If Sowore is to take any blame, it is that he brought Jonathan not Buhari.
And by the way, Buhari is wicked and ignorant, Jonathan remains ever clueless and one of the most terrible in our history.
dantajay: You need to close your mouth and listen when elder talk from 2011 to 2015 sowore was on their pay roll to distroy and label the administration as worst government ever, he was under a salary of m monthly from the same people that has now arrested him. The main reason why he has been re arrested is not because he is calling for revolution, he has some money they gave him to launder for them that is what they are calling him for this time around. What goes around comes around. Just watch in few days what will happen. He thinks he is smart
I tire for the matter oo The guy is incompetent in every way Something is happening right here, no comment. It is Anthony Joshua that has no business with him he is congratulating.
9PBLIVE: you ran from DSS, instead of you to be on hideout till next year. You came out asking Nigerians to protest, which led you in detention for more than 100 days at the first place.
Oga, you and your family will protest alone. In fact, my God will punish anyone that wants to destabilize a duly elected democratic government.
Protests will never take the place of the ballot. And the ballots have spoken. The courts have also spoken and like we say in Latin, "Vox populi, vox Dei"
It is Sai Baba till 2023.
But why do I feel this guy has compromised and is only acting out a script?
It does not add up. If I were in his shoes and managed to escape from the court...releasing a video will be the last thing on my mind. No smart fugitive does that.
He does not even look reassuring, his speech delivery seems a bit coerced and not freely coming. Then how he gets up at the end of it tells a lot of stories.
It reminds me a lot about Tuface's speech on his cancelled protest.
Your editing has too much bias, you didn't even let us enjoy the interview. To answer your question, no he is not becoming anything of such Wole Soyinka speaks out and loud, he speaks against the ills of society and kudos to him for doing so. What society is bad it is bad but I bet he is more loyal and Nigerian than you. He has brought more fame and recognition to Nigerian than many who call themselves Nigerian
Look don't damage someone's image or brand because you are not happy with their style of if they commit fraud, leave it to the law to deal with it. What if it turns out he is innocent?
I am Yoruba and would rather fly the so called Airfraud and invest in it than believe than believe some American justice department. After-all, all business men do what he has done which is not bad but to bit the system.
Behave bro and grow up.
naijaguy123456: More power to your elbow Sir . We’re doing everything to make Nigeria work better but bad people like Onyeama with Airfraud will always tarnish our image. Big stupid thief is fronting for Jonathan and his family. He opened 9 accounts in USA and Canada and register businesses. These businesses buy and sell airplanes but the people he put in charge knows nothing about airplane, they are just dummies and fake . He moved billions from Nigeria go accounts in USA and Canada for the purpose of buying aircrafts but once the money made it to USA they are never touched. They remain in the accounts and he tendered fake Billings to the government making it look like businesses are going on. He bought and drive expensive cars starting from $300,000 and has numerous of them, stays in most expensive hotels, shop in high end shopping centers. Real business men don’t spend that recklessly.
His Airfraud will be sold off in auction, he will go to jail and all the stolen money will be rerun to Nigeria masses.
Stupid rumour monger, his company just bought aircraft worth 200million used. What is 14 million? Get a life!
Atouke: With the seizure of about $14million dollars belonging to the company, ordering of parts for the airline maintenance, payment for insurance, payment of foreign personnel and other sundry charges will be hampered. Aviation is heavily dollar dependent, if you lose access to your dollar account it becomes very difficult to operate.
Even if mr Onyema is eventually cleared of the charges after the case undergoes trial, which in American courts can take months if not years, but in the short term, the company will find it very difficult to operate with the seizure and freezing of his company US account.
This will hurt Air peace operations, the largest airline operator in Nigeria, and west Africa. The repercussions will be enormous, over 3000 direct employees, several pilots, engineers and other professionals about to become unemployed because of avoidable mistakes.
Looking for someone to run some errands to Lekki and Eko market. You will enquire for several product item prices and get some clear pictures. You must have good eye for detail, honest, trustworthy and understand market bargaining. Being a lover of arts and craft will be a plus. You will be paid of course.
The task will take 2/3 days but if you are an excellent performer who is also trustworthy there is possibility for continuing arrangement.
Success1020: Had Sowore Won The Presidential Election, Would He Be Fighting For Revolution? Sowore is just not a thoughtful human being, nor is he smart. You ran for an election under a system that you condone, supported and accepted. It was only after you lost, did you began to fight for revolution. Meaning, had you won, you would not had contemplated fighting for revolution. And I'm sure as president, you will arrest and jail anyone contemplating fighting a revolution against your government. You are just a compound hypocrite and must be dealt with to have sense. This doesn't make sense at all!
What kind of idiots does this Nairaland attract? Numskull.
thesolutions: Friday. The judge tried. Some judges would have adjourn bail hearing till December to make sure he is punished for saying rubbish and acting silly.
happney65: You need to see how I dey laugh..Buharists have all gone mute and cant even utter a single sentence..By the time Buhari is done with sowore,His dick would not even be hard again..He won't be able to fuccck his wife nor any of his side chicks again..When next we tell you about Buhari una no go argue..
Guess you all have seen how he has lost weight?Iya ti jee wayre..Lol
But it cannot be well for your people too because Sowore is fighting for the masses. Yeye dey smell. It's shame to share a national space with idiots like you.
Bacteriologist: Sowore has backed the wrong horse. He should have known better than fighting for ungrateful Nigerians.
Well I didn't expect less from a country where the average IQ is less than 75.
It doesn't work like that oga, someone has to fight for you even when you don't know that you are in captivity. The Azikwe's and Awolowo's fought freedom for generations they didn't live to know. Sowore is indeed a hero and of course is not foolish. Buhari's tenure will end anyway.
Gbengaolowe32: I beg on Buhari led administration to FREE SOWORE! Sowore should apologized in all Nigerian Daily News paper for calling for revolution out of his on selfish interest. Sowore contested 2019 Presidential election with President Buhari and he loose woefully, he's not the only one as Atiku came second but Atiku approach Court of Law for proper address of the issue then let just ask ourself WHY SOWORE WILL CALL FOR REVOLUTION BECAUSE HE LOST AN ELECTION?? The calling that almost led the country to Anarchy and Lost of life if not for the immediate effort of security operatives all over the country. God bless Nigeria! God bless President Muhammadu Buhari, God bless us!
Oloriburuku somebody, all your family will be detained by DSS, police and Army. Sowore is not your problem poverty, greed and inept leadership is...
"The People are technically walking about with odour covers on because the stench of greed has filled the nation's atmosphere". And now, not only our leaders stink. Citizens too are terrible.
constancefriday: Democracy has been raped and sloth shamed. The People are technically walking about with odour covers on because the stench of greed has filled the nation's atmosphere. Where went all the promises, all the hopes raised, all the excitement and expectations of fulfilled dreams as a Nation? Nigeria is like a beautiful black lady whose Fiance has ultimately disappointed. We are all having terrible nightmares like we've been bitten by Bill Gates' hybrid mosquitoes. While black bodies pile up lifeless like mere meat in our various peaceful, happy, loving and simple communities, Politicians are non-chalantly pouring and drinking the blood of those who died in their big parties and get together (abi you think sey na champagne you dey drink?) 2019 is Nigeria's 20th Year of Democracy and Femi Kuti's (the true Son of our Father Fela Anikulapo Kuti "Abami Eda" Africa's most original Spirit Man) in the song titled "Sorry Sorry for Nigeria" is playing in the background. Although Tony Tetuila said e go better, e come be like say na the ego of our political tyranosauruses na em dey beta while my People dey suffer chei. Where did democracy go? Whom will we blame? Should we heap all the blame on Buhari? Or should we go and protest on the expressway with mirrors in our hands instead of placards? The other time TuFace (TuBaba) brought himself out full scale to lead a protest, den kidnap im Mama, na so dem kidnap me sef for Ajah bus stop, where i locked down Lekki for 60 minutes to make sure an ordinary Nigerian who had an accident (hit and run accident) receives justice and good treatment. Who is the cause of this Curse or "Ekpe" the type of Ekpe wey Lagbaja release. He said "e no go better for anybody wey spoil this democracy" Who is spoiling our democracy? Is it Buhari? Is it Goodluck? Is it Obasanjo? Is it Rochas? Who dey do us like this oh? I dey cry because i see how my People dey Suffer and e dey pain me. What would Fela Say if he was still alive? What did Fela say when he was still alive. Today is Sunday and many People went to Church to pray, i'm not against you going to Church but the way i see your lives it's as if you all went to Church to receive heavy blows from your Bishops. May God help all of you. I round up by demanding for the unconditional and immediate release of Omoyele Sowore, who is currently detained indefinitely by the DSS. His detention by the DSS is a DISS on our democratic harmony and structural prestige. It is what i will call AN UNDEMOCRATIC UNDEMOCRACY. FREE SOWORE NOW UNCONDITIONAL, Let us regain our respect as a truly united, peaceful, sensible and prospective democratic nation across the world. #FreeSowore #Democracy #Nigeria #RevolutionNow...

Aonkuuse: which struggle is it that buhari is killing people or we Nigerians are killing ourselves or is buhari stealing money or what Revolution is he doing was he dead in the past administrations
Foolish man, who cares whether it is Buhari or Joshua. All Nigerians want is peace, safety, food and progress. Stop being foolish
Aonkuuse: You guys should be sure you end what you have started
Are you from another planet? Ask those profs and intellectuals in that room who have been in the struggle before you were born if they can finish what they started .
I have no time to read your idiotic nonsense that you've written. Foolish people... you all will soon realize it when it comes.
all of you should watch out.
candidtalk: Is he the foolish person or you are? Sowore contested to be President a few months ago thereby signifying his belief in Nigeria's democracy and the need to change it for the better from within. Now, after he lost, he wants revolution when Buhari has not even inaugurated his cabinet and nothing has happened to validate this incendiary protest.
Why did Sowore not choose this 'revolution' path to begin with and stay away from attempting to join organised and democratic governance of Nigeria?
Normal adult who keep peace and lead, on behalf of kids like you, know what Sowore is. A confused and dangerous anarchists, like Kanu, not bothered about Nigerians losing their lives in civil strife so long as his own ego and vainglorious sense of self-importance is sated.
REVOLUTION: Sowore was not properly advised, He may be sentenced to death - Richarmond O. Natha-Alade
Richarmond O. Natha-Alade
Today is another sad day, the day when youthful exuberance met another doom; the day we may continually remember another youth, not as martyr or hero but as scapegoat of ignorance and lawlessness.
Arrest of Sowore is long overdue, due to his stand as a sore loser who value less of democratic process that proved him unpopular in the last general election. He simply couldn’t get over the severe pain and mental illusion his votes availed him despite the noise and blackmails all over the media.
Nigeria is not a zoo Perhaps, Sowore was not properly guided. I would assume he never made any legal consultation before allowing himself to be driven adrift of a canoe with no paddle. He had simply played into the hands of his hunters by robbing petrol on his body despite knowing he was lying next to fire. Isn’t that foolishness?
Or how do one explain, that a seasoned journalist or knowledgeable legal practitioner does not know the difference between the word ‘peaceful protest’ as constitutionally guaranteed and ‘Revolution’ which is a capital offence under Nigeria criminal law.
To make matter worse, Sowore danced naked before an open fire, declaring Tunisia and Somalia situation and threatening suicide by burning himself to death in order to create a situation of unrest that may eventually lead to the destabilization of the country on all fore.
To Sowore or whoever his advisers are, it is a treasonable felony punishable by dead to incite the public to overthrow of a democratically elected government by any means; that is the simple and number one definition of ‘revolution’ you called for. No matter how it is garnished or whatever your intentions are, you just committed treason. Every thief has reasons to have stolen; it can be out hunger, out of jealousy, out of desire to be great or greater, out of greed or out of mischief etc. yet, he would never be absolved or justified for stealing, he would be tried and convicted for stealing. That is a perfect situation to describe your conduct no matter your intentions. Or at least, it may be another beautiful content in a rubbish package, which no one would look at.
Do you know that an attempt to commit suicide by words or action is a serious crime punishable by 14 years imprisonment under Nigerian law? That is another mistake you made. How do you come without facing trial for attempting suicide when you already declared to burn yourself alive to death to spark rage on the day of your protest? Tell us what is peaceful about death and violence?
For your education, the word revolution which you are brandishing, calling for and using anyhow over the years is not an ordinary English word; it will be taken serious by any serious government as other English words as; calling for murder, kidnapping, rape, coup d’état and other violence. If you have other explanations as to what you meant by revolution, court maybe your home till the next of years to come.
The Encarta Encyclopedia Dictionary (2007) edition defines revolution viz: “Overthrow of government, a ruler or political system”. It may have other definitions under wish you may resile, unfortunately, your intention had been enhanced and/or bloated out by your utterances to burn yourself alive till death in order to cause in Nigeria what happened in Tunisia or Somalia. Circumstantial evidence in this respect would ground you an easy conviction for both offences.
Mr. Sowore, do not listen to your hailers, praise singers and flatterers; all of whom knows how to hail persons to oblivion or death and forget such persons in matter of weeks when there is another distraction. We are in a peculiar nation. I beg of you to settle with your accusers before it is too late. El-zazakky, Dasuki and Nnamdi Kanu among others, who are in prison, serving forced disappearance and seeking asylum all over may be something small compared to your situation if you don’t seek timely remedy.
One of the Laws of Power is choosing your targets / fights wisely and not offending the wrong person; I hope you know this President Buhari too well?
I wish you well.
