Sometimes we let our emotions take over our reasoning. CNN was right. There was a curfew yet we turned up for protests.
And whoever dispersed protesters with live ammunition should equally have his head examined. What happened to water cannons, rubber bullets and teargas?

How many rubber bullets and water cannons do Nigerian police have? These are imported products....

maasoap:
By looting and stealing businesses, you are not setting anyone free, instead you are sending people backwards. Why would you even think thieves and anarchists are the ones I need to set me "free"? You guys are delusional

Thanks for being a rational thinker....

Rebuke:
Smh. They cannot escape this one. Too many evidence to nail them.


Look guys, the tears today, the pains today they are all because of the love for this country.....a lot of things are not reported here and I am very disappointed.


Nairaland, I don't know what is happening but if we ever need yhu, now is the time.

Show us yhu are with us and not against us......



For those who hide behind th keyboard typing rubbish, yhu all know nothing.


This protest has been peaceful until the paid hudlums showed up. People went out to fight for the right of the youths not with the intention of violence whatsoever but because the wicked people yhu call leaders wanted to have something to nail the peaceful protesters, they started what yhu see as violence during the protests.



An ambulance coming to rescue the injured at tollgate was turned back by the army despite every explanation.

They are still denying right?

Now yhu all have seen how wicked aND mischievous these uniform men are.

Black on black wickedness - this is why some dislike negros

Samsimple:
I can't stop crying for the fallen youths. These were people fighting for their unborn children

Nigerians are too sentimental - too emotional - the fall was unnecessary what does protesting today achieve that protesting tomorrow won't achieve.

Negros stop letting emotions becloud your judgement.

All the evidence points towards an uncomfortable truth that the negros may be cursed.... for all their countries are in anarchy....

Nigerian courts do not have jurisdiction over non residenrs

NeoWanZaeed:
this isn't about blacks or white.

this is about education and exposure.

that's exactly what this country needs.

people of such calibre would sure do well

in just a few days of protests they hv converted protest into party and beauty pageant.

NeoWanZaeed:
9ja is not worth suffering for.


nothing is going to change anything in this era of old men

nothing is going to change if nigeria is being run by blacks not because of the race but because their culture lacks seriousness and discipline and glorifies vanity (hushpuppi).

for nigeria to change for the better china or israel should be made the new colonial masters asap

Africans generally, especially Nigerians behave like zombies. It's just in our DNA �. All it takes is just for 1 person to lead an action and the rest will follow without asking questions. In as much as I think the edo prison break is an insider job, we all saw protesters getting overjoyed that prisoners are escaping, some of the escapees are murderers, robbers, kidnappers oh. Not even thinking about the implications. Tomorrow those escapees will still join the protest and go to commit more crimes, probably try to to to a police station and free more criminals.

As much as the protest started as a peaceful protest, it only takes 1 or 2 people from the protesters to turn violent like attack a police post, the rest will follow. This is a country where if 1 person in a market shouts ole ole on anyone (even when he's not sure he's the thief), before u know it another person would give him a dirty slap and before he can try to explain himself a mob would already be on him beating him up without asking what he did. And before I can say jack he's already set ablaze. Now ask any of the attackers what he did they will tell u he's a thief. What did he steal? They will say they don't know. That's how daft many people in this country are. And this is why this protest can easily turn into violence because our mentality is just weak.

Another example is doing beauty pageant at a protest or converting a protests to a display ground for guys to display flashy cars etc to girls. Blacks have low iq - it's not racism there are scientific facts to support it.

Abacha and politicians that loot don't they know they will die one day? It's low iq.

Felix180:
10 Million daily, what have they been doing with the revenue generated? Daylight robbery.

With that kind of revenue there should be helicopter patrol, street lights that always work, highway patrol security ppl that use bikes to enforce no one way; this group should be different from lasma

BennyDGreat:
Everyday more people will join until it becomes a protest of millions. You can't be saying u will form committee and think people will believe you.

Take actions. Let the people see what you are doing

exactly. "committee" is the easy way out! the commitee will form a sub-committee and the sub commitee will form a panel and the panel will vote..... then we argue over the votes - just wasting time....

ovie8200:
The man can't address anything. An insame society, the leader will come out everyday to address the people and the nation. Bubu is a liabilty to Nigeria. The have nothing upstairs.

The President loves broadcasts but then again it's a more secure way for him to speak to the masses

CheGuevara102:
The youths have spoken and there's nothing you or anyone can do about it. It seems you can't see the handwritten on the wall. The youths have long being pushed to the wall and now there's no other option left for them than to take what belongs to them. Revolution is right here by the corner, he who has ears let him hear.

Theres hunger in the land....any small thing N10,000 in the market.....

Macsjebs:
Hmmm, well, he would come 2023 since he was democratically elected! Just my opinion, I stand to be corrected
Have you seen my signature today?, if yes, thanks, God Bless you
If no, Why haven't you?

Buhari has refused to sign electronic voting into law suggesting the office if the president dies not regard all the slain during the last presidential elections

The President has done well in other areas such as Agriculture and should continue to be given the respect and dignity of His office

EmekaBlue:
just doing their work..making things peaceful no b like say dem care the ordeal

Why cant naija police do same??

Baawaa:
African should learn from this,Egypt for that matter arresting protesters, Egypt that is land of bondage.Thanks to Canadian Government

Anything black.... Nigeria, Egypt same result....

ApostleAnarchy:
I love the respect and treatment being given to dead protesters. In a country where we've been dying like fowls without government showing any form of official memorials to their names or preventing further unnatural deaths whatsoever.
I think I prefer dying while protesting than dying of hunger or dying of bad road etc silently.
I have found an honourable way to die
#revolution _now!

The roads in Nigeria are not bad the drivers are reckless..... when you have good roads it becomes worse....

Even Canada and USA have bad roads and snow roads but drivers drive according to road conditions meaning if there's snow you slow down..... but in Nigeria even with potholes - people are still doing 120km hr on roads filled with potholes and say it's bad roads. Abuja with great roads records among the highest accident rates in the country....

Black on black brutality is so shameful. Even in black Africa blacks are still brutalized by fellow blacks because blacks love power - how come there is no white on white police brutality in UK?? because most blacks are ego driven and power drunk. "DO you know who I am"?

Omoluabi16:
This was my exact sentiment. We play too much here.I see obscene hashtags and yeye pictures. Who even remembers that a certain Isiaq was killed on Monday?? Everybody just going about meeting a boy or girl at the protests. Which one be soro soke or whatever when we can talk about Jumbo salaries??

Kudos to every single person who has come out. Still we can do MUCH better. This is serious business, might never come this close again.

I agree.... Nigerians like to be casual and unserious about most things and convert most things to party or fun. It's not a good culture!

There should be a protest/campaign to abolish N1000 note and restrict the amount of N500 note in circulation. It has made naira not t9 have much value again and caused price of everything to be 3k 5k 7k 10k instead of N925 or N9820

A lot of these extra judicial killings have to do with dares, counter dares, ego bruise and power tussles.

When will these idiots understand it's not by creating cursed committees?? It's by ACTION.

quentin06:
you re a misogynist to think that the problems of the world are caused by men, go and do something about the women who are being trafficked and those who are in the porn industry.

You re just a hypocrite, one who no doubt was used and dumped and want to cover your failures in life by accusing men.

You never had a father in your life .

The porn industry is paid for by men - again proving that men are dumb

tollyboy5:
Damage control it to late. Na implementation we thirst for. We are hungry and angry �

sars staff are also hungry and angry thats why they brutalize fellow nigerians - sars also have a warped primitive mentality.

JustforMen:
Wetin Botha talk?

He said black people cannot govern themselves and that all they know is sex and party. Nigeria has got to be the only country where a street protest was turned into part protest and part street party.

By Nigerian elite sending themselves to the UK for treatment, they admit black race inferiority indirectly..why not go to an African country??

This unserious black race has just turned a protest into a party.... maybe Botha was right.... I dunno

Arrewa:
Sometimes our politicians deserve some beating!

Have you ever wonder why kano is developing?

We hold our politicians accountable for our federal allocations.

We know what the president should do... We hold him accountable for that!

We know what a governor should do... We hold the governor accountable for that!

We know what senator should do... We hold our senators accountable for their jobs!

We know what a house is representative member should do... We hold them accountable for that!

We don't blame the president for what a governor or a senator should do

That's why kano is growing!! That is why kano is developing!

Don't mind Nigerians that blame the president for everything.. .it's just a refusal to look at things critically and intellectual laziness

Good development - the more foreign owned companies in nigeria the better - nigeria needs to adopt £ or $ too.

in the foreign owned companies bosses wont be asking out female coworkers because there are ethics and standards. the companies will be stable and wont collapse after several years.

sammysmiles:
We can't say all the leaders have been bad,,Let's just say 2 percent...For instance, . The preceeding LG chairman must be aware of the succeeding chairman .... That's why we have cases of godfatherism and Co..... Most people that leave position, usually bring in the next person whom they know and whom they can control..... Someone whose leadership was a failure, can he bring in a person who will be successful?

Blackman = excuses upon excuses smh

sammysmiles:
Which entire population? Is it not the same people that has been ruling, as they are jxt recycling themselves....Stop the joke young man...

its not... new crop of politicians come in as local govt chair people, state houses of assembly. 36 states * 30 house of assembly members = 1080 or 1100 people plus senate and co - thats 1200 people - for 60 years Nigeria has consistently been having 1200 bad leaders. Is it a curse??
