Babe, please don't let them intimidate you the way they intimidated Desmond Elliot.

Below was my comment the first day this whole brouhaha about Desmond Elliot's speech on the floor of the LAHA started.

Read:
What kind of cyber bullying is all these?

Is Lagos the only state holding a probe on last week's destruction of lives and properties by the #ENDSARS protesters?

Even artists whose 80% lyrical contents are about Yahoo Yahoo,sex, drugs and prostitution are also abusing the woman.

It's a fact that where two or three youths are gathered these days drugs are involved both male and female groups.Talk less of where two or three artists and celebrities are gathered.

Why are we so hypocritical in this country?

In 1980 500 naira could buy a motorcycle now in 2020 it can't even transport somebody one way in a state.

But yes because a small minority of rich children can buy iPhone it must mean life is easy for everyone. How many of the 100 million youths even have 300k in their bank accounts to spend? How many even have jobs?

I'm sure you dint read that post, otherwise you won't be saying this.

When I saw him being dragged, I also wondered if he killed someone. A particular IG blog was even trying to silence him with pictures of his babymamas- can you beat that? I really do hate cheats, but I couldn’t find the correlation between his speech, the insults on his person and digging into his private life.

Anyway, it is the new trend on social media- they never take their time to process information. Here on NL, once the first few commenters post in one direction, it would take a really brave person to face another direction. Trust me, some know the noise wasn’t worth it, but they are scared of being e-lynched by our recent hyperactive online Martin Luthers.

It's all relative. Money could have value then. But then again how many people earn 50k back then. That's not the point.

The point is this generation take things for granted. Our fathers did not even have access to the technology we have now.

Most of them did not even drive cars all their life. It was a pipe dream for them.

But here we are today..free democracy the protest. Education s behind us. Technology and all. What is our gratitude to the ones before us?

Abuse. More abuse. They failed us.

Bunch of fools. Your father failed you. Yet your life's compared the their s is far better.

Some days back, the Nigerian social media users were dragging Desmond Elliot like Tiger generator because he tagged the youths as children. I was a bit indifferent about the whole brouhaha because wetin I dey think big pass all that noise and after watching the now infamous video, my indifference did not change.

Desmond later came out to apologise in tears for calling us yoots 'shidren', and while I was wondering aloud on this forum what the whole fuss about, my friend told me offline told me this-

"The problem is that the Nigerian social media space is now a lynch mob. Nobody is ready to listen to common sense, people are incapable of comprehending simple ideas and people are very intolerant of any view that does not agree with theirs

People are reacting to Desmond Elliot's video based on what they think he said, not based on what he actually said"

This friend shared the full YouTube clip with me and after watching it again, I realised how very toxic social media has become.

I stumbled on an article by Ivan-Whyte Eagle Lawson who has articulated my thoughts on this whole distracting nonsense featuring Desmond as the lead character.

Long post alert!! Stop here if your attention span is one tweet long.

You've only spoken like a Non Nigerian. And I see you too apologising pretty soon. The only guard you have is that you've done yours under the guise of a small social medium. Do you know what a house of a assembly member is? Let me educate your brain that has been gushing out those rubbish and braggadociously feeling it has conquered . An house member before laying or uttering any word in the house, seeks his constituency first. Desmond represents the youths of surulere, and once they are not connected to what he would (has) said, the conflict must surely arise not minding the module of sense he will (has) made. Lack of proper communication cause conflict like they say and interpretation is relative! Oga you just did yours. The koko now is; according to WI Thomas; '' Reality I what the people say it is'', so right now, the bandwagon is the movement, and once they aren't connected with any rubbish, it remains rubbish!!!! Oga! Go spill this wack some where else! #movement

My verdict-

While you people are here screaming at Desmond Elliot, hope you know the price of a bag of Onions has gone up from 3,500 to 7k, bag of local rice from 25 to 28k while sachet tomato don climb from 50 naira to 120 naira, amongst other demonic increases and it is not yet festive season o!
