The Endsars protest was relatively peaceful across the country until the government sent thugs to loot and destroy properties and cause mayhem just for them to create a narrative that protest means anarchy... Let the government allow the people to express their grievance peacefully.

This generation no get respect for who no wan respect himself oh... If you misbehave you go collect

OPINION : Four Reasons You Should Think Before Joining The Nationwide Protest

By Wisdom Nwedene

Ahead of the planned nationwide protest scheduled to kick off on August 1st, 2024, I strongly believe that Nigerian Youth should think twice before joining the protest.

Though, there are genuine reasons for the protest but I have four strong reasons which made me to believe that this protest is not in the best interest of the country at the moment.

Below are my reasons

1. The organisers Of The Protest Are Faceless Individuals : It's crystal clear that those organising this protest are not known till now. I recommend that this type of protest should have leaders that should be calling the shots in case things go wrong. In a protest where everyone is a leader, many things can happen. The organisers should be at the forefront, leading the protesters and controlling the crowd so that things won't go wrong.

2. Thugs Can Hijack The Protest: It's very difficult to organise a peaceful protest in a country battling with bandits, criminals, hoodlums and expect things to go fine.

3. It's Still Early To Judge Tinubu’s Government : I still believe that it's too early to judge Tinubu’s Administration by leading this type of heavy protest against him. Despite that his policies are too harsh, Tinubu still needs time to address issues and bad policies of previous administrations.

4 All of us can still remember what happened during the EndSARS protest. Many lives were lost and property worth billions of Naira destroyed. How sure are we that this Nationwide won't degenerate to what happened during EndSARS protest? I think we should think twice. We can't afford to lose more lives and our national assets destroyed again just like what is happening in Kenya.

God will still punish you for supporting that Nigerians should shut up in the face of this provocative government...

Your paid antics won't work... This government is after our lives and the earlier we realize this the better... The recent actions of the regulators of the downstream petroleum sector is enough to annoy us more... They just feel Nigerians can find their way around that hardship their actions is causing. We won't accept any plea

Thunder fire Oro... We go beat them join the hunger wey dey catch them

Enough is enough... Why is this government afraid of protest... You can't beat a child and expect him not to cry.

The right to peaceful protest is a right that is guaranteed by our constitution

chrisxxx:
Are you aware that as of the time of the alleged defecting that Ehie was on suspension?
And that by the rules governing the House his membership was on suspension?

The law abhors a vacuum and as soon as the leadership that suspended Ehie announced their decision to leave the party that brought them to office they lost their seats hence the original and remaining house members were empowered to act and that's how he emerged speaker and in line with the constitution and as affirmed by a supreme court judgement he officially declared their seats vacant. They should withdraw the court cases and go back to the polls if they believe they're popular.

Fubara just dey waste time for nothing. By now, he should have gone after Wike's ill gotten investments in Rivers state and converted them to state properties.

My brother melembe melembe... We will get there... Part of that property on Ada George will be looked into... Then the governor has to start considering the expansion of Ikwerre road, especially between Rumuokwuta and Agip Junction.

Paraman:
Declared vacant by who?

Edison Ehie assume the position of speaker as soon as Martrins and his group of friends decamped and by virtue of his power as speaker declared the seat of Martins and his friends vacant... They are gone, they should go and start preparing for the by elections which I doubt they will succeed

amaridigital:
Sim Is not treating anyone with kid's glove. Thug for thug he can't defeat Wike. Power for power, he doesn't control the security apparatus which are under the control of the federal Government. What can he do? What would you have done?

He can buy the security apparatus in his state like his predecessor did, remember he's the chief security officer of the state... By the time he starts wielding the big stick the likes of Samuel Nwanosike and Chidi Lloyd will run off to Abuja cuz the state will be too hot for them.

How many Political parties can the man Wike Hijack... My only worry is how governor SIM treats this miscreants with kid glove

muhammaduyusufu:
Obidients have been holding spaces about how they will cause mayhem.

Some were even tweeting pictures of some high profile people like the CJN, Toyin Abraham e.t.c as their targets.

In saner climes characters like this criminal are not supposed to be the head of the judiciary, hawking justice like pure there denying the people justice... Nigerians are not happy and are ready for the government sponsored counter protest

Good one... The other group of friends can go and make laws for Abuja people

As Alex Otti constructed 1/3 KM of roads Wike built that you n your foolish tribesmen no go let the whole world hear word.

You know your foolishness make you think anybody that doesn't support the rubbish you all voted for is Igbo... Your parents should have used a condom or abort the disaster at conception.

Politicians always force the people against their will to live in there deceit...

Selfish man... With his selfish legacy project while the people wallow in hunger and hardship oga is cashing out from over bloated road contracts... Indeed Wike is working

Bulldozer90:
Nairaland mods why did you push a post by one notorious "diatari" claiming Opobo is an Ijaw town to front-page?

Can you show us any pre-independent document or written history book linking Opobo to Ijaw?

Continue glorifying lowlifes. The way you treat your site is the way it stays.

Please tell me what Opobo is? An Ikwerre town? A Riverine community that speaks Ibo and Ibani?

D

E get where foreigners no dey earn pass Nigerians?

Obviously...

Let watch the devilish children of corn defend rubbish

They keep recycling the same people... Well, congratulations to my Niger Delta brothers

CoronaVirusPro:
South East Givernors should stop patronizing local contractors! They are messing up and and glaring.

The road constructions are dirty jobs!

Keep quiet if you don't have what to say you slave to foreign slave masters...Who are you and what do you know about the Nigerian road construction industry? I can tell you for free that most of these foreigners come here with little or no experience, learn from the experienced Nigerian foremen on site as their manager and all of a sudden people with slave mentality like you now see them as semi gods... Stop it!

EmiloCorn:
Wetin concern International Airport with nepa? just look at their sister state Abia with their Geometric power. What did wike do for his people in that regard? Zilch

All these lazy ikwerre people self, no wonder igbos chased them away.

Their protest is valid...

DaddyYankee:
The only man that gives Obidients heart attack! Wotowoto

His embarrassment, shaming and rolling on potopoto in Rivers state is powered by the Obidients movement...


Our boys in the Civil society and the judiciary are working around the clock to chase his hallelujah boys out of the state house of assembly, GDI has been taken over

Abuja is not a state...

Na small mistake him make?

abobote:
Ordinary councilor and it's a news

Though resignation is not a Nigerian thing

A councilor representing Wike's ward is not an ordinary councilor oh

Truthshotcrazy:
