The accounts were frozen because at the time of the protest, certain accounts received sum of money which to the knowledge of the Secret Service, and thorough investigations, were meant to keep the protest going on even after the demands were being met.

You might not find this info elsewhere.... But that is it.

Also, it might get to a stage where it becomes necessary for the above-named people to proof their innocence in their association with some 'chief land border smugglers' who formed part of the major sponsors of the #endsars hoodlums who had no other aim but to force the border securities to flee their posts and they would operate freely.

Paid APC dingbats sighted. Most of the funds used for the #EndSARS protests were sourced on Twitter using crowdfunding. People like you who support evil will be consumed by it.

ivolt:
Lagos has the largest number of thugs and hooligans in the country. It is very easy to recruit such characters for any nefarious activity.
The plan of the anarchists didn't go as planned the last time. The police should be proactive and not wait for anarchist organisers to mobilise before responding. We know how the sponsors did the last one, use thugs to block roads, harass motorists and loot businesses. When public opinion changes, the "peaceful" protesters will then deny their foot soldiers or responsibilty.

Even if some organizers have one hundred peaceful intent, they cannot control the protesters nor direct how it will end. Whet they will end up doing is causing more destruction of lives, businesses and encouraging the most violent criminals to come out their shell.

Why should innocent young Nigerians be held responsible for the havoc wreaked by the ignorant foot soldiers of political elites?

This is one of the major problems with Nigerian politicians and their apologists. Instead of you people to address the fundamental issues, you are busy chasing shadows. Destruction of public and private properties is condemnable albeit many of the ’hoodlums’ who carried out these wanton destructions are politicians’ local boys from the hood(agberos, omo itas, and their ilk). The same people that politicians always use to win elections and the same people some politicians sent to attack peaceful and innocent #EndSARS protesters - hence: creating violence and destruction in the process. They are the same hoodlums that decades of failed leadership by heartless politicians denied education and pathways to economic prosperity because their continued state of ’hoodlumship’ is strategic to you greedy politicians’ hold on political power.

Instead of these politicians to condemn their boys from the hood and bury their heads in shame for enhancing a system that breads street urchins, agberos, political zombies and imbeciles, they are busy trying to flip the script on the average innocent Nigerian youths who are striving to make a living despite finding themselves in an environment that stifles dreams/ambitions. I still can't wrap my head around why Nigerian political elites are so greedy, heartless and shameless! Smh.

Besides giving bragging rights and trolling ammunition, it adds nothing to us whatsoever.

It adds global influence. Many of these guys will always stand for Nigeria - particularly young Nigerians when it matters. For instance, Oye(the guy that won the Congress seat) led End SARS protests here in DC some days ago.

alexistaiwo:
Stop celebrating mediocrity.


He is there to defend and promote America's interest not Nigeria.

He works for the Nigerian community here as well. He led End SARS protest here in DC last two weeks.

PVision2020:
You should be educated enough not to preempt the outcome of the panel and not to resolve to emotional blackmail, rants and curses.
Let us wait for the outcome of the judicial panel before coming to conclusion. Let the victims and their families show up, you and others with "evidence" should also report to the panel.

I'll bookmark this thread and call you out for a robust discussion after the outcome of the judicial panel.

What happened to the outcome of the Kaduna Enquiry that uncovered how 347 Nigerians were killed by soldiers?

Mycoin:
From Lekki Massacre, to Lekki Killing, to Lekki Shooting, to Lekki Incident, to Lekki Situation.

With time, lie dey heavy for mouth.

Tell that to the government who first lied that soldiers were not at the toll gate. Then lied that the video was photoshopped. And again later claimed that soldiers were deployed but didn't shoot at protesters only for the state governor to confirm deaths and several investigative journalists uncovering multiple deaths.

NGpatriot:
Youa re preaching to the wrong person, your sermon and emotional ramblings is nothing without credible facts and evidence of killings and massace and the fact that that you repeat your tales every minute doesn't make it true or acceptable in any court of law.

Show us real proof and evidence of massacre and 78 or 15 dead protesters of shushh.

Lol. Evidence? Have you seen the report published by Premium Times today? More evidence will be presented at the right time. We are looking beyond a farcical government Panel. A similar Panel was set up in Kaduna and it was discovered that over 340 people were gruesomely murdered by Nigerian soldiers. Yet, the Nigerian government is yet to prosecute a single person for such carnage. So, why should we trust such a useless and heartless regime? We will not allow ourselves to be played this time around. Just watch out.

Once again, Premium Times already published some untold part of it - maybe you chose not to read it since it contradicts your script.

PVision2020:
The panel is open, you can avail them the evidence you have.

Do you think this is a joke? Just watch out.

A similar Panel uncovered how soldiers extra-judicially murdered over 347 people in Kaduna, how many people have been prosecuted for such mass murder?

Even the government that funds E-Rats are already jittery. Let's see how things shape up in the next few weeks - when the truth starts taking the front burner.

And to everyone who have been paid to shamelessly defend the murder of innocent young Nigerians at Lekki, may such calamity befall them and their generations to come in no distant time.

NGpatriot:
Words of mouth and den say den say are not admissible in courts of law and definitely the judiciary panel.

I bet your friend also peddled fake news pictures of dead people.

Even the government that funds E-Rats are not this confident. Let's see how things shape up in the next few weeks - when the truth starts taking the front burner.

And to everyone who have been paid to shamelessly defend the murder of innocent young Nigerians at Lekki, may such calamity befall them and their generations to come in no distant time.

EndSARS riots? or do you mean damages caused by thugs/agberos/street urchins that heartless and greedy politicians have impoverished and use during elections?

#EndBadGovernanceInNigeria.
#JusticeForVictimsOfLekkiMassacre.

PVision2020:
To start with, the "massacre" is only a figment of your imagination. Get a dictionary and thank me later.
Lastly, there is no gaslighting in pointing the readers to the real massacre that some hypocritical folks has refused to talk about.

Arguing about the genuineness of a massacre I have friends that witnessed and I’ve shown me evidence that is being kept away from the public so that the government can lie and fail?


https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/423823-investigation-bullets-blood-death-untold-story-of-what-happened-at-lekki-toll-gate.html?fbclid=IwAR0FHBCc7IDFQEWjIhTcy1Api6sODgFM2_UyH1jEL7iY8sE8VuX4m2I8WTI

Maybe you should read that report and discern by yourself - if you are not one of those paid Tinubu/APC E-rats and street urchins who have no idea of how the current system is rigged against them and why peanuts from greedy and heartless politicians won't save them from suffering in a failed system.

PVision2020:
Op, please start creating threads about the continuous killings of your people in Oyigbo, the real massacre is happening there. Stop hypocritically crying more than the bereaved.

You people are known to carry other people's problem for head like gala and summarily look away from yours.
You've been every where criticising Tinubu and Sanwoolu for the Lekki shootings (erroneously and mischievously called massacre) but Wike and the military is using your people as shooting practice in Oyigbo with pictorial and video evidence of the massacre but who are you to say pim to your Lord Wike.
Few months ago the Army still kill dozens of your people in Enugu with no one criticising the governor, as a matter of fact it took days before any Igbo leaders said anything about the massacre.
The effeminate Peter Obi and his estranged alcoholic godson Obiano supervised the gruesome killings of hundreds of your people and dump their body to rotten at the Ezu River with none of you calling for their heads.
Same thing happen in afara ukwu and several other killings, but that one no consign una, na other people matter una dey choke mouth.

We can see beyound your hypocritical agenda. Killings are happened/happening in all SE states start focusing your attention on that and stop crying more than the bereaved.
The panel as been set up, let anyone who is affected by the Lekki shootings come forward to get justice.

I hope you demand same from Wike, Peter Obi, Obiano, Ugwuanyi, Ekweremadu, Ikpeazu, Umahi and several others that has supervised the killing of your people.
The SE lives too matters.

Hypocrities!!!

The issue here is about the Lekki Massacre. Don’t gaslight or obfuscate the readers.

HundHunter:
I'm yet to see the video though and i didn't support the stupid actions of the senseless army.

My worry is why are the concerned families are yet to talking about it, one week plus after.

Oga. Who told you they are not talking about it? I know of families that have been searching for their loved ones since that night.

SilverNorGold:
celebrities from the pit of Hell.. They should all be rounded up and dealt with accordingly.. After they've been ruthlessly dealt with, they should, by the court, be ordered to pay for all damages caused, and if the celebrity is a pastor, be made to resurrect the victims of their fake news and lawlessness.. This would serve as a deterrent to all fake news purveyors, celebrity or not..

Nigeria must be great.. By fire, by force!

What fake news did they share?

GreatResearcher:
I'm not supporting assault but the lady got what she deserved. Watch the video very well you will see that the lady deliberately wanted the soldier to beat her so she can post it on the internet and trend. Even when people begged her to leave she thrown herself on the soldier.

Modified:
Whenever you see a soldier or officer in military uniform, it's most likely that he or she is on official duty.
These men while on duty try to steal a little time from their busy schedule to attend to their personal needs.

That is why most of them when the go to ATM stand they try to beat the queue because of their limited time.

This soldier went to the ATM stand as you can see his dressing. There's 90% possibility that he is on duty.

He tried to beat the queue. Instead of the lady to speak to him politely she started with insults.

Was the lady the only person at that ATM?

The soldier annoyance was she bringing out her phone to record the soldier.

That was when the soldier puts his wallet in his pocket and brought out his belt.

He didn't even beat her o.

She wanna trend that's all.

Oga, no matter what, a soldier should not lift a finger against an unarmed civilian. Such nonsense can only happen in a country like Nigeria.

rastamouse:
Nigeria missed a great chance to force change. Protests of this sort are not just organized haphazardly like it was done with the #EndSars. I blame the organizers.

After getting the attention of the whole world, the organizers failed to clearly define a motive. Eventually, everyone tried to take credit not knowing they were dealing with politicians.

The cause of the protest failed when the IGP cleverly isolated Davido and later leaked a video of the singer denying ever being part of the protests. That was the day that the politicians poured water on the protest. The thugs were sent to cause mayhem and eventually, some state sponsored hoodlums were made to do all the bad things that later got blamed on the protests.

What the politicians have succeeded in doing is that they have carved a bad name for the protests and nobody wants to be associated with it again. A failed revolution is very dangerous because this generation may not get this chance ever again.

The organizers failed big time. They never realized that the game that they have started is a 3D chess and it can only be played when you use your head and not emotions.

I weep for this country

What's stopping you from leading your own?

What sort of nons.ense post is this? Falz was the one that led the first protest and he was at several protests after that. Smh

DontBullshitMe:
People foresaw this. They requested that the protests be stopped and the blocking of highways be suspended but rather we were all insulted and cursed.

Now, they stopped because of the loss of lives and properties that could have been avoided if this step had been taken earlier.

Anyway, better late than never.

This whole situation could have been avoided if we had leaders who keep to their promises. People have been complaining about SARS for years. And each time there was a loud cry in previous years, the government will dump a press statement to the public claiming they have disbanded or overhauled SARS with a view to keeping us shut instead of taking decisive actions to address our pains. This explains why most people struggled to believe the sincerity of the government when it regurgitated familiar rhetorics about SARS earlier this month.

If they had genuinely addressed the yearnings of young Nigerians before now, the country would have averted the events of the past two weeks. A lack of sincerity of purpose led to all these. FAILURE OF LEADERSHIP LED US HERE!

Bobby4090:
Buhari an Hausa man sent Soldiers to kill Yorubas in Lagos. Yoruba people got angry and started destroying Lagos and killing their fellow Yorubas. Meanwhile Hausa properties both in Lagos and elsewhere are safe. Ibos now mobilized other Yorubas to burn Oba of Lagos Palace. What a shame.
In the end, Yorubas and have suffered a triple loss. Meanwhile Buhari who ignited this fire in Lagos is somewhere laughing. He has refused to even make a statement because his interior motives of bringing down the south is coming to pass. Very sad that Yorubas can set fire to 300 BRT buses the own yet are afraid to touch one of the thousands of Dangote trucks that cripple Apapa with go slow.
A problem that started in Ughelli, that should have been fought majorly in Abuja, has resulted to the destruction of Lagos by Lagosians.
So be it!

When did Ibo mobilize Yorubas to attack Oba of Lagos palace? Those who attacked the palace are the same locals(agbero, omo ita) and others they use during elections.

festacman:
Conscience is an open wound, until truth can heal it.

I am beginning to believe that the use of soldiers instead of riot policemen to disperse protesters who were disobeying lawful curfew at Lekki Tollgate may be wrong but the impression that masaccre and genocide happened was a big lie. There is no way trained soldiers would have shot directly at scampering protesters without the Lekki Tollgate being littered with corpses. Yes, the soldiers used maximum force but they obviously shot to scare and disperse and not to masaccre as emotional social media hype conveyed.

Truth will set you free and it doesn't matter if you are rightly an angry youth. I haven't seen any evidence that somebody died at the Tollgate the night of 20.10.20 to warrant the hype of massacre or genocide.

29.10.20 was neither a massacre nor a genocide but an unnecessary use of military rather than riot police to disperse resolute protesters.

Another shameful comment. Sanwo-Olu himself during this interview said soldiers were not meant to be at the toll gate until 10pm. He said the curfew was extended until 9pm and the protesters were still within their rights to gather.

Go and watch the report on BBC news. Soldiers allegedly took away the dead bodies of victims and Sawo-Olu himself as confirmed the use of live ammunitions and the death of at least one person.

JAMO84:
Only foolish people don't know the videos are fake

Instagram live videos are fake? And Sanwo-Olu that confirmed the incident is also lying?

Go and watch the Instagram live video of DJ switch. What about the reports on Channels TV?

Are you okay? What about the Instagram live video? Can live videos during chaos be fake?

And Sanwo-Olu himself has confirmed that soldiers were deployed and they indeed open fire. Go and watch his Arise News interview earlier today.

Shame on people trying to rationalize this carnage.

.. Enemies of Nigeria doing everything possible to destroy Nigeria, but they will always fail..

They should continue peddling fake news, and altering reality. One day, they'll meet their disastrous end..

Nigeria must be great..




My beloved brother, Nigeria is not finished, and will never.. That well-meaning Nigerians, eyewitnesses and security agencies are coming out to dispel your wicked lies doesn't, in anyway, signify the end of this great nation.

If anything, the truth has rebuilt and strengthened Nigeria. Abi as infrastructure and lives are being wasted due to the fake news, you like am? If you do, we don't.

That said, Nigeria must be great, whether its enemies like it or not.. Forward ever, backward never.

God bless Nigeria.
God bless us all.

Are Instagram live videos also ”photoshopped”?

Is Sanwo-Olu also lying when he said soldiers were deployed on that night and there was indeed a shooting?

Edopesin:
The legit protesters should go home and save yourselves, the army have a justifiable reason to use excess force to stop this lawlessness being perpetuated by the hoodlums under the guise of EndSARS protesters

You must be out of your mind to justify this carnage. Lekki protesters have been 100% peaceful. They were not the ones that attacked police stations. They’ve been camping at the tollgate.

What can justify opening fire on peaceful protesters like this? Animals without human feelings.

Neurotika:
The protesters are as confused as the government. Of all the problems of this country, you singled out only SARS. Now when government answers that, you suddenly realize SARs isn't the only problem. Yet you want them to take you serious by constantly shifting the goal post. When the word revolution is called you'll call it political. "This is a start" is the usual rant...yet what's the assurance you'll get this opportunity again?. Nigeria's problem is deeply rooted in ALL the administrative structures designed by this corrupt and incompetent leaders. This should be the focus. And it goes beyond writing ambiguous words on placards. Men of integrity and competence needs to come together in their numbers and influence the system via elections. Imagine if all the people carrying placards all agree to a particular candidate in the upcoming elections. Imagine the broad impact this will have on the current system. The problems of this country is deeply rooted in the fundamentals and it's only an effective leader that can solve them. Treating symptoms of a disease won't get anyone anywhere. But then, you're all enjoying your rage so knock yourselves out....

Oga, have you heard about their 5for5 demands?

DontBullshitMe:
If you believed the #endSARS protesters are not hired or influenced by any political party.

Do well to view this protest in the same light so as not be a hypocrite.

#EndSARS protesters have their own ecosystem and source of funding. If you go on Flutterwave or the page of the Feminist Coalition, you can see how funds are being crowdsourced and disbursed. For instance, I’m a Nigerian in the diaspora and I know how much many of us have donated to support the protest against police brutality and call for government accountability.

We can verify the sources of funding of #EndSARS protesters. Can we say the same about these ones?

Neddstark:
Feminist Coalition who has been sponsoring the protests are a faceless group in abroad.
Stupid youths, suddenly believe they have power made it their job to block the roads and frustrate government, not knowing it is themselves they are frustrating.
Other states copied it, now they have used it to destroy law and order.
The two main prisons in a massive Edo state has been let out open. Expect cultism and crime in that state to triple and of course no police to restore law and order unless military comes in.
The protests have done nothing more than taking Nigeria backwards. Criminals, cultists and kidnappers are extremely happy that there is less police presence on the streets. Let the blockade protests end now.

Feminist Coalition is based in the abroad? You must be out of your mind. Kiki Mordi and other founders of the organization all live either in Lagos or Abuja.

DontBullshitMe:
It's a rally for the Nigerian folks in Michigan, USA.

If they really cared about the country, they will be here in Nigeria contributing their quota towards Nigeria's GDP growth.

Same with that Dr Olufunmilayo on Twitter, After he'd received subsidized medicine education in Nigeria, he ran to UK to practice leaving the people whose taxes were used to subsidize education for him helpless. Now, he is at the forefront of the protest, (on Twitter in UK ofcourse) cheering on youth to occupy highways to further ground Nigeria's fragile economy.

I laugh at people's naivety.

So you mean Nigerians who were born abroad don't have the right to protests in solidarity with their brothers back home? Do you know the End SARS movement has now witnessed protests in more than 50 countries? There is even a video from Nigerian-American influencers that is currently circulating on YouTube.

LivingSage:
God bless them.

If those criminals parading themselves as protesters could free their fellow criminals (inmate) in Benin prison, what more can't they do.

Any criminal protesting now should be arrested. Saner Nigerians has back out as the protest has turned to venue for criminality.



STOP MENTIONING ME, THUNDER WILL NOT FIRE YOU.
If they had comport themselves in peaceful manner and doesn't distrupt our peaceful atmosphere, WILL THERE BE ARMY INTERVENTION?

When they're going beyond bound now, Should FG leave them to shatter Nigeria?

STOP MENTIONING ME

Protesters were not the ones that attacked Benin prison. Watch the interview of Obaseki. The people that attacked the prisons are cult groups/hoodlums who sent away the original #EndSARS protesters.
