Flog sense enter their head abeg. If you can't protest peacefully without infringing on people's fundamental human rights, thereby creating a big nuisance, then you deserved to be dealt with.
I thought they were going to beat the soldier. Na that time you go know say Nigeria no be Egypt
No worry, until you or ya family enter police brouhaha u go know say SARS na endtime police unit.
I think u all are quite unfair to the police here.. Look at the countries u mentioned.. do they have the type of society we have here? Are their police not well paid, their police officers live fine while their politicians dont live extremely wealthy. Here, our leaders steal all the money and pay policemen poorly.
The countries u mention, their policemen have good life insurance, they are well kitted for operation, they have good equipment for operations. They are well protected but here, policemen live in dead barracks, they cant even afford to buy a decent car, they cant send their kids to good schools, they need to steal to live well. A SARS officer can be killed any day.. Each time they leave for work, it seems it is their last day. When they die, their families are abandoned. An average police man in nigeria can not build a house from a decent money, never.
Also, those countries u mentioned, unemployment is low compared to Nigeria.. they dont av crazy citizens who are unemployed and steal a lot. My brother, Nigeria police can not experience the Nigeria system and be acting like policemen in Finland or Norway who are experiencing advanced society and system.
Justifying police brutality due to their poor renumeration is like justifying yahoo yahoo due to unemployment.
Brotherly I'd like you to read through this thread and you'll judge if he really doesn't deserve more than that....just read through and see the typa beast this man is
Doraty1: #EndSARS protesters at the Lagos state house of assembly have rejected water and soft drinks donated by Musiliu Akinsanya, better known as MC Oluomo.
The rejection was in reaction to an attack unleashed on the protesters by thugs at the state assembly on Thursday.
MC Oluomo, who is the chairman of the Lagos state chapter of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW), was alleged to be the sponsor of the attack.
But he denied the allegation.
The protests have persisted in Lagos for more than week and still reverberating.
Some good for nothing ladies will use the opportunity of #SayNoToRape to accuse some individuals. Very soon we no go know the truth from the false. God save us men dem
The age-long communal war over a piece of land between Allah/Onugwa and Odekpe communities in Anambra West council area of Anambra State took another dimension on Thursday as the Divisional Police Officer [DPO] in charge of the council area and two of his men were reportedly abducted by suspected warlords at Odekpe community.
The DPO had led a team of police officers to the two warring communities to restore peace following the renewed hostilities that claimed seven lives from both communities.
While Allah/Onugwa people said that four persons were killed on their side with 150 buildings destroyed, Odekpe claimed that three of their members were killed and three buildings touched.
A resident of Allah/Onugwa, Uzor David, told Daily Sun that the DPO first led his team to his community and after assessing the level of carnage in the community, also proceeded to Odekpe to also carryout similar assessment.
He said that stakeholders from the area including the representative of Anambra East and West in the National Assembly, Chinedu Obidigwe; the Commissioner for Lands, Bonaventure Enemali; and a traditional ruler from the area, Igwe Pius Omachonu, had met and resolved that the police should embark on a fact-finding mission to the areas.
“After they deliberated on many issues yesterday, they resolved that mobile policemen should be sent to go and view the area and bring information back to them.
“Those mobile policemen that came were many. They passed through Allah/Onugwa, they saw what happened. They proceeded to Odekpe. Our place is not that motorable. When they got to Inoma community, they stopped.
“They packed their vehicles and picked motorcycles. They passed through our place and on getting to Odekpe; when the people sighted them, knowing that they are mobile policemen, they started shooting at them.
“The policemen had no option than to fire back. Two people fell down from Odekpe side based on the information we got. They captured three policemen now. The DPO representing all of us is in their custody.
“As I am talking to you now, he is unconscious. Somebody called me to tell me that the DPO may not survive it. The other two mobile policemen are still in their custody. They are dealing with them”, he narrated.
Efforts to reach the Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Haruna Mohammed, a Superintendent of Police, proved abortive as he did not pick calls to his phone. He had, about two days ago, confirmed that there were clashes between the two communities.
Lol, u talk as if nor be Nigeria you dey. Soldiers have use unnecessary force to killed citizen in this very warri before.
Rules of engagement for you own citizen?
Am just surprise when some of you talk. The guy was unharmed, the soldier shoot him from the back and the head. I am made to understand that those weapon are for self defense. The soldier can only kill when he's life is in danger, but this was not the case.
Over the yrs Nigeria soldiers and police has shown the world are unprofessional they are, so leave that matter.
With this your comment so, I am believing you were there to witness the incident first hand abi?
My return back home from NYSC is the worst decision of my life.
Everyday I feel like I don't belong to the family house anymore.
I had/have plans of getting rent-money and leaving to Abuja to go stay on my own before this whole Coronavirus issue came up. Even though I don't have the money yet, I am trusting GOD
Pls find a way to leave your comfort zone (parents house), Cus that will propel you to work hard and smart. I tolled same path.
buikem2: Many here will be a worse version of whatever they write when they become parents
Its just that the way those parents of 60s,70s,80s see things now is quite different from how we see em. They still believe in doing things the 60s, 70s, 80s way not putting in mind that the world has revolved.
vizkiz: It is not difficult to identify a bastard nowadays.
Just take a look at these kids undermining the post of a father in their lives. The system has so much brought down the role of a father. Making him look like a figure head. Praising the mother alone.
Little wonder we have so many days assigned to praise women and just a day to notice the value of a man (Father’s day). Most times the Father’s Day come and go without anyone noticing it
Same father who worked all his life to take care of his family? Same father who will risk his life day and night just to put food on the table? Same father who paid your fees from the very first day you were born till you started earning your own money? Same father who put a roof over your head and even assigned your own room? (No wonder men die early)
Only for him to be cheated again when he is to reap the fruit of his Labour. Little wonder most of you are cursed. It is because you have offended God and man by being a fool.
Just take a look at the cheap gold-digging girls we have nowadays. All they do is look for a ready made man. So after having kids for that guy, those unfortunate kids will rather take care of her than their father who has worked for money all his life?
What happened to 50:50? To hell with you simpletons.
My mum has done a whole lot for me and I’ll do anything just to make her happy but my dad (bless his soul) deserves as much love and happiness.
Even the 50:50 sef, my dad will still buy gifts for mum from that money. I understand most of you are not from stable homes sha...Una dey use una family problem judge the matter.
Am still wondering how peoples's opinion made you bitter like this...wetin consign u with who they gave the money to.
Swingate: How can you call your elders liars? The words of our fathers are words of wisdom a wise man hears them and become wiser. Those stories where made up to keep you from certain bad behaviors. For example the one about whistles in the afternoon is just to keep your noise down to allow them relax.
Lie to maintain sanity is not a lie abi? Wow, so most politicians are wise and not liars for making promise which will not be kept for us to vote em into power.
I didn't send a certification of my passport either and was offered PhD admission into the University. I will advice you to focus on other things for now especially how to secure a visa. I feel this can be sorted out when you finally get to the University.
oh wow. Though I applied due to the scholarship offered by New Zealand.
