You see, a big problem with buhari is his illiteracy, but the biggest problem he has are the hordes of unintelligent Fulani fellas he's surrounded with. How anybody in the world of 2020 will deny a deliberate MASSACRE by the military and thinks he/she can deceive the world about it is just beyond me.

Does Buahari and those his army of unintelligent almajiris think the world is Katsina or Ira-agbiji in Osun state where you throw wads of #200 note to voters and get them to do your will?

In 2018, during the drive of Fulani terrorists genocide in the middle belt region, Buhari sent his online urchins to deny that what was going on is a genocidal attempt by the Fulanis, rather that it is a casual farmers/herders clashes. But most Unfortunately despite the fact that lives where lost these online urchins accepted a token of blood money in order to deny what was obvious. But did that deceive the world? Absolutely NO! Just a year later the US slammed him (Buhari) with charges of ethnic cleansing, put many govt officials on travel list, placed Nigeria on special watchlist and now they about sanctioning Nigeria officially.

Any intelligent person seeing what happened in 2018 would have adviced the ingnoble regime of Buhari to thread softly, but no, the almajiri north who do not have any bit of sense urged him to shoot at armless protesters. Now that the videos of the military massacre are everywhere, the same thinkless almajiris are trying hard to deny it. But not so fast! The world doesn't start and end on the internet. Already many civil societies, including Amnesty international and others have submitted petitions to the US state department giving account of what transpired that day, and even the videos taken by DJ Switch must have been carefully scrutinized, many evidences have also been collated and verified and now the verdict is that there was a MASSACRE at Lekki tollgate!

So for the BMC crew and the pay per post online warriors, I tell you, you've only to enjoy the monies you are paid, after all it's yours. But tell your ogas the truth that next time they should tread cautiously, because this world is not the same as when Obasanjo committed the Odi massacre, nor is it the same as the time of the Nigerian civil war.

A lot has changed and if buhari doesnt change course, best believe the next protest will consume him and Nigeria.
Morons said is not massacre, its shooting

Shey lekki massacre didn't happen ahbi

So far only two people are confirmed dead. We are not told they died of gunshot wound and Governor Sanwo Olu assures there are CCTV recording of the whole Lekki incidence on Tuesday Lagos remains ready to hand over to any investigative judicial panel.

Is it then wise of you Igbos to keep speaking like this and insisting a "massacre" took place?

Is it not obvious many of you Igbos, like DJ Switch, are driven by hate for Nigeria and Nigerians, indoctrinated in you by your parents and family, you can now never switch off?

Which normal, rational , objective, sane and mentally balanced person would behave as you Igbos are doing?

Look at the international community.They were up in arms Tuesday night and Wednesday demanding strongly that perpetrators of the "massacre" must be punished.
By Friday total and deafening silence from an international community that realise it has been 'played'.

Normal people have long accepted, on the face of incontrovertible evidence, that there was no massacre. Well hope it is now clear to our leaders that letting Igbos go there way is the only option for Nigeria to thrive. A husband forcing a wife no longer in love with him, and that can't stand the sight or touch of him, to remain in a marriage is only destroying himself ultimately.

Sell it to Sky News, BBC news, CNN or Al Jazeera first before hawking it before ordinary Nairalanders. Those news agencies will pay handsomely ,if the footage you have is authentic and 'juicy'. They will ensure the world sees the "massacre". No need coming here in mischief.

You know where to go and what to do if indeed you have filmed evidence of a "massacre". Expose the Nigerian Government . We are waiting and behind you.

Watch the video. She was adjusting her hair at the beginning consciously and vainly. Which geniunely grieving and distraught mother does that? While not proof she is fake it is a very odd thing to witness.

Also, the way the interviewer kept shouting "keep sharing we are up to 33" would have been an insult to a genuine parent who has just lost a child. No parent would allow their child to be propaganda material at a stage they are yet to even get conclusive answers about how their child died.

What we saw played out because the 'mother' was in cahoot with the interviewer hence the very weird nature of the interview. It was contrived more as a vindictive propaganda video to malign and discredit the Government rather than a genuine interview seeking to allow a grieving mother tell her part about what she knows over her child's death.

The truth will come out and I am sure, once again, it likely will be exposed that this is more IPOB propaganda. What some of us already know, that many other Nigerians do not, is the desperation of IPOB and many Igbos to cause serious problems for Nigeria. It is something the Nigerian government must confront truthfully and sincerely rather than continue to issue politically correct statements of "one Nigeria" .

By exerggerated I mean soldiers shot into the air and stray bullets killed just the two Governor Sanwo-olu confirmed dead and not the 78 or 15 flung around social media. By exerggerated I mean there were more of injuries sustained but much fewer deaths than claimed. Please note that I am not in anyway taking sides with the government on this. Even if it turned out that the incident was blown out of proportion for political and other reasons, the fact that the Nigerian Army denies that soldiers were there is bad enough. Even one death on protesters meted out by soldiers is too bad. I condemn the shootings that happened that day and feel for sorry for the individuals and (their families) confirmed dead as well as those who sustained injuries fighting for a better Nigeria. I empathize with those who were there, to have even witnessed soldiers shooting in the air (if that was what really happened) for several minutes is traumatic enough. I am just trying to get a clearer picture of what really happened that night. I am trying to be logical and not allowing my emotions to sway my reasoning. I am trying not to subscribe to an alleged rumour solely because such a rumour is very popular.
seguno2:


When you say exaggerated, do you mean that instead of 78 dead, maybe only 18 people died
Or do you mean that there was no shooting by soldiers, and no one died?

Did the governor tell you the two people who died were shot? The whole point is that many are insisting, to driven their private agenda, that the Nigerian army carried out a shooting "massacre" of protestors. They have claimed 89, 78, 11 or 10 people died from gunshot wounds.

Sane and rational people are saying, on the strength of very strong evidence available, no massacre took place. Why must some people , especially those who were not at Lekki, continue to insist a massacre took place?

People like you at not helping. If you cant think or talk like a responsible adult, fully aware that fake news kill, then learn to shut up.

May be lies but plausible and logical enough. That said the puzzle of why the lights were off that night has been solved. The puzzle of what protesters stand to gain lying about being shot at has been cleared as well. The major issue for me now is, were there soldiers at that place that night? If yes, why is the Nigerian Army denying it? I am not talking about whether the soldiers shot into the air or at the people or whether there was a massacre or not. The issue to me is were there soldiers there at all? All indications so far points that there were soldiers there.

Cowardice Hypocrisy


Face who face you




Criminals will always return to their crime scene. It's an absolute rule.


Look at the hypocritical shameless things. Cowards. Never in tune with reality



Ever heard the statement that guilty persons are the one who cry the most.

Act One, Scene One...

I will hastily declare a curfew...says the other guy on the other end of the phone.


..when I declare the curfew,it will be so hasty that many will be trapped, come and spray them off and make sure you do a neat job ..



Forgetting things don't always go as planned



Finally when it all blows up, the hypocritical coward as usual same way the Russian card is played,blames a guy in United Kingdom to divert attention from his crime



Infact because of his calm look, he receives the gullible feigning innocence meanwhile was the master craft behind the Carnage .He goes further to launder his actions by being the first to visit survivors in the hospital


There you have it. Humanity greatest trickster of 2020

The loyal omoluabi himself. The coward hypocritical two-faced criminal and massrcist like no other.Babajide Sanwo Olu

A woman whose son died in the Lekki shootings has spoken up to counter the claims that no one died.

Shortly after peaceful protesters were shot at on October 20, 2020, pictures started flying around of a young man named Anthony Okechukwu, who died in the shootings.

Anthony's mother, who lives outside Nigeria, has now spoken out. She said she found out about her son's death online when she saw his photo being circulated.

She added that no one from the government has called to commiserate with her on her son's death

Watch video here

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJGkEHeiWl8


If you are an objective reporter, amend this post with the correct information that her son died in an accident in Aba! This lie has been debunked.

Seun and Mods, this site should not be used to propagate falsehoods that will push the country into chaos
