AFTER BUSES WERE BURNT DURING #ENDSARS, I TOLD SANWO-OLU TO TELL LAGOSIANS TO WALK — BUHARI President

Muhammadu Buhari says he told Babajide Sanwo-Olu, governor of Lagos, to tell residents of the state to “walk” after buses were burnt during the #EndSARS protest. In October 2020, demonstrations against police brutality were hijacked, leading to razing of vehicles and buildings across the country. Several vehicles under the Bus Rapid Transport (BRT) scheme in Lagos were also burnt. Following the incident, Sanwo-Olu had paid a visit to Buhari with a photo album of the destruction recorded in the state during the protests. Speaking in an interview with the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) on Friday, Buhari said he told the Lagos governor that the federal government didn’t have the funds to replace the burnt buses. “Look at the #EndSARS incident in Lagos. The previous governor of Lagos state bought 200 buses to complement the transportation in Lagos. And he built a complex. But they went and burnt them,” Buhari said. “The present governor made an album and came to see me. I said ‘Thank you very much’. I took the album, put it in my archives and I told him to tell the Lagosians to walk, because we don’t have the money. “After an administration bought over 200 buses, for some people to come and burn it? So, let them walk.”

He is a General.

If buhari had addressed the protesters at the early stage of the ENDSARS protest, we wouldn't have witnessed all this destruction

The burning of those busses was really meaningless..I support Buhari on this abeg

Anofia! Ewu

Borno that has been burnt and re burnt by it's people for jihad still gets billions sent for rebuilding

Yet they contribute nothing to Nigeria let alone lagos


2 billion was used to re-erect fence in maiduguri unattended university, how much is the so called buses you can't fund

The man is a dictator. He had neither believed in nor imbibed the tenets of democracy

Don't get us wrong.

The economy of borno depends solely on Boko Haram.

University itself needs funding like Terrorism.

It would have made no difference.
The destruction and looting took place after SARS has been disbanded.

He will soon address the second phase of protesters.

Essentially he should stop been an hypocrite

He can take rail to Niger another sovereign nation because his "cousins are there" but he can't open just the boarders of Benin Republic for yorubas to connect with their cousins


He can create a northeast development commission strictly for re building what has been burnt by Boko Haram sympathetic barren state but he can't fund an economic project that contribute to the massive funds remitted to the FG

lol slip don cut.. It's very föolish of the Lagos state government not to insure those buses comprehensively. Stúpid people

It is well.

Endsars miscreants and ipob terrorists are working together.

You will never see one condemn the other, they are all PDP Dundees.

Imagine the kind of primitive monkey that is the president of Nigeria.

Because it is the millions of law abiding Lagosians that burnt the BRT buses? Isn't it the duty of government to prevent criminals from vandalising public assets, and bringing such criminal elements to justice? What is the business of the average law abiding citizen with the activities of a few criminals? Why should the president transfer responsibility, culpability and burden to innocent law abiding citizens because of the actions of a few criminals who the government's security forces under his command should identity and deal with?

We are talking of addressing the people and you are talking of disbanding SARS.

Their is no year since 2018 that SARS has not been disbanded and when the president did that casually the people didn't trust him and continued

nzeobi:

We are talking of Endsars which should have been about ending SARS.

If the aim of the protesters is to be addressed, then the protest should have been named
AddressUsNow or something like that.

Their is no year since 2018 that SARS has not been disbanded and when the president did that casually the people didn't trust him and continued

SARS has never ever been disbanded.

You can't destroy what benefit you without thinking of the consequences.

They were burnt by touts and and members of the NURTW who knew they would benefit as commuters would be forced to use danfo buses

Buhari said you can walk. No lamentation.

Walk.

baba, always thinking backwards

See how he's reasoning when Japan completely build a major road destryoed in a day

He just had to throw the baby away with the water

No wonder he was overthrown the last time

Buhari is just a new wine (younger) in an old bottle (his old self)

He put it back in his archives and said thank you.

Then tell them lagosians to walk.
