If these was how her jubril father has been gushing over Nigeria, Ghana currency (cedis) for never big pass Naira by now...

Awon oniranu

False. The Ghanaian cedis is not bigger than the naira. Have you forgotten that in 2007, Ghana redenominated their currency by making 1000 cedis equal to 1 cedi. Nigeria could have easily done the same but that is a ridiculous policy with no real benefit. The cedis has lost 70% of its value since then.

Toxic feminism is what Kiki and her likes practice. They are giving a bad name to what true feminism stands for. They confuse misandry with feminism.

I thought KANO owns that accolades in North?

Not anymore. Kaduna has surpassed Kano as at 2019. The target for Kaduna in 2021 is 60 billion naira. Don't mess with El'Rufai.

Beautiful indeed.

Abuja enjoys one thing today, which Lagos was denied of; Proper urban planning.
( And relatively inexhaustive space.)

Plus it doesn't have the weight of being the commercial centre of the country like Lagos.

You can't talk about Abuja's proper planning without giving credits to Nasir El'Rufai. The man is about replicating the same in Kaduna. He has already made Kaduna the state with the highest IGR in the North and highest investment destination in Nigeria as at last year.

You can hate the man but you can't fault his administrative acumen.

Stop jumping into threads?

Are all the killed farmers Rice farmer's owners?

Land is not a problem in the North. If you are not a lazy person, there is always a large expanse of land available for you to cultivate in the North. Those people killed were commercial rice farmers and their farm workers harvesting rice in their fields. Which is why analysts say there may be an economic warfare in place with terrorists aiming to starve Nigeria going by recent attacks on farmers.

The problem in the North is not Police brutality, if anything, the North is severely underpoliced due to the large expanse of the land. This why the North could not relate to EndSars. The Police are not their enemies, they need more of them.

The North has been plagued by Boko haram for over a decade now and although much still needs to be done, the Northeast has seen a little bit of respite. A time once was when bombs were going off on daily basis in public spaces killing scores of people all over the North, even in Abuja. The UN building, churches, mosques, markets, bus parks and even the Police Hq were not spared. Children were searched on daily basis before being admitted into their classes. Nowadays, the major casualties are mostly soldiers battling the terrorists in the deep fields until this recent incident.

However, a new ugly trend is rearing its head in the Northwest, the emergence of bandits. Some people believe these are Boko haram terrorists displaced from Sambisa and other Northeastern areas who have found a profitable business in kidnapping for ransom. There is urgent need for a change in tactics to arrest these new realities.

I have always known from the onset that it’s all a charade

No it isn't. The panel was not set up for the Lekki incident, mind you. It was set up to address cases of genuine victims of Police brutality and so far, over 70 petitions have been received. Curiously, not even one of these petitions are from a family or victim of Lekki Toll Gate. We were all sold a dummy.

The aftermath of the whole EndSars shenanigans and the obvious attacks on Tinubu and his establishments has succeeded in making a lot of Northerners sympathetic to him. Previously, the average Northerner couldn't care less about Tinubu but this isn't the case anymore. All things being equal and barring any unforeseen circumstances, the North will support a Tinubu presidency.

Where is the massacre?

Agbegbaorogboye:
Ok.. But what about her reply which is actually true that the protests at Lekki were never violent? Those area boys are a product of our political system and are usually prime targets of police for extortion. It is true that there was no violence at Lekki despite the presence of police personnel as at 19th Oct 2020 not true?

Thank you. The whole essence of this back and forth was to prove to you that the area boys at the Lekki toll gate were piling up stones and bottles. So when the Army claimed under oath that were pelted, it is not out of place to believe them. I'm glad I have been able to convince you on that. The claim that the CCTV camera was switched off has also been disproved. The tribunal played the video for the whole world yesterday. There was no massacre. You can watch it on Premium Time's facebook live page below. Can a single witness or victim's family on the protesters side please show up at the panel already? It seems the government has won this round.

Like I said, the handle you're accusing is Taiymei while this one seems to reference a certain imoteda. They are different handles I hope you understand

I now understand. Because I have a little time on my hands, I tried to dig around for the tweet and guess what? She has also deleted the tweet! See link to the now deleted tweet and screenshot of someone referencing the tweet and her reply. Ask yourself, why are they all deleting tweets if they have nothing to hide? Thank God for screenshots.

P.S: A lot of people with the bloodstained Nigerian flag are now changing their DP having realized that they were sold a dummy.

She's not mentioned on that particular link you posted. Just some WahalaBabe rambling about someone she claimed instituted chaos and shooting at lekki. How does this prove the tweet is genuine?

Why are we even going back and forth on this? It's not that deep. The tweet was deleted 15 hours ago. You can't find it anymore. See the link to the now deleted tweet below.

First of all, how are we sure your so-called telegram page is legit endsars and again how are we sure that dude is really a protester or just acting up to create a certain impression

Thank you again for your question. That was a telegram group for EndSars in Abuja. Click the below link for video messages from the group where they were plotting how to cover up the death of a pregnant woman that lost her life when they blocked the airport road in Abuja. I have no doubt that these are where most of the fake news and images were fabricated. It was an organized coup.

I've checked that handle. 1st of that's not the dp on it and second there's no such tweet on her timeline

Very good. The fact that you made efforts to cross-check and did not resort to insults is commendable. She has deleted that particular comment and made some restrictions on her account. I hear she's one of those who got contracts to supply food during the protests. It won't be the first time as EndSars activists like Fkabudu and Rinu have been caught deleting implicating tweets. So much for people advocating for accountability.

The below tweet proves that she deleted that particular post and only this morning. Click on the link and read through the comments. Someone had earlier quoted the exact tweet but thank God for screenshots.

The government must have hired a lot of you guys to twist the narrative to suit it's agenda. This is not the first public protest in Nigeria and not even the first violent one. But this is the first time the army has been brought in with the aim of killing protesters. Even during the more than one month protest (sometimes violent) in the aftermath of the June 12 election, Abacha as bad as he was never deployed the army to kill protesters.

For your information army do not stock blank bullets as they have no use of them. Black bullets are only used by police to quell riots. Besides, the bullets casings found by DJ Switch, CNN and others are not casings from blank bullets.

A Major got injured during a riot? You mean someone up to the rank of a major was deployed to quell a civilian protest?

Anyone arguing with you paid hacks is wasting his or her time, it's like arguing with Lai Mohammed or Kayleigh McEnany.

Lol. You know nothing about the Army. The Army do not stock blank bullets? What then do they use for trainings? Military parades? Gun salutes? Please do not confuse blank bullets with rubber bullets.

Why do you all assume that anyone who refuses to buy your narratives and chooses to apply rational thought is automatically on government payroll? The government must really have a lot of people on it's payroll.

The Army were deployed all round Lagos following the curfew and not just to Lekki. Are we supposed to believe that the same Army who didn't shoot at a single hoodlum caught looting and burning will now open fire at protesters at the toll gate? Ask yourself, what is the motive for that?

Funny enough, the first sources of bullet shells we saw did not come from government sources nor the Army, it came from the protesters and their enablers and they were clearly blanks! Again, check the dates and time.

maiquel:
This doesn't prove anything... my guy is in Abuja and posted a gun, said he was ready for a fight... the guy cannot even hold a bone talk less of a gun... all na cruise.
The mouth ended in the group chat.

It does prove something. It proves that some of the protesters were "armed" contrary to what they will have us believe. Is your guy licensed to carry? Possession of firearms is an offense, in case you don't know. You can only speak for your guy and his ability to follow through with his threats. This thread is about someone at the toll gate who was clearly armed.

wirinet:
So protests with stones and bottles should be met with live army bullets? The way some of your reason is below animals.

OK. Provide proof that any soldier at the Lekki toll was injured with bottle or stone to elicit a retaliation with military bullets.

Did you look at the post I replied to? The Army had consistently maintained that protesters hauled stones at them, you are the ones who kept saying it was a lie. I only provided proof that protesters had stones and bottles in their possession.

When you choose to haul stones at armed soldiers, you should be prepared for however they choose to respond. In anycase, the Army had said under oath that they responded with blank bullets showing great restraint. Why hasn't a single protester at the Lekki Toll Gate shown up at the tribunal? Setting up a Judicial panel is one of the 5for5 demands.

As for who got injured, go listen to yesterday's testimony of the Army at the Judicial panel. He specifically named a Major who got injured from the attacks on that night. Do make sure you watch the testimony yourself, do not rely on sensational headlines from media houses looking for clickbaits.

tollyboy5:
That's a dummy gun. There are a lot of dummy gun looking that way.

But you don't have sense. Thats the issue

This is a Telegram group of the EndSars protesters. You can clearly see a protester displaying a gun or is this also a toy? No point denying that some of the people disguising as protesters were armed on that night, there are videos to corroborate this. In fact, the bullet wounds sustained by some people on that night, are consistent with pellets from a low calibre firearm, probably victims of friendly fire. This explains why most of them were discharged in days. Gunshot wounds from an AK47 which is the standard carry of the Nigerian Army, will be much more devastating at such close range. (Think entry and exit holes, think shattered bones and tissues, think blood soaked floors, think multiple deaths from one shot, etc.)

sapientia:
Even the army under oath at the panel said stones were thrown at them..

Which was easily dismantled as false

So..

OP is doing a poor work

The Army did not lie. The so-called peaceful protesters had stones and bottles with them as confirmed by this post below. Take note of the date, 19-10-2020, a day before the Lekki incident. Even the attention of the ringleaders of the protest were called to it.

valentineuwakwe:
what about unreported cases of massacres of southeastern Nigerians in Jos (1943), independence motion crisis/Araba secession in kano and kaduna in 1958, 1966 counter coup killings etc ....


I do not subscribe to violence but we should stop reporting what will incite crisis and violence at all times.if the oyigbo massacres were not reported, then it's to prevent retaliatory attacks and escalation....1966 is far too different from 2020!

Make no mistake, the reason why Nigeria did not descend into full blown civil war during this supposed EndSars protest is because of the immense restraint shown by the North. It appears they were wise enough to know that the so-called protest was a coup attempt by fifth columnists against Buhari and they weren't ready to jeopardize his presidency. The targeted attacks on Northerners in the East is well documented and Northerners are not oblivious of the fact. The tribalism in Nigeria is a ticking time bomb.

whela:
The day we make a law to disallow cross carpeting in this country , just then our politics changes. In America is just like religion once you're a Muslim or Christian you remain so till death. Except for very free percentage who changes. In Nigeria every 4 years this politician would definitely change party....

Posterity would Judge them all someday.

False. Donald Trump was a registered Democrat before cross-carpeting to the Republican party. Infact, his son and daughter couldn't vote for their father in 2016 because they weren't eligible to vote Republican, being registered Democrats.

CodeTemplar:
If true then this is a confirmation that the army are partisan entity. So they profile people and businesses by tribe? No wonder an Hausa man was behind the massacre at lekki.

Half baked journalism on display. I would advise you get the full video of the Army's testimony at the panel to understand the context in which he made this comment. He was referencing that audio by Nnamdi Kanu wherein he instructed his followers to burn down Tinubu's properties.

Passion2009:
Another Zombie spotted. Moe is not the leader of the protest - she only offered legal services and as at the time when she tweeted about Atiku's team, Atiku was still with APC and Buhari then.

Okay, how about the leader that has been busted to be a morbid Tinubu hater? Clearly, the EndSars key players were not as non-partisan as they would have us all believe. Virtually all of them have been found to be either pro-Atiku or anti-Tinubu. Little wonder why they quickly changed from EndSars to EndBadGovernance, thereby politicizing the protest.

fowlyansh181:
Anyone notice it’s like these guys are paid now to promote northern Nigeria as an ideal place to serve

Forget the stereotypes on social media, the North is a cool place to serve. A great majority of Southern corp members who serve in the North prefer to settle down in the North. I would advise every southerner to serve in the north and vice versa. If not for anything, for the change in orientation and perspectives.

soulpeppersoup:
Protest is dead in Nigeria forever unless we defend our own.

Everyone who stand against this government from the Igbo race is an IPOB member.

If every Igbo is an IPOB, which Igbo will join the Yoruba in any course again? This is the greatest divide and rule that is about to hit this country. If it happens, it will take a long time to address.

What in your opinion makes Dj Switch an IPOB besides the fact that she is an Igbo lady?

OP, this is not a tribalistic comment but kindly explain why she had to give her testimony at the Canadian parliament under the Biafrans in Canada Community Association? I'll wait.

10mobile:
This #EndSARS protest is beginning to spiral out of control. Joblessness is the main thing fueling it now. It's only those who don't have jobs that are still forceful about it. In other words, criminal elements are beginning to hijack it. The law-abiding citizens are beginning to think about their businesses/jobs.

You all heard how some people broke into a correctional facility in Edo State and freed prisoners. Soon, the criminal elements (who would be more than happy to see everywhere up in flames) would start breaking into shops and homes to steal and kill or to rob on the streets, using the lacuna left by police absence. Some ex-SARS operatives (who must be lacking money now that they're disbanded) will regroup and begin to rob. THEN, THE GOVERNMENT WILL SEE REASONS TO USE FORCE ON THE PROTESTERS AND WILL BE JUSTIFIED BY THE WORLD. This way, the youths would have lost all the gains of the protest.

WHAT TO DO?
I suggest that YOU back out of the protest for now. The Nigerian youths have made their presence felt and their voices heard. A wise performer leaves the stage when the ovation is high. Let's not allow bad eggs to spoil our achievements so that we can successfully build on this in subsequent months and years. Let's not give the Devil (that is, FG) a foothold against us (cf. Eph. 4:27).

In the end, OP was right. When you are blessed with intelligence, your analysis will look like prophecies.

Moral Lesson: Never follow the mob, they are almost always wrong. They kept saying they had no leaders, it was a shameless way to avoid personal responsibility. Individuals rarely accept their mistakes, groups never do.

NGpatriot:
It really doesn't matter where she goes to testify, she's still lying, she's still spewing the same baseless, tactless, proof less and uncorroborated tales, even all the rubbish she narrated to before the Canadian parliament was the same rubbish without proof, Canadians are not mumu, they just listened to her tales and until her story is corroborated and credible facts are tendered, she's just spinning lies and wasting everybody's time.


Out of hundreds of protesters at the toll gate, she's the only eyewitness to killings, dead bodies, army driving off with bodies?

This rubbish is very laughable, it's beyond ridiculous.

Don't worry yourself. The Canadian Embassy just put out a statement that subtly disowns DJ Switch and her fellow Asylum hustlers. They are not foolish.

10mobile:
Everybody seems to think it's a normal thing. So, please, if this question sounds foolish, I am sorry. But I still want to know because elders say that "those who ask questions don't miss their ways".

Why exactly is the Government seizing passports and freezing the accounts of #EndSARS participants and leaders even when the President and the governors have apparently been suing for peace? I've just read a piece of news that says that arrested #EndSARS protesters are to be bailed with the sum of N50,000 each.

Again, I'm sorry if I sound stupid. But I have to admit that I am utterly confused here. Are they being arrested for what? If it was said that people caught capitalizing on the protests to commit crimes were being penalized, I would have understood it. But to punish people just for leading or participating in the protests makes me want to ask, "what crime does a protest consist in?"

EndSars derailed very quickly when they refused to engage the government despite a lot of concessions. That was the first red flag that it has become a fifth column operation. They also have a telegram group where you can clearly see some of them armed and threatening violence. They also covered their crimes and plotted how to clamp down on dissenting voices in the social media space in a herd-like manner. They claimed the protest was organic and had no leaders but that was a lie, it was a carefully organized coup attempt. A lot of youths were fooled though.

Follow this Twitter link for images and voicenotes from the telegram group.

By the way each Nigerian is owning China 150k, right now they've borrowed another useless drone

America is indebted to the tune of over 20 trillion dollars and China is her biggest creditor. Calculate how much each American owes. They are even at the verge of borrowing another 2 trillion dollars or risk Americans queing up for food and losing their mortgages. Some of you just seek flimsy excuses to deride your country.
