Cos they are the most beneficiary to this government...

Nothing like poverty or insecurities in the North any longer so why should they stress themselves in protesting..

Protesting what exactly?

Obviously, you are also suffering hardship.

Trying to take all other tribes to the cleaners while erosion and poverty are eating deep into your head

The guy asked a valid question and he didn't make it sound a tribal affair but you lacked decorum, and choose to respond like the animal you are.

Just because you were made to believe what you only know about the North doesn't make it entirely true. Thats why you ll always be wondering, why this? why that?

Wait till a Southerner is president,
During Obasanjo and GEJ's presidency, the North were restless,
Truth is Northern protest are strictly sanctioned by their Islamic clerics, and they would NEVER call out themselves

The way the North thinks is not the way the South thinks. Northerners will not join any protest while one of them is is in power. Infact, most Northerners see ENDSARS protest as a nuisance aimed at threatening their power base

Because they are backward thinking people and nothing good comes from that side

They won't join protests for the same reason people in the South East and South south did not join anti-subsidy protests and the same reason why the South west voted for Obasanjo in 2003 despite poor performance in his first term....and the same reason why Christians in the country did not join the Shiites in their protests, and the same reason why no one joined IPOB in their protests for secession.


Because when your son is in power, you get benefits from that. And the sad thing is Nigerians have the idea that 'having one's son in power' means more benefits.

And thus, any protest seen as a threat to their 'son in power' is met with resistance....even IF the issues raised by the protesters are affecting them badly too. SARS is active in the North, and police brutality is a thing in the North. Even fulani herdsmen suffer from police inaction and brutality, which is why many of them take the laws into their hands....

Part of the problem too came from the ENDSARS protesters.....who failed to enlighten the North on why ENDSARS, AND who brought in other issues that the North opposes...like restructuring etc.

Islam says anything that happens is the will of Allah. Protesting is like going against the will of Allah. This is the Islamic doctrine of obedience to your leader.
However, this can be manipulated depending on who the leader is. If leader is a Christian they can protest validly since the same Koran tells them not to accept leadership from non-Muslims.

You speak my mind in the last paragraph..... SARS wasnt a menance in the North, so u don't expect them to just join u in protest, thats y even when they protest, its against insecurity.

Did the endsars organisers liase with any youth group from the North?
