Go and watch the Hong kong revolution and you will see that everyone cannot be at the same level but it is a requirement of everyone, rich and poor, to make sure that their leaders serve them and that they have afuture in their country.

It is even a plus to people like Sowore, a U.S citizen who has all the comfort of life, to put his own life on the line for those of you trapped in the shithole called Nigeria. Show some appreciation because if not for people like that, you all will suffer this nightmare of Nigerian Govt for the next one thousand years.
If you cant LEAD, at least be a good FOLLOWER

Actually Sowore refused to apply for US citizenship. He is just a resident. That's shows how much he value his Nigerian citizenship. I heard him say he is not a US citizen by choice.

For the fact that they take it too serious show that the political class and elites are akready scared. It is coming. They cant escaoe it. I have been scared of this time bomb waiting to explode for a long time. Back in the 1990s, seeing the number of jobless that engage in neighbourhood clashes make we wonder how Nigeria is sitting on a keg of gunpowder. That was over 20 yrs ago. Imagine their number have quadrupled. And so is the hardship.

What do you expect? Wike is a member of the political elites and would want the corrupt system that keep him in position of power usurped. The Tsunami is already on its way.

Naijafull19:
In other countries, people pay their power bills on time, don't bypass their meters or bribe DISCO officals to reconenct them, don't steal power, and their power companies are fully privatised, and charge the full price for power, not the 30% of the full price that DISCOS are forced to charge. And subsequently, their power companies have the cash to make improvements.

Their power companies are transparently run, and don't do estimated billing either.

In Nigeria, we insist on paying N2 for something that should cost N2000. Impossicant.

And in foreign countries, you only pay for power you use. No estimated billing and getting charged when have no power 24/7. In Nigeria public officials and business elites connive to rob the masses. Here I pay $50 for unlimited internet data and working phone line. Once in Nigeria, I spent N8,000 in just 2days for internet. Wetin be that. Organized robbery.

BigBashiru:
I was in a housing estate somewhere in Nigeria recently. Even within the estate someone was driving one way! Pls tell me wat u want buhari to do about this. There are things that should not be taught to human beings - things like driving against traffic or not littering the environment are common sense. A high iq person will see that going to a round about and turning is almost equidistant to the one way distance sans attendant risks. So it's safe to say the vast majority of Nigerians hv low iq bordering on being sub human! Buhari or state governors cannot control ur behavior when they are not around. Or niggaz now need law enforcement even in housing. Estates??

Hopefully you are not claiming to have higher IQ. Do you know what determine human behaviour. A combination of factors: upbringing, education, environment and societal influence, etc. Tell me what good influence Nigeria political class including the presidency have on the populace. Can Buhari engage the people he claim to be leading. I was a Buharist but things changed after the mass killing in the middle-belt. A president that choose to go to a public marriage of two public families few days after hundreds were massacred has no human feeling. Buhari is a dead beat.

If you do not know how society functions. It's from top down. The elites and political class set the pace and rules for the masses to follow but what have the Nigerian elites and political class done. They steal and oppress the same masses. So don't blame the poor man driving against flow of traffic. He is also a victim.

omohlexy:
The guy should have jejely stayed in New York where was wearing those his fancy beads and living the good life . Greed and ego is making him sleep in cell now.Mosquitoes are discussing his matter now.

Chicken heart. This is not your game. Keep quiet. Or are you Sowore? Bear your father's name. Do you how much most of us in the West wish to return home but we can't because insecurity, massive unemployment, no healthcare or good hospitals. Don't be fooled, life in the West is "bling bling". All na debt.

BenAndrew:
Things like this should have been done long before now, the only problem is we Nigerians don't want to put an end to this circle of vicious criminals who call themselves leaders.

We keep taking all the rubbish they serve us, I personally think this is a great initiative to turn this country into the right course.
.now you'll see all the wicked leaders fighting against this because they don't actually want the best for us but I'm sure their plans won't work. Let's all support our great nation and make it a better one once and for all.

Ask yourself why slavery and colonialism lasted for several centuries. It's because of saboteurs and greedy elites that sold their people for money. There is no difference to what we see now among our political elites. The way few of our own people benefited from slavery is same as what we see now. They connive with multinationals to rob people of their land and resources. And who remain the victims? The masses.

careytommy37:
Sowore cannot use my head to break coconut.

You think you are still alive? You are gone already. So what's there to lose?

otabuko:
Good luck to people that will die tomorrow. Don't revolution anything, if you no get work, stay home, abeg fellow Nigerians.

Bubu dey find way to kill us finish, make una no give am the opportunity. Because, for this one, him dey right oh! You can't revolt in a democratic state, that's felony!
Thanks

Nigeria land of the living dead.

NwaAmaikpe:




I pity the jobless ones who will follow in this protest.
You'd inhale tear gas in vain, while the conveners will get parastal appointments like Hadiza Bala Usman.

Say no to being used as a pawn by sellout moles.

Do not participate in the protest instead sit at home, go to work, visit a boyfriend, go to the cinema, watch porn in the office or just pray in church.
I support whatever decision the DSS, Police and other paramilitary takes on dumb protesters.

Think again.

Is it a coincidence that Sowore wants a revolution just after the ministerial list was released and he didn't make the cut?
Have you asked yourself why Yele Sowore of all people refused to file an election petition despite the flawed 2019 Presidential elections.

Have you wondered why this same person who congratulated Buhari after the elections saying it was a deserved free win then all of a sudden wants to protest again his government?

Abeg, our mumu don do.
Sowore you can and will never fool NwaAmaikpe.
You can't tell the world that Buhari was credibly elected by the people and still incite the same people to revolt against his government.
That is pure two-faced hypocrisy.

I will never endorse a Nigerian revolution spearheaded by an insincere New Yorker.

Paid enemy of the masses identified. One of several on this platform now.

SLAP44:
And now he sneaked into DSS cell that he may never return.

Africa and Nigeria had too many of people like you and that's why slavery and colonialism lasted for several centuries. You are one of those whose forefathers likely connived with Europeans to ferry slaves out of Africa just for peanuts. It's in the blood.

#FreeSowore



- 12 million kids out of school
- daily kidnappings
- multidimensional poverty
- police brutality
- gross unemployment
- mismanaged economy
- religious discrimination

How did you miss this?

-Fulani herdsmen killings all over the country

aaronson:
Regardless of this long list of demands, this was just a bad time to start this revolutionary movement, Not when we RELATIVELY peaceful with a stable economy. Sowore picked a wrong schedule for this movement.


Let's take a look at a recent mass protest (still on going by the way) in Hong Kong against the proposed extradition bill. That protest was quick to spiral out of control from mere protest into a revolutionary movement, this is why people are still on the streets of Hong Kong even after the suspension of the proposed Bill

Another scenario is that of France, where Macron hike the price for fuel, The protest turned to a yellow vest movement that kept occuring every weekend till the hike was reverted but the people still clamouring for Macron removal

Conclusion
Sowore could have concealed his revolutionary plans till a little uprising like fuel hike or workers strike or even End Sars protest to further take advantage of the situation turning it into his proposed revolutionary movement. Revolution just don't happen when peace and economic stability is thriving. He could be charged in court for Treason or even disturbing public peace.

Peace and economic stability? I laugh! Wait until Boko Haram and Fulani jihadist knock on your door. The tone of your comment already gave you away. Keep collecting your N30k.

The attack on Uni-Abuja is probably a reprisal attack for alleged killing of a Fulani by hoodlums suspected to be Uni-Abuja students in June 2017. See the story here: http://4itbrains.com/3879648/fulani-man-killed-bush-university

Remember someone said if a single Fulani is killed, many of the suspected killer(s) would pay for it.

thebosstrevor:
a revolutionists has a fancy car and is living large

revolutionists in Nigeria from kanu to sowore are all enjoying their lives while they shout revolution

Empty head! Ask yourself why he left his comfortable life in the USA to come and fight for people right in Nigeria. So, he does not have a right to own a car which was bought with genuine income. Have you heard that he scammed anyone, or involved in hunkering or Yahoo. Please go and borrow sense. People are been killed every day without arrest of the suspects...

thebosstrevor:
i am not defending any regime but revolution is not a solution, look at all the countries that did revolution are they peaceful, NO, the revolution brought more problems and even took the lives of many people

He wasn't calling for violent revolution. It's an attempt to get the government more serious to address the numerous problems. See how innocent people are been killed over all and the culprits are not arrested because they are Buhari kinsmen.

BigBashiru:
The only mistake Sowore made is naming it "Days of Rage"; seems from the name that he is calling for violence......

Rage means expression of anger. It does not need to be violent. Sowore is not a violent individual. Buhari played into his hands. Sowore know what he is doing. He knew he would be arrested. Remember how they intimidated TuFace. Now, he will get more popular.

thebosstrevor:
you are not shia group

Sowore and his group are all fraudsters with red caps.

che guevara was a revolutionist and never lived a comfortable life during the struggle.

All these so called Nigerian revolutionists are just hungry for Public Show, they love the circus so much..show men i call them

You offsprings to the next four generation will reap the reward of your stupidity and shallowness.

NIGERIAN ARE NOT Fools

Don't be an "olodo". What power source are you expecting. Each of these can be powered by solar power. And what monitoring post do you need? It seem you are still in the stone age.

When all these international artist are in their form/prime they will not even feature our artists but Immediately their career don dey shake, dey go carry their bad luck come Nigeria✖️❌❌❌❌

Now jus wait and see how nigerian fans go dey rush am, jus like the case of Rick Ross, Beyonce, Chris brown..... That did the same thing
Even drake applied the same thing when he saw kendrik Lamar taking over from him,

You.appear to lack self confidence and think you are not good enough in your own eyes. What a way to think.

MrBrownJay1:
ARRANT DELUDE MAMBO JAMBO GULLIBLE RUBBISH
Why don't they use these juju to fight corruption in Nigeraia and have these polithieves cough up all the money they steal....?! No wonder Africa is so backward when we still have supposedly intelligent mature people believe in this mambo jambo Harry Potter nonsense

Juju ko, mumu ni!!!!

I sorry for you. You are not asking the right question. It's why can't our politicians and public officers swear using traditional oats instead of the bible and quoran. They wont do that because they know the repercussions of not keeping their hands off the till. God who created us and know the nature of all humanity he created gave us this knowledge because he knows our way and how difficult a black man can be. But our people are throwing them down the drain or use them for diabolical things. Traditional knowledge are not evil on their own, it is peoole that use them for evil rather than good. A relative was recently healed through traditional means after over 10yrs going from pillar to post, from hospitals to mosque and to church with no result. We have to cherish the traditional knowledge we have and use them for goodness of our society.

Simplyleo:
To me, this is a classical case of cure worse than the ailment. The little girl being a child may be thrilled by this "palliative", but in actual sense, it is no where close to the solution of her daily energy-sapping distant trekking.

The energy expended in riding that bicycle is almost double the energy required to trek.

However, may God reward her benefactor for making such attempt, and thanks to social media for bringing up her plight to the public. We pray she eventually get the appropriate assistance.

Also, such a long walk on the lonely path is not safe for a girl of her age, human ritualists are on the lookout.

Would you rather walk for 2km for let us say 2hrs or bike the same distance for just 30 min. If you consider the time difference I believe less energy will be expended by biking because she will get to school faster than if she walk.

hakeemhakeem:
make u na call him to order now when police carry am put for cage like bird we go say govt bad.watin him done do to better him small community? we can develop this nation with riots or protest. let us group ourselves into section like health,education and co runs it with our little capital to provides quality services to ourselves.we can create our own empires forget what govt can do for us.look at JP Morgan, ford ,facebook, dangote.femi,elumelu and other who create what we enjoy today riots no go solve our problems. sowore want use una hustle and build his empire ooo I talk my own

Go borrow sense. Mixing Ford, JP Morgan and Facebook with Dangote and Elumelu doesn't make sense. I have been around different part of the US. Even Houston, Texas here alone I am always amazed at level of infrastructural development. These people have invested so much into their country. If you see roads, you go.tire. Power is 24/7, if it blinks, may be because of storm. Point to one US senator that have acquired so much to the point of having 5 Lamborghini or other luxury cars in his/her garage, and an extra parked in the living room. One of your former minister's jewelry collection alone was valued at $40 million. So, that's part of the money they are supposed to.use to build roads, schools, and hospital.
And the worst part is each thief has bands of natives around him or her. Abi, see how Ibori was welcomed by the same people he stole from. Nigeria is supposed to have over 100 Dangote or Elumelu if the system works at just 10% of what country like US has. Power alone available for 24/7 will turn this country around massively.

Richdad50:


One common attitude of struggling and hopeful young men is doubt and disbelief. Don't doubt everyone or everything you hear especially if they have no direct implications on you. When you hear such, let it reinforce your believe in hope. Let it remind you of the possibilities of God's transformations. Let it sink in that a contact with one helper can end decades of toiling.

The mind is a powerful force of magnetic field. It attracts and repels based on the conditions and polarity of the mindfield. Dont use memes, gifs, or jokes to cage your present status or repel the miraculous.

Which kind money I get if my money only reflects on me only....


Just look at those around him and look at him

What does that say about him? Why are you all surprised. Remember, Dino is one of the enemies of the masses. They are wicked souls. Upon all the cars and luxuries, and money stolen, just look at the people around him. These are his blood. Someone that does reflect on his own blood and flesh want to help Nigerian people... who is fooling who?

Melaye Snr, better tell your son that it is cursed money he is spending. While he acquire multiple luxurious vehicles and live in a mansion without producing anything aside "Ajekun iya" song, people that the money belong to are dieing daily due activities of Dino and his colleagues.

Those kids... umm, God be with them.

Oh Africa! My people suffer for lack of knowledge. Even the narratives in the bible is enough to conclude there was never a "white" Jesus but only that invented by the Catholic church and hollywood.

rentAcock:
They should investigate that river very well. How is it that 3 people drowned on the same day? The author states that people have been warned from entering the cold water, but I thought its summer in the UK. If this had happened at river Niger some will say Mami water is to blame.

Nonetheless, RIP to the deceased.

It does not matter if its summer. The water could be around 5 degree celsius in summer.

rentAcock:
I was told Northeners are comfortable making less than N5,000 a month and they have no atom of greed in their bones. They said just give them enough money for tea, they don't eat much and live very frugally. I guess they were wrong after all.

I guess Abacha is Igbo and Babangida is from Ogun State. Its all deception. They and their brothers and sisters from the south have been stealing from the country since 1960.

I tire for these people o. Ninety-nine percent of Americans would not be able to locate Nigeria on a map. Here someone dropped his own load to help another man carry his.
