Only if Buhari had taken this protest serious from the onset, things won't have degenerated to this. Nigerian youths were complaining about brutality of SARS personnel's, more lives have now been lost to brutality of NA and policemen, destruction of government and citizens properties and businesses.

In the coming weeks, we will witness more increase in price of food commodities as roads have been blocked for nearly a week now. While some people earn salaries and get paid at the end of the month whether they work from home or from their various offices, others need to go out to make their daily bread not forgetting that they've been forced to sit at home for months as a result of the COVID 19 pandemic.

With all these commotion here and there, it is obvious it is the masses that suffers it. It is the masses thats still victims of brutality. I was expecting to see retaliations against the politicians who have put us in all these mess but alas, they're all still walking freely. The number one citizen of the country is even yet to address the Nigerian heterogeneous populace regarding these uprisings.

Now, this is time to withdraw. We have spoken through our voices and they have heard. Let's go back to the drawing board. We've all been a part of the problem that brought Buhari to power because majority of southern youths only argue and vote online.

The last general elections was just about 18months ago. This should be a wake up call to all of us come 2023. We can't sit at home and imaginarily expect our candidates of choice to win and when things don't work out the way we want, after elections, we take to streets to vent our frustrations.

Let's begin to have this consciousness against 2023 that we equally have the power to decide who becomes our president through our PVCs.

Nobody can help us, not UN, USA, UK or any other developed country unless we first help ourselves. Need I also suggest that beginning from now, let's start sensitizing our youths and parents into determining the appropriate checklist in choosing our representatives in the various political spheres because if we continue to elect rogues into power, we should not expect anything less

I need to first understand who we're about to have talks with. Is it the same vegetable that addresses us in third persons? He can't even address us by himself.

The only time he comes to us is during elections. Thats when he's even dressed in all national, cultural regalia. He only delegates osibanjo and his dogs to do the PR jobs for him.

We've never had a president in this country who can address Nigerians for 30 seconds without having to read from a script. Not even the Zoologist PhD holder.

If Buhari can address us without reading any script for at least 5 minutes, then I will believe that his administration is ready to start implementing our demands.

Imagine how much loss daily if the protest is extended to Apapa

The battle now is onto another level

Sorry, Kogites. Protest is over already. Be sure to be current about news regarding live events next time, please

Its now day haff break for some people. What's the point continuing this protest after the president and IGP speech regarding disbarment?

Is EndSars the only pertinent issue to be addressed in this nation now?

I don't understand why this country pays the least attention to education.

Although, the dreaded SARS have caused more harm than good, rather than proscribe them completely, can't sanctions be applied to erring officers? Fact is, the southern parts of Nigeria which includes south south, south west and south east are characterized by a lot of nefarious activities which includes armed robbery, kidnappings, rituals, yahoo yahoo and so forth. Due to the present situation of the country, and social class competitions that we are awashed with on social media, most youths in the south have resorted to crime.
A lot of people will argue that SARS have killed and extorted more innocent people than the actual culprits of these crimes but I strongly feel some of them are responsible for these harassments.
A lot of youths who are not into any illegality dress irresponsibly, this alone is a red flag for any SARS official while some persons are just so eager to flaunt their wealths either on social media or in real life.
Now, if they're proscribed l, won't it be a field day for crime agents?
I don't even know what I'm saying self.

My own concern is why do we have Righteousness89, Righteousness88, Righteosness89 and MrsRighteousness? Has nairaland now been turned to a Revivalland?
