I said it yesterday, the endSARs protest is having a BIAFRAN coloration!!!!

jjxxx:
This is not about yoruba hating Igbo. Igbo also hate Yoruba, so don't sound like it's a one way thing.
Moreover, if yoruba hate igbo as much as you think, do you know igbos are local government chairmen in Lagos which is a Yoruba state? Can that happen in igbo land? Let's stop this tribe thing and fight for restructuring or break up just as we are speaking with one voice now in this ongoing #EndSARS now.
This Ladies story is just one of those power show. It happens everywhere. Once you speak against your superior, even if you are right, this can happen.
Let's join force to make Nigeria great again or join force to have our freedom.

Igbo excesses in Yoruba land is getting out of hand!!! This is not hatred but the truth and we must protect our heritage! If Igbo call it hatred so be it but we must protect our land at all cost!

Every Igbo on earth wants to live in Lagos or Ogun state, for what?

Miniso:
You see dat Oba of lagos, that man is a foolish old man. that can do anything to get tips from Tinubu. I so much respect the ooni of ife, a well respected and sensible being. bribe has blocked that oba of lagos brain.. He wants to drown the igbo's when he has made zero contributions to the IGR of lagos.

Go and contribute to the IGR of Igbo states!!!

Idiotic comment!

The constitutional reform regarding citizenship over indegeneship, state of residence over state of origin..........Igbo man, NO WAY!!!!!

Who will agree to this rubbish?

DOA!!!

ThatFairGuy1:
The aim behind #EndSARS protest has been achieved or about to(if not), let's all throw our support behind these essential demands

This should be our concern NOW.



THE 7-POINT DEMANDS
Concerned Nigerian started this petition to Nigerian government and 1 other
We recognize that this moment is the culmination of decades of dissatisfaction over the decay and corruption of our dear country, Nigeria.
We find the unhealthy haste to fashion a unit termed “SWAT” to be a misrepresentation of the 5for5 demand. It is not enough.
This protest is beyond #EndSARS, #EndSWAT, #EndPoliceBrutality. This movement is for the soul of Nigeria. We are demanding a systemic overhaul of governance and institutional reforms as the barest minimum. We are better than what obtains presently; we demand progress.
We are not vain agitators. We are clear-eyed youths and professionals in our respective fields who are tired of the way and manner our dear country has been run aground by successive administrations. We cannot idly stand by whilst our future and that of our children are mortgaged.
Below is the updated 7-point demand that concerned citizens are asking from the government.
1. INSTITUTIONAL REFORMS (SECURITY)
That the 5-point demand to release arrested protesters, compensate families of victims, investigate and prosecute all reports of misconduct, proscribe SARS and review the welfare of police be implemented immediately.
However, we believe the systemic rot in the police is widespread across Government institutions. Therefore, we urgently demand an immediate Institutional reform across all federal government institutions, agencies and parastatals, especially focused on national security.
Focus will be on improved welfare and terms of service for the police, military and all law enforcement agencies, provide body worn cameras for operation, refurbished housing, health, academic and pre- and post-retirement life insurance policy for the rank-and-file personnel.
Also reforms on adherence to the laws guiding discipline and prosecution of erring service men this should be aimed at extinguishing all notions of impunity.
2) COST OF GOVERNANCE
We have watched over the years the waste associated with governing Nigeria. We have noted the duplication and unprofessionalism in the civil service and across all strata.
We demand an urgent budgetary framework with 50% capital expenditure and 50% recurrent expenditure in all appropriation bill.
We demand a drastic reduction in the cost of governance. We also demand that the national assembly, be first by streamlined into a unicameral legislative and be further stripped down to become a part time job.
The huge salaries and benefits accorded them by the Revenue Mobilization, Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC) should be reduced to the barest minimum.
3) CONSTITUTION REFORMS
There had been several constitutional reviews where youths were obviously absent. Whether by omission or commission or both, the time has come for an informed and progressive participation by the youths.
The Nigerian constitution as it exists presently does not serve all Nigerians. A more robust and engaged constitution designed and approved by all Nigerians will serve the nation.
We demand an urgent referendum within 90 days to begin the line-by-line review, reconstruction and upgrade of the extant constitution to be more functional for a 21st Century nation. The selection process for this referendum will have 50% young people under 60 nominated by their peers in a transparent, judicious and fair process.
We demand that credence be given to terms of citizenship over indigeneship and state of residence over state of origin.
4) EDUCATION REFORMS
· One in every five of the world's out-of-school children is a Nigerian child. About 13.2 million Nigerian children aged 5-14 years are not in school. The impact of this numbers will be felt for generations.
· We demand that a state of emergency is declared in the education sector and demand increase in the budgetary allocation to educational sector by 50% and to double again within the next 24 months. This funds will be used to drive the education sector to provide affordable quality education to all citizens.
· A certain percentage of this allocation should be devoted to granting scholarship to outstanding Nigerians without recourse to the tribe, religious or sex.
· We demand a systemic overhaul in our curriculum and method of teaching to upgrade to a digital experience.
· We demand that teachers should be incentivized to attract the best brains and should be standardized and professionalized.
· We demand that the parent of any child not in primary school will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
· We demand that there be an Annual independent external Audit of Fund allocation and project execution: from Government approval to disbursement across the ministry, which would further be used to publish at least an abridged Financial statement available digitally to ensure transparency.
5) HEALTH REFORMS
· We demand that a state of emergency is declared in the health sector and demand increase in the budgetary allocation to health sector by 50%
· We demand mandatory health insurance for the vulnerable population in our society as NHIS is not doing enough to serve all Nigerians.
· We demand that adequate provision be put in place to protect the rights and privileges of physically challenged citizens in Nigeria.
· We demand urgent attention to mental health and a fund to set aside to create more professionals.
· We demand proper implementation of the National Health Act of 2014, including the Basic Health Care Provision Fund).
· We demand that there be an Annual independent external Audit of Fund allocation and project execution: from Government approval to disbursement across the ministry, which would further be used to publish at least an abridged Financial statement available digitally to ensure transparency.
6) YOUTH AFFAIRS REFORM
We have noted the giant strides made by Gen Z and Millennials across the globe. Many multi-billion corporations where founded by both generations. In Nigeria, it is extremely difficult for such to occur. The enabling environment viz-a-viz investors and lenders confidence, stable interest rate and manageable inflation are deficit in our dear nation.
· We demand that a state of emergency be declared in the ministry of Youths and Sports, Ministry of Science and Technology and Ministry of National Planning. We demand that this should be adequately funded, sports academy should be revamped.
· We demand the creation of the Youth development funds dedicated to growing the creative industries and agriculture.
· We demand the creation of the Youth development funds dedicated to growing the creative industries and agriculture.
· We demand that the Not-Too-Young to run bill should be expanded to include–50% inclusion of youth under 40 in every cabinet in government.
· We demand that the youth inclusion be monitored by the FCC as they currently monitor state inclusion and the NCDMB and other stakeholders partake in this action to protect our future.
7) PUBLIC OFFICE REFORMS
· We demand code of conduct reforms for all elected public office holders to have themselves and their children use public schools and public hospitals ONLY. Violation of which is immediate impeachment and recall.
· We demand immediate removal of immunity clause from public office holders to make them answerable to investigations at all times when and where necessary.
· We demand immediate resignation of every public officer found guilty of any forms of crimes and corruption they should step aside during investigation also.
· Implementation of full digitization of the judicial process, prison decongestion reforms, with reforms drawn from past projects like the Uwais Report, Keyamo’s ministerial screening address, strict time limits to determination of industries litigations, etc.

Your constitutional reform is DEAD ON ARRIVAL!!!!! Citizenship over indegeneship? State of residence over state of origin? You are definitely IGBO!!!!! It won’t FLY!!!!!

Etrusen:
these are the demands and more are still coming

Not properly articulated. Just too general meaningless and not specific! Jeez!

I am worried because the protests are beginning to get a BIAFRAN coloration !!!!

Goodmarlian:
I know you are ibedun ,e go shock you..

Paranoid!

sapientia:
OP, brain is not for safe keeping

Its for usage

Don’t be stupid, ask him for his reasons. Use your brain too Sir!

Kzinne:
#endtunubuhegemonyinlagos

Stupid IPOB!

You think we are stupid in the West! We don’t throw away the baby with the bath water.

In a revolution your family are not sparred

zoedew:
We are getting ready! Should be interesting to see Dino Melaye display his loot as he is wont to do. All who impoverished NIGERIA must give account.

Absolutely! The writing is on the wall!

I wish I could call my political mentor, the Jagaban himself to ask him to quickly relinquish all Lagos state assets that he acquired on the cheap PLUS the outrageous pension he allocated to himself!

The party is really over!

tollyboy5:
Who is this M∆D MAN?
APA lo ma pa é

Iyanla iya e! Shebi you are coming back to Lagos? If I will drive up to that Akure, you are marked!

Kzinne:
It's time for #endtinubuhegemonyinlagos

Shut up! Tinubu is not FG and he has never ruled your country or eastern state!

Face your federal government!!

csn01:
Add yours instead.

I have added mine, please read and re-read it!

tollyboy5:
Religious hypocricy is what I'm talking about. So rampant in the north. They leave child marriage and start running after beer bottle

Shut up! I am really waiting for you. I must teach a Nairaland yooot a lesson and you have been selected.

Luftwaffe:
Yoruba will never deal with their corrupt leaders. They love them & will defend them at any cost.

Where did you bury Ojukwu the Ojucrook?

Goodmarlian:
Come and say this in lekki tollgate..

So you don’t want the truth? So protests will suddenly make your country developed like America?

I hope you are not all deluded!

You were shouting Nnamdi Kanu in another thread!

Commonsense99:

Biko biko Electricity is number 1, it even supercedes #end Sars.
So many Nigerian youths can be gainfully employed from their homes with legit 9-5 online outsourcing jobs from companies in Western worlds with 6 figure salaries if only their was constant electricity.
If their was Electricity small and Medium industries will boom.
Hospitals will function better.
Life expectancy will even increase.

Oga please be sensible and realistic, the country cannot afford the capital expenditure required to put the infrastructure in place!
We just don’t have the money required, since all the components will be imported.

Pure rubbish!!!

Meaningless garbage...........

What is cost of governance?!Be specific like senator should earn no more than $50k a year, allowance no more than $10k a year. All past politicians must declare their assets (we know who they are and where they are), rescind all state governors/deputy governor pensions and pay no more than $2000 per month to any governor. Very specific!

Draft a job description for all elected politicians, most of them don’t have a clue why the are in the assembly, House of rep or the Senate.

No gifting of vehicles to judges, law makers, local chiefs, Obas, Emirs and Ezes!!!

Reduce governors security vote to zero!

Publications of all allocations to States and all local governments

All federal government, state and local governments to register all contracts awarded into a central database that all Nigerians can view. Any contract not on the register is null and void!!!

Yamleg:
Ok

No vex

Yujin:
You can make an investigation in South Sudan today and get to the know the feeling of the people whether the missed the former Sudan. After that will your suggestive question be properly defined.
Let's send the invaders away first after all the only things they bring to Nigeria is bad news. We can always discuss like educated people.

Ok but this Aboki illiterate narrative is false oooo!
Look at their political sophistication!!!

Yujin:
We can always agree to disagree. Let's send the Invaders away first then we can discuss and settle amicably. We are both/all educated down south.

Man wey sabi, I concur!

This Aboki illiterate narrative is propaganda ooo!
They are politically suave than the whole south put together. The direct opposite of our emotional brothers from the SE. Just saying.....

Xclusivedaniel6:
hey you, this is the beginning of the the end of tribalism so please shot your clout chasing idea

Shut up! The only tribe shouting tribalism everywhere because you want stay in your own territory!

A Biafran?

You are all mad !!!!!

Yujin:
Nigeria will divide when the storm descends and those who value modernity and development will grow but those still stuck in the primitivity of ancient Arabia will remain stuck in times. That's their own cup of tea.
Support the break up of Nigeria. It will save lives.

Just remember there is nothing like Southern Nigeria oooo!

wristbangle:
The revolution we clamoured for is already brewing little by little.

I hope by next week we will see hashtag
like ENDNASS, DELETETINUBU DYNASTY, ARRESTALLPOLITICIANS, ENDECONOMICSSTAGOTAGE and more.

You no well!

We voted freely for his dynasty because we believe in it. Don’t get too carried away by the protests. South Sudan fought the North together in unison for decades, immediately they got their independence what happened? Protests can erase our tribe, our differences, our history and ancestral land.

#endSARS is finished.

Please start #end NASS outrageous salary and allowances!!!

Righteousness89:
My Precious Daddy Has Picked Mama Call

Congratulations Mama..

Where was the daddy all these years, abeg thank the youths!

Good but why is she hawking groundnut at her age?

Protests will not solve the protracted systemic problems of Nigeria!

Protests will not set up factories or harvest food from the farms or create electricity or build roads!
We need huge national income which we don’t have.

Protests will not balance the FG budget though it may reduce evil wastages like legislooter’s pay and allowances.

And ignoring tribal differences pretending to be one-Nigeria will not last!

kenzysmith:
upon all this protests this people still ve still refuse to to get the message? Nigerians don't waste your time anymore cause this show this APC goons will not act let we the youths plan and look for a capable youth born in Europe or America to come and rule us to bring a world class ideas to rule this country let start it now not latter am ready to donate my own 500 hundred naira

World class ideas required patriotic, committed, disciplined, thoughtful, law abiding, morality, CITIZENS. The citizens of Nigeria have no moral values, are lawless and indisciplined, dishonest and corrupt, stubborn and ignorant, immoral etc etc

Nigerians have to change first!

BigBrother9ja:


I know the pigs are responsible for this.


Useless people.

Yes the pigs from across the Niger!

We must reign them in by all means.

Foolish youths. Nigerians need to STOP having children anyhow!
