chides CDS over comments

The National Association of Seadogs (Pyrates Confraternity) has demanded an apology from the Federal Government over the Lekki tollgate massacre following the revelations from the leaked report of the Lagos State Judicial Panel of Inquiry on Restitution for Victims of Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) Related Abuses and other matters.

The organisation particularly asked President Muhammadu Buhari to take responsibility for the lies dished out by the Federal Government in an attempt to bury the truth.


NAS in a statement by the NAS Capoon, Mr Abiola Owoaje titled “Lekki Tollgate Massacre: Truth Unmasked“ said President Buhari should be sober enough to admit that he failed as Commander-in- Chief of the armed forces.

“For consistently lying about the events of the Lekki tollgate shooting, the Federal Government must tender an unreserved apology to Nigerians. President Muhammadu Buhari should be sober enough to admit that as the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces, his administration failed innocent young Nigerians when they were mowed down by bullets bought with taxpayers’ money at the Lekki tollgate on that Black October, and other killings across the state during the protest. He should accept responsibility and ensure adequate compensation is paid to all the victims identified. This is the only way for true reconciliation and restitution to begin. And more importantly the turning point to put an end to the appalling actions and impunity of Nigeria’s security agencies against the citizens,” he said.

 Owoaje who called for the prosecution of the military and Police personnel that took part in the shooting, berated the Chief of Defence Staff, General Lucky Irabor for attempting to down play the ignoble role of the Nigerian Army in the atrocious event.



“Irabor’s statement against thebackdrop of the panel’s report is saddening, highly provocative and insensitive.  He should be bothered that under his watch, men of the Nigerian Army opened fire on a peaceful assembly of Nigerian youths and thereafter disgracefully attempted to cover-up,” he said.

 NAS commended the judicial panel “for its uncompromising stance on the side of justice to uncover the truth for prosperity without fear or favour” and enjoined Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu to allow the Attorney-General of Lagos State; Mr Moyosore Onigbanjo (SAN) led four-man committee the required independence to produce a White Paper that would reflect the panel’s recommendations.



While calling for the prosecution of the management of Lekki Concession Company (LCC) over its indictment,  Owoaje urged President Buhari led administration to seize the opportunity presented by the  panel report to resolve all issues that led to the #EndSARS protests

“Like we pointed out in our earlier press statements, the #EndSARS protests represent a watershed socio-political event in the country which the government would ignore at its own peril. The government must take adequate steps to resolve all outstanding issues that triggered the protests. The best way to achieve this is for the National Economic Council (NEC) to ensure reports from other states are made public and those recommended for prosecution are made to have their day in Court.



“We have noted repeatedly that President Buhari’s administration, by its actions and inactions, is notoriously known to be in bed with impunity. The Justice Okuwobi’s Panel report presents it with another opportunity to redeem itself.”

Popular Nothern activist, Aisha Yesufu has slammed members of the Lagos State House of Assembly over their alleged indifferent attitude to the End SARS issues.

According to Yesufu, the Lagos assembly members are instead pledging allegiance to Bola Tinubu, the national leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC.

She said that the lawmakers have remained mute even after the Lagos State Panel of Investigation recently published a report about the Lekki Toll Gate incident.


Recall that the panel had in its findings revealed that police and soldiers of the Nigerian Army intentionally killed and maimed unarmed youths protesting the extrajudicial killings by police operatives.

Aisha, who was at the forefront of the EndSARS protest in October 2020, tweeted, “The thing that hurt me more than the killings that occured at Lekki Toll Gate was how members of Lagos State House of Assembly threw #EndSars protesters under the bus and were practically swearing allegiance to Tinubu.

“The citizens didn’t matter nor protesters! All they cared about was Tinubu.”

Louder my dear....slaves that loves their chains.

We celebrate everything in Nigeria, we celebrate flyover, underpass,bypass, pedestrian cross,sidewalk etc little wonder our leaders treat us the way they do.

How did ISWAP fighters know that a reinforcement is coming and ambushed them,this is simply the work of Boko haram moles in Nigeria Army.
After many years of selfless service, a general goes down to this ragtag ISWAP. RIP to the dead!

Our brothers from the other side who thinks that Peter Obi is in competition with their demigod for presidency and finds delight in ridiculing one of the best minds in Nigerian politics and a guru in meticulous economics through brown envelop journalism,should please desist from it.
There is no relationship between light and darkness.
Peter Obi that I know will always do the right thing at the right time,we move on.
Once more congrats to Soludo!!!!

RIP sir,the nation you once served with all dedication has just failed you,same way it has failed the masses!!!

This govt of APC in plateau st is so shameless, eight members impeached the people's speaker in a 24 member house,just because the speaker had the odacity to tell the truth to the federal govt puppet governor in Plateau st.
Governor Lalong is disaster waiting to happen,he is the worst governor of all times.

Nigeria and 'Ponzi scheme'are inseparable... Fools die!!!!!

You will cry tears next week.

Congratulations to Andy Ubah..

Meanwhile No Election In Igbo Land..

Isn't it a shame to you that while you are saying no election in Anambra,you are equally congratulating Andy Uba. So its no longer hidden that APC can never produce a peoples candidate who win elections without outright rigging....how did we as a nation get to this point where people no longer apply decorum in actions and words, little wonder our economy is in complete shambles. A nation whose leaders are touts and miscreants, my heart bleeds for this nation. Indeed 'there was a country'!

South-East comes to mind,where the police are now seen as a sworn enemy by UGM...the police needs to do a lot to clean up there already tarnished image,being unnecessarily brutal to those whom you are meant to protect is total bad for your image.

If this is true then one can rightly say that Fulani killer herdsmen has completely taken over the forests in south west. If they can coordinate such an audacious attack on a maximum prison in Oyo,it implies that they have enough sleeper cells in South West and are only waiting for the evil day to continue there conquest.

When you think you ve heard the worst from FG,they come out with a more ridiculous assertion that makes this nation look like a circus of clowns.
From the federal govt submission, it is then right for everyone to believe that Nnamdi Kanu is one 'super power',who can sit in far away London and order the burning down of the nation.
Probably IPOB ESN also did the lekki gate massacre.
Even in the north buildings where burnt down and ware houses looted during EndSARS,it then implies that Kanu's reach could also have extended to even Northern Nigeria.Northern governors chairman Mr Lalong of plateau st said the state lost more than 10billion naira during the saga,while billions worth of goods where looted in Bauchi,Sokoto,Taraba,Adamawa,Kaduna et al.

This 'kanuphobia',within the govt circle is becoming very comic,I hope he won't also be accused of having instigated the 2020 coup d'etat in Mali or the most resent coup attempt in Guinea.

...and yet the Attorney general of the federation opened his mouth to suggest that they may place a state emergency in Anambra state while his backyard is on fire and in a complete state of war.
Nigeria i salute thee...some of our so called leaders comments are only good for comic relief.

Aufbauh:
Nigeria as a country is equally more prepared, equipped and more deadly than the 1967 cus they've stockpiling arms and ammunitions since then.
In contrast there's a restrictions for acquisition of military hardwares and ammunitions if you're not a recognized sovereign state. So even with money individuals or rebel groups are limited.

Nobody prays for war,'war is one thing you cannot guarantee success, some times the strongest becomes the weakest and the weakest becomes the strongest',-anonymous.
Meanwhile you don't sound intelligent at all,while reasonable minds are trying to see how Nigeria can get over this trying period,you are busy throwing your weight around online.
This same nation that has not been able to conquer rag tag Boko haram and so called bandits and you are still asking for another arm struggle.Our economy has since gone down the drain partly because of insecurity and low life like you whom I doubt if you have any meaningful source of income is bragging and celebrating what seems to me as Nigerian incompetency.

One of the hardest things to do on earth,is to prove that Buhari does not have attachment to these bandits,as the days passes by its becoming more difficult for any reasonable mind to say our president has been fair to all....its just a pity we find ourselves with such leaders.

'No one can stop an idea(logy)whose time has come,is either you change by it or the wind of change will carry you into irrelevancy'_anonymous!
My big shout out to Chiwetalagu,long you shall live!!!!

PapaGfad:
Please, I would really appreciate if anyone can connect me with the administration office of Bukavu Barracks in Kano. This is very urgent in other to comfirm if a military officer by the name Ahmad Bello is safe and in good hands.

He was purposed to travel from Kano to Ibadan having collected his pass on Tuesday morning to travel on Wednesday and return on Monday. All efforts to reach him since 3am
on Thursday morning has been abortive as his number is switched of since then till now.

I am particularly worried because of the state of insecurity in the country and particularly around that area.

Anyone who can help to ensure that his movement and whereabouts is fully ascertained would be warmly welcomed.

Thank you.

Reach out to the nearest barrack in your state,make your case to the military authorities there,they know how to reach the administrators of 'Bukavu barracks'...this will be helpful!

Vinstel:
Of course we know you didn't break any law. Children of perdition are desperate to tarnish your image because they know that the corrupt mannequin that they are projecting for 2023 is smelling of corruption from head to toe so they are desperate to paint men of integrity bad so they can say, look, no one is good in this country and use that as a justification to continue to support their corrupt mannequin.

Apt...we know those who are working day and night just to give 'a dog a bad name in order to hang it',these people are so shameless and can take to the gutters on the stage of cheap politics.

So Nigerian Army has so degenerated to the point of arresting a man because of the colours of his cloth...yet one sheik Gumi eats and dines with bandits that has maimed hundreds of Nigerians,hailed and adored some where in Northern Nigeria. indeed 'there was a country'.

Which of the homes?London home?Lagos home?

Privileged terrorist group...I rest my case!!!

I have always had this strong conviction that APC is a clandestine organization and it's activities are always covered in secrecy....reason Nigeria is in a grave mess.

It is so unfortunate,'when the came for minorities,I said nothing because I'm not a minority,when they came for Igbo's, I said nothing because I'm not an Igbo.When they came for Yorubas ,I said nothing because I'm not a yourba.When they came for Hausa's I said nothing because I'm not Hausa. Now they came for me,nobody is left to speak on my behalf'! RIP.

The level of injustice going on in this government is alarming,whenever,wherever and however this Islamist terrorists living in and around Bauchi road,Ankwan Rogo and environs i.e. the community where UJ is located,feels there is a need to kill,they pounce on innocent students to satisfy their unquenchable thirst for blood.
The government pretends as if nothing has happened,until this terrorist residing around the university community are rooted out,students will remain an object of game for them.The blood of the innocent is crying for justice in Nigeria,I wonder why the southern media has opted to under report the incessant killings of our beloved students,anyway Brown envelope and intimidation has gagged our one's promising media.
Moreover the land where this terrorists reside belongs to the university but for politics,the government kept mute.
Nigeria is a disaster waiting to happen,my humble submission.

This same people causing problems all over Nigeria...they keep arming their people just to destabilise Plateau state,in their insatiable quest for land grabbing.

By the time Nigeria realises the level of damage this bandits has done to this country only then will they government take a decisive action.
These bandits are often treated with kid gloves,they are privilege terrorist group and it seems they are allowed to operate with impunity for selfish reasons.
When they want to go on vacation,they come out as repentant bandits or boko haram members and they are giving a VIP treatment,it's ok...we are watching a tragedy on the stage,let the drama continue!

So funny that you guys believed those scammers at Nirsal Mfb,why didn't they review the sum downwards and disburse to this Nigerians who have waited for about a year for this nonsense,investing there time and scarce resources to get to this stage,only for them to be disappointed...little wonder why many youths are jumping into Yahoo business in Nigeria.
A scam of a nation without human consideration.

Which Lalong...the same governor that can not pinpoint any project he started and completed in 6yrs,a man that can't guarantee the safety of life and properties of its indigenes, a lackey to the core and a sale out.
Lalong as a man,is only good for comic relief!

If you obey the law of money,money will obey you!
