Turn Back Family Members Who Bring Home Unaccounted Goods — Buhari by ExAngel007(f): 1:33am On Oct 26, 2020
After a week-long #EndSARS protest, violence
had broken out leading to looting of public and
private properties across the country.

Garba Shehu, media aide to the president, in a
statement on Sunday, said the president has
urged the police and other security agencies to
restore calm and normalcy as quickly as possible.

“President Buhari said while his administration
is working hard through many pragmatic ways to
reduce the hardship of the millions of our
unemployed, poor citizens and those whose lives
have been thrown into disarray by the harsh
economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, he
warned that resort to widespread attacks and
the organised looting and plundering of public
and private property in many states are inimical
to public good and stand condemned,” the
statement read.

“A government that has launched a massive
crackdown on corruption, brought in strong laws
for a decisive battle against corruption, pursues
loot recovery at home and abroad, and taken
strong decisions against those who thought they
were above the law, will not fold its arms when
an otherwise legitimate and peaceful protest is
turning into free-for-all vandalism and looting.
“While the administration has, for its part,
blocked so many means of looting public money in
a war against corruption, it is the expectation
that all civil authorities, community and
religious leaders in the country must rise
against the organised looting and plunder we
are witnessing in parts of the country.

“Families must turn back children who bring
home unaccounted goods, in the same way wives
must ask their husbands to return looted items
brought home.”

The president said the incidents of vandalism
and looting do not reflect well on the country’s
image and should not be supported by reasonable
members of the society.

“What is more, is that criminal actions as we
have so far witnessed can weaken and erode the
confidence of our people and that of foreign
businesses in investing in the economy,” he was
quoted as saying.

“Looting and vandalism will hurt trade and
investment growth in our country, both large
and small industries, as well as our hardworking
people in the informal sectors of the economy.”

Violence escalated across the country after
soldiers opened fire on peaceful #EndSARS
protesters at the Lekki toll gate in Lagos on
October 20.

Buhari has come under criticism for not
mentioning the Lekki shooting in his speech to
address the protest, but the presidency insists
that “he had all along avoided going into a
debate about the Lekki toll-gate incidents until
all the facts are established.”

The president, however, appealed to the people
all over the country to maintain peace.

He also commended state governments that have
set up judicial panels to look into human rights
abuses by police officers.

People are hungry. The government was insensitive about the plight of the protesters killed in Lekki toll gate. That shooting escalated the whole burning and looting

That means your family should’ve since rejected you, because I don’t see a difference between you and the average looter who took advantage of the peaceful protests
