banks, Lagos TV station, Nigerian Port Authority and other infrastructures in Lagos?
This is not the time to fold our harms and watch while our enemies plan against us and destroy Oduduwa land. You are first a Yoruba son and daughter before you embraced either Islam or Christianity. Becoming a PDP or APC member is a choice you made and that choice can change any time but none of us choose to be born a Yoruba person.
This is an appeal to all Yoruba traditional leaders, leaders of thought, religious leaders, Academicians, Political leaders, Afenifere, Iba Gani Adams, OPC, Amotekun to rise up to the occasion and safeguard our land. This is a coded message and hidden agenda from some evil people who meant nothing good for the Yoruba nation and we must put aside our differences and see through their evil plot. We must thoroughly investigate these actions like the intellectuals we are and respond accordingly.
WE WILL TAKE OUR POUND OF FLESH and send a strong message to those jealous beasts wherever they are.
ODUDUWA A GBE WA O! ASE.

Let me just caution.
Youth think
Think and think again.
You all have been played into fighting the wrong person.
Yes Tinubu is a politician but the problem right now is govt.
There is an agenda to take Nigeria over using the north. Buhari might even be out of "sight"
Go and look at all the the appointment in all the ministries and parastatals.
All are notherners about 98% are northerners.
All the properties burnt are supposedly owned by Tinubu and u are here shouting against Tinubu. Will Tinubu burn his own properties?
How come all media publication, houses , hotels, tollgate supposedly owned by Tinubu were torched but dangote refinery was left.
How come Tinubu is in the same ruling party but also in the opposition.
See Tinubu is the only check and balance against the powers of govt against the Southwest whether pdp or apc or whatever. I don't like him but
You need money to fight battles and if Tinubu is gone they will run Southwest over like they have run other eastern states of which Wike is the only opposition trying to curb it.
Youth think.
Fight against the northinization agenda and for a new Nigeria and when we are through we would visit Tinubu and other politician matter.
