6 underground, this movie plot should be used against this wicked government, not simple i know, but we need enough resources and skilled men at the very best of what they do, a coup to overthrow, kill and bury this treacherous, wicked and abomination called buhari and cabal, not just to reinstall another person but to halt things for some years and renegotiate this country's constitution for a new order... If not i fear it may get worse than this...

Poverty, hunger, pain and suffering are the strongest weapons of control ever known and used by the people in government to subdue their subjects.

Anyone who wants to plan an overthrow or coup must have done so with high level of professionalism and discreteness bcuz those he might intend to plot with might just be another set of hungry lots looking for their own opportunity to get a little drop of token from their oppressors just to feed themselves and their families. If you look at how policemen shot at protesters and how the military is doing all they can to serve the people's common enemy, you'll marvel at our callousness as a people. Everybody is suffering and almost suffocating in Nigeria today just bcuz of bad governance yet, some people's father could pick up arms and shoot at protesters who are requesting for a better Nigeria for them and the people shooting them. Is it not pathetic?

Bros, let anybody who have ears listen, the workability of the project NIGERIA is nothing but an illusion. Plan a coup and see how the North will rise against any meaningful thing you do as a government. More like they're happy destitutes in their own country.

Funny con man

Surprised? Nah!

Not anymore. Let us kuku end the whole panel madness. Those of you who asked for probe panel, there you have it.

See him mouth like thief own. Abi him be thief sef.

I have been contemplating on contracting out my website development job to a guy I saw his advert here on Nairaland. His charges are relatively cheap and paying him outrightly is not my fear but I'm afraid he too might just abscond with my money and that's why I've been stalling on the deal since.

If you have ever paid someone you met on Nairaland to help you design a website and you got what you paid for, plz help a skeptic. Times are hard now to lose my hard-earned money.

ObaKlaz:
Maybe you have not noticed yet... The momentum is fizzling out. The same evil status quo we rose against is returning gradually. Politicians are returning to 'business as usual'. Nigerians are relapsing to their docility.

You're right. It's gradually getting back to business as usual but you know what? It's dawn on me that Nigeria might not work out after all, so if anyone desire a better life, his/her best bet is to exit this country. There's no sign of things getting any better

ivolt:
Mumu clout chaser. Who made him the spokesperson for the people and who gave him a mandate to make policy pronouncements? His family benefits immensely from the corrupt civil service and connections and here he is claiming saint. Would he care to explain how his father became a billionaire and cornered several choice real estate in Lagos? He and his father had used police for personal errands on several occasions.
Maybe the few interview he did has gotten into his head. Real revolutionaries don't hide behind the safety of Twitter keyboards while pushing others to do his bidding.

Your point?

backbone503:
Nigeria is messed up, no doubt, but attempting to fix it via politically motivated unrest capable of infringing on the rights of others and undermining national security will definitely not be treated with kid gloves.

Government has so far heeded to the genuine demands of #EndSARS. If anyone is unhappy with the present government, 2023 is just around the corner.

You made a good point but how do we different a peaceful protest from the "politically motivated unrest" that you talked about or are we trying to deny people their constitutional right to peacefully assemble to make their voices heard?

Is it unconstitutional to demand good governance from government via protest? For crying out loud this is democracy and we should always respect that.

I'm not a supporter of violent protest or one which is used to infringe on the rights of others but we all know how this thing works in the western world. Government is supposed to provide security for the protesters but of course I know it doesn't work that way here.

Remember how videos of some alledged DSS officials conveyed thugs to disrupt the peaceful protest at Abuja and how a Lag bus conveyed thugs to Alausa. It's interesting that nobody is probing that incidence and infact it's back to business as usual for those concerned. In contrast, we all read how accounts of some youtha were frozen.

Is this how to govern aright?

2023 might appear to be around the corner but is life that guaranteed for of us? They're more than a million ways to die or be killed in Nigeria. Is the country doomed? Is it too much to demand for the basic things of life today instead of wait until 2023?

This country is in its own class.

backbone503:
Their sponsors were known. Government just threaded cautiously and tactically, hence, the swift disbandment of SARS and acceptance of the conditions put forward by #ENDSARS. The protest was snowballing into a greater security threat, and government had to promptly deal with it decisively.

Going forward, the IGP has hinted on government's position: Such protests will no longer be accommodated, and the police should use maximum force to protect themselves when confronted. The message is clear enough.

This sounds more like a threat. In case you're saying this as an independent/concerned Nigerian, pls refrain from using such words. There's no fear in the face of a dying man... Hope you know. It's only people who have a good life that knows the worth of their life.

There's hardship in the land and people are fed up. Some people are actually ready to hit the street no matter what. Let's not overheat the polity with our utterances please. It's been long said that NIGERIA is sitting on a gunpowder but most of you don't know what that means.

Our government don't even have the accurate data of Nigeria's unemployed graduates. The number is alarming. Look at the numbers of thugs in Lagos alone that get their daily bread from thuggery act. Consider the number of almajiris that have grown up to become young adults who have nothing tangible doing.

Nigeria is walking on a tight thin rope but our government aren't sensitive enough. The day the people realize that power resides with them, that marks the end of the road for politicians. Let's watch what we say please. Government and governed

ramatintin:
so because they support atiku they should stand aside in the face of injustice and extrajudicial killings by SARS.

Azzin!


The fact they supported an opposition means they shouldn't exercise their constitutional right to protest. I mean protest against extra judicial killings.

What's wrong with a Blackman's mind plz. I'm finding it difficult to understand the connection between their political affiliations with the current issue of EndSars. Are we saying enough is actually not enough with our SARS officers ni? Or are we saying it's overboard to demand for good governance as Nigerians?

I would have bought into this whole plot of discrediting the young men and women if they had shown us how money moved from Atiku's account to these people's account and where they met to discuss the whole protest shit.

Enough of all these stupidity from whoever is paying these folks to discredit the protest and protesters. Nobody is talking about the alleged DSS guys that was caught on camera conveying thugs to disrupt the peaceful protest at Abuja. We've also buried the BRT bus that carried thugs to Alausa. Instead, the initiator of the tweet and the op wouldn't stop at anything to shift our focus to past events that have nothing to do with the current issue at hand. More like they're trying to justify the government action for freezing their accounts.

AMINDA:
In addition, the so-called peaceful endsars protesters had a dedicated telegram group where they openly brandished weapons, covered up atrocities and threatened dissenting voices in a herd-like manner. I strongly believe this was where the fake pictures were manufactured and disseminated leading to the arson and anarchy in the land.

Follow this Twitter thread for more implicating images and voicenotes from the Telegram group.

Just asking ni ooo.... And how come you're privy to these sensitive information?

Don't play the OSINT card for me please....

Right from the initiator of the tweet to the OP and about 6 to 8 monikers who commented on the 1st page of thread arouse my strong suspicion.

Dear Nairalanders,

If you're old enough to follow Fela Anikulapo Ransom Kuti history in his lifetime till death, down to Abiola's story, you'll know how perilous it is to front anything in Nigeria.

Unless you have foreign backing, I repeat, dear common Nigerians, do not attempt to ask or demand for your right. Ours is not a sovereign state. It is true you have freedom of speech but YOUR FREEDOM AFTER THE SPEECH IS NOT GUARANTEED.

2face wanted to spearhead Occupy Nigeria but ended up backing out. E get why oooo....!

Make una wise up. Their agents are on this forum too and I'm sure the moniker am quoting is one of them. How is it a crime to support a politician during election? Begging for money from atiku wouldn't have been a crime today if that same Atiku won the election.... But bcuz his fellow Fulani man won, we're here today to discuss how a Yoruba man is been questioned for supporting the president's tribesman.

Mancrossfire:
Lol, is like you are a grand master in Africanism. Maybe you should teach me work

My brother, na over religiousness dem use dey enslave us. All the swearing with Bible and Quran hasn't taken us anywhere in this country. Let's get back to the African root and let's substitute these scriptural books with African metaphysics.

Our politicians have turned us to mumu nau bcuz they know God would not strike them immediately. So they're toying with God by swearing with Bible or Quran

Mancrossfire:
Since the birds had learned to fly without perching, hunter will learn to shoot without missing!

Since our leaders had learned to lie without conscience let them be given juju to swear with. Only then will the people take their words seriously otherwise everything from the mouth of these blood suckers are lies upon lies.

You fired blank ammunition in the air, How come two people died? Or does it mean that gun powder from blank ammunition fired into air can kill people? Because Gov Sanwo olu confirmed the other day that two people were killed during the shooting at lekki toll gate

If they'll permit me, we actually don't need any juju or charm for them to swear with. All I will ask from them is alligator pepper and 3 bottles of dry gin. Then I will demand for a bucket and ask all their security aides to drop their guns inside the bucket while I pour the alligator pepper and dry gin on top the guns and allow the alligator pepper and gin to ferment for a while.

Then each and every one of them should be asked to step forward and drink out of it and say some negative words on themselves if they ever have a hand in the Lekki shooting. Afterwards, we all go home and case closed.

The rest is for us to be hearing how stray bullet will be killing some of them even from God knows where location

tollyboy5:
this is very Bad! Nigeria army are disgrace to humanity. but im yet to see pictures and videos of the shooting and others.

so i wont believe completely , even the OP look like someone with ulterior motives already

The life video of the Lekki tollgate was claimed to be Photoshopped and pro government apologists say nobody stepped forward to ask for their missing sons/daughters.

Here you are again asking for videos when names of victims have been publicized and numbers of the dead has been given. I'm sure when you get the videos or pictures, you'll demand for autopsy on the dead to confirm they're dead.

All the best to Nigeria and our roforofo politics.

I see this government manhandling this whole EndSars wahala all over again. They might be a second wave of the protest with all I'm seeing.

ArewaWife:
Where was the kidnapped victim held?

Victim was held hostage in Sokoto State, Nigeria.

Also remember to note the place the kidnapping took place. He was kidnapped in Niger Republic. The narrative should be very concise and direct.

emperor863:
God bless you real good. This shows that a lot of reasonable persons are still on the Nairaland forum.

The News outlet and the op that posted this story, yes story are just playing to the gallery.

This is because even a school cert holder knows that this story should not be brought to the public space now that a judicial panel of enquiry has been duely and legally constituted to unravel all the mystery that transpire at Lekki toll gate on 20th October this year.

The people that you rightly observed to be crying more than the bereaved are doing so for a purpose but unfortunately others have not seen beyond their facade believing they are open minded. Recall that the song on their lips now is southern Nigeria solidarity. After insulting others for years and calling them betrayals just because they voted put a drunken master whose ineptitude I'd still glaring even to the blind.

I want to join you in advising them to remove the log of wood in their eyes before vainly attempting to remove the speck of wood from the ryes of other who, inspire of challenges can see farther than they can.

As far as I am concerned this is nothing bit story. If it were to be a testimony or an account of what transpired at Lekki, let the reporters take to the judicial panel probing the incident.

I wish to state that as a true Nigerian, I will never subscribe to any attempt to gloss over the truth because it is a crime against God, nature and humanity. If at the end of the day, somebody or a group of persons are found to have contravened the laws of the nation, they should be named, shamed and punished. But enough of all these grandstanding.

Hello Nairalanders,

Kindly note these moniker and it likes.

Na them. Awon political media warriors.

LegendHero:
I rushed here to see the identity of several of those killed since Premium Times tagged it Blood bath.

They are also making the same mistake of just speculations and attributing everything to Lekki shootings without showing us exactly why this is a massacre.

It’s very simple. We are in the days of social media and there are over 500+ people at the lekki shootings with phone camera on the D-Day.

If no one can present a cogent pictorial evidence of the said 13 or 78 killed people or other dead bodies they said the military took away since over 10days now, then this Rubbish of emotionally shouting Lekki Massacre need to stop.

Na so so speculations of this and that all because you want to push it down our throat that such number of people died while you want us to swallow emotionally without asking for proof.

We don hear you.

PVision2020:
Op, please start creating threads about the continuous killings of your people in Oyigbo, the real massacre is happening there. Stop hypocritically crying more than the bereaved.

You people are known to carry other people's problem for head like gala and summarily look away from yours.
You've been every where criticising Tinubu and Sanwoolu for the Lekki shootings (erroneously and mischievously called massacre) but Wike and the military is using your people as shooting practice in Oyigbo with pictorial and video evidence of the massacre but who are you to say pim to your Lord Wike.
Few months ago the Army still kill dozens of your people in Enugu with no one criticising the governor, as a matter of fact it took days before any Igbo leaders said anything about the massacre.
The effeminate Peter Obi and his estranged alcoholic godson Obiano supervised the gruesome killings of hundreds of your people and dump their body to rotten at the Ezu River with none of you calling for their heads.
Same thing happen in afara ukwu and several other killings, but that one no consign una, na other people matter una dey choke mouth.

We can see beyound your hypocritical agenda. Killings are happened/happening in all SE states start focusing your attention on that and stop crying more than the bereaved.
The panel as been set up, let anyone who is affected by the Lekki shootings come forward to get justice.

I hope you demand same from Wike, Peter Obi, Obiano, Ugwuanyi, Ekweremadu, Ikpeazu, Umahi and several others that has supervised the killing of your people.
The SE lives too matters.

Hypocrities!!!

Are you taking side with the murderers or you're trying to justify the gruesome killings?

Aren't we in this shit hole together ni?

DrFunmisticGlow:
A pathologist is a doctor who examines bodies and body tissues. He or she is also responsible for performing specific lab tests, for example during an operation, any tissue taken fron the body for histology to find out what type of tissue it is (maybe it is a fibroid or cancer) will be examined by a pathologists. Pathologists hardly deal with live patients, they are almost always in the lab looking at tissues under a microscope or in the motuary, doing autopsies.it wasn't LLC that went to military hospital but the panel

Read through what I wrote again... Never said the LLC visited any mortuary.... They're the company in charge of Lekki tollgate

Flier:
Isn’t it obvious Dj switch lied ?or why are they looking for something that wasn’t lost

I read comments like this and I weep for this country. Whoever dies for this country that have your kind as survivors died wrongfully as said by Fela Anikulapo Kuti. Those protesters thought they were doing Nigerians a just cause when they were being gunned down on that unfaithful night. Only for people of your kind to raise and pitch your tent with the oppressors. I shake my head.

It is one thing to not support the protest and it's another story entirely to insult the dead by knowingly taking sides with their murderers just to make it seem like "them against us". Truth is that we're all gonna suffer the same fate someday. Death is inevitable. It's just a matter of time, we'll all be gone some day.

What would have been more appropriate in this situation is to keep mum or just scroll past the thread. It's callous of anyone to come out to say the Army didn't kill anyone on that night bcuz we all agree that some people sustained gun/bullet injury (at least you agree with the Lagos State governor on that).

You equally didn't feel suspicious of the fact that the LLC said they have footage of the whole shootings on the night and the committee said they're not ready to review that yet but went in search of the mortuary first. Is this a plot to give their editors the ample time needed to cut off all the part where bodies were being carried away by the army?

It's unfortunate that some youths have to die protesting for you and your families to live a better life in Nigeria and yet, all you could say after their demise is that they were never killed nor were their bodies ever taken away.

tetralogyfallot:
are u kidding me? That's N60m, make dem hold their citizenship o.

Like seriously if I have that money, we move!

Naija don cast. Even the rich are struggling here.

BOOZELEE:
Clueless Abuja IG

He should visit orile station where every thing started in Lagos.

For now police should work and patrol with the navy,army and air force till they regain there moral.

Under cover Intelligence unit should go to areas were police men were murdered and station burnt.They should go there and investigate and arrest all the hoodlums that killed and burnt police station..especially orile.

Lastly they should work with videos circulated online where police men were lynched,and arrest those involved.

Are you referring to the same OSINT that the Nigerian Army claimed was photoshopped?

Are you saying the same videos making the rounds should be considered credible enough for intelligence gathering in the area of investigating brutality on our policemen and not be used in the case of the Lekki tollgate massacre?

Unless we restructure Nigeria, I'm sorry the improvements we crave for might be some centuries away.

thebosstrevor1:
Dont be deceived, many voters are not on social media, stop hyping social media

Bros, I will rather wallow in this deception and enjoy watching how it unsettles all the unpatriotic Nigerians that hold political offices than be on the other side of the fence and pretend all is well even in the face of obvious realities.

adioolayi:
I see....You see no good ever coming out of NIGERIA. Don't worry, Nigeria is on the path to greatness...God bless Nigeria

I hope you see good in your very self Desired change begins with you

As much as I try not to trade words with you, it seem like you're so fired up for it.

The Nigeria of our dreams is quite different from the Nigeria of our reality. We all crave for a new dawn, in fact, some have fasted and prayed for it. If only God would compromise his standards for Nigerians, we would have planted yam and reap Apples.

Wake up boy, your president holds a contestable secondary school certificate while his vice is a professor and a senior advocate. You must be daydreaming or hallucinating to expect anything good from that combo.

Nigeria will work the day you start calling a spade by its name.

adioolayi:
Can you tell me the best approach to get the youth representatives asides the way these two were nominated Can you suggest two people you think would have been better

I await your response.

You're still stuck with the thought that I have problem with those nominated or the nominees of that committee. Wake up. I'm not bothered about those, my concern is how much will be budgeted for the whole exercise and how large some people are going to benefit from it.

Still sleeping on the bicycle? Wake up!

It's beginning to become a laughing stock.

Terrible things happening in a terrible country at a terrible time.

adioolayi:
Too late to change the narrative....your words and intentions were very clear. Every sane person knows what you meant...and it's unfortunate you reason this way.
Anyways.... Nigeria youths are wiser now....your likes will be put at the place they belong.. Dungeon.

You're doing well. Oooin!


Obviously you're still new to the Nigerian political landscape. When reports of how much was budgeted for this panel makes it way to the public and you hear how the said Youth nominee complained bitterly about how he bought bottle water from his purse to attend such meetings, your myopic mind will draw back to my comment here.... obviously you're too shallow minded to see the end before it even begins.

Like seriously where did the church get all these food items from?

And who else saw the woman that left from the wing of those covering the looting and went to help a woman carry her loots on her head?

The monster is only just reveling itself. This should send a signal to the ruling class. The day they finish looting the middle class, they're surely going to be the next.

adioolayi:
No wonder your likes were not nominated.

... Trust me it's actually funny seeing how reflective of your stup1d1ty your wordings are.

I didn't attack anyone. "Someone's gonna walk out stupidly rich" doesn't mean it's got anything to do with the nominees but your height of mumuism will always make it ahead of you.

Get well soon.

Someone is gonna walk out stupidly rich. I fear who no fear Nigerian politician.
