It is true that we ndi Igbo were able to reason along with Mr Presido.But i hope it will not turn to tribal war as other tribes are complaining about ndi igbo's decision.


No, it won't. Though, people are generally disappointed because even the SS protested (The highlighted is all over twitter and facebook). Anyhow, there is freedom of speech et.al!

Abeg, you people go and die with your failed protest. When two or three engage in a walkabout these days, they call it "protest."
I have been saying it from the very beginning that the protest message is bebulous, aimless and directionless. Its all about how to shamelessly divide oil money.

The protests have failed, people have done their walkabout and gone home, planes are flying and landing, oil is pumping, there is electricity. All that is left now, is to tell more lies and spread more empty sentiments to nowhere.
How does protest against the removal of subsidy equate to the highlighted? Are you high?
Again, ethnic sentiment will not work. God bless O,B,A! According to Kpogede!

The killing was done in Lagos anyway. I don't see what it has to do with Warri, except desperate people trying to whip up sentiment for their failed protest.
And so?? Is he not human?? Was he not shot today by the police force for expressing his fundamental human right?

The police killed this guy and this is sheer extra-judicial killing. That is part of what Nigerians are protesting against today. No to Corruption in all sector including the police.

Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala just now on Channels TV claimed that the 240Billion budgeted for fuel subsidy in the 2011 budget was only for 2 months as the Govt had planned to remove fuel subsidy actually in 2011!!!

This government and the amount of lies and deceit being churned out is too nauseating.
She claims that FGN would create 370000 jobs yearly but could not state how or where the jobs would be created. She alwo claimed that the SURE project documents had been designed well in advance, just that the VP Sambo was struggling to get it out to the media houses and it just happened that it finally made it after the removal grin

Now if this country needs money from fuel subsidy removal to finance almost all the projects listed in the 2012 budget, then what was the proceeds from the 2.4 Million barrels per days crude sales meant for? is it meant just to finance the running of government and allowances of NASS?

It is clear this government is clueless about how to move forward.
shocked shocked shocked

WARRI- THE oil city of Warri, neighboring Effurun ,Udu and environs in Delta State were shut down Monday following a mass protestby irate citizens protesting the removal of fuel subsidy by the FederalGovernment.

The protest, which was in compliance with thedirective of the organized labour and civil society was led by the Delta statecoordinator of the NLC/TUC and civil society group, Casely Omon-Irabor Esq.

The response was massive and total from what Vanguardwitnessed a position that was corroborated by the state coordinator of the Forumfor Justice and Human Rights Defence, FJHD, Oghenejabor Ikimi Esq.
As at 6.00 am, Omon-Irabor was already at thetake-off point of the mass protest in Warri, according to our findings tocoordinate the day’s event, while people started gathering at about 7.30 am.
The protest commenced in Warri some few minutes to 9.00 am at the old Warri Port gate withprayers and advice from the organizers to the protesters to be orderly.

The previous night, there was an unconfirmed report that Boko Haram suicide bombers andmembers with guns and machete had infiltrated the subsidy protests in Lagos,Abuja, Edo, Delta, Kaduna, Kwara and Rivers states to cause mayhem.

Labour leaders and citizens were urged to be watchout for infiltrators, but in Warri, there was a heavy presence of security agents,as the protesters marched from old Warri Port enroute Effurun roundabout toGovernment House Annex, along the NPA expressway.

There was total compliance as shops, markets,offices and banks were all locked up. The main market, Warri and Okere marketwere also closed.
Omon-Irabor addressed the public at Okere marketjunction, stating reasons for the mass protests by Nigerians and calling all citizensto reject the bad policy, no matter the inconvenience. He said the will of peoplewould certainly triumph over the dictates of the powerful few in Aso Villa.
He said the motion passed, Sunday, by the House ofRepresentatives calling on the Federal Government to suspend the about 120 percent increase in the price of fuel was an indication that even those ingovernment know that the decision was ill advised, adding that except the priceof petrol was reverted to the old price of N65, the protests would continue.

As at 11.51 am, the protesters have reached EnerhenJunction and in the words of Oghenejabor Ikimi, “It is a peaceful protest and ahuge success. I can tell you that there is total compliance. Warri and environswere shut down. The protest here is a massive one”.
“I urge the president to respect the views of Nigerians and their representatives in theHouse of Representatives by suspending the removal of subsidy on petrol beforedialoging with Nigerians on the way forward”, he asserted.



Some members of the Maritime Workers Union ofNigeria told Vanguard that security operatives, especially those of Joint TaskForce, JTF, the Navy and Police, whose offices are located inside the port premises,were allowed to go inside to carry out their security duties.



Motor-cyclists, popularly known as Okada ridersand bus drivers were allowed to do their normal transportation business.



The resumption date for secondary and primaryschool students in the state was shifted by a week by the authorities toappraise the mass protest, while government agencies like the NNPC andDESOPADEC, along the Warri-Sapele Road, Warri locked up for fear of theunknown.

PoliticsSecurity Agencies Foil Protest In Bayelsa-vanguard Newspaper by jason123(op): 12:26pm On Jan 09, 2012
By Samuel Oyadongha, Yenagoa

Security operatives, Monday,stopped a fuel subsidy removal protest by Civil Liberties Organisation in Bayelsa State from holding on the streets of Yenagoa the Bayelsa State capital over fear that it could spiral into violence.

The rally, billed to have commence at 7am at the Opolo junction, in the heart of the capital city and terminate at the Ovom Government House, it was learnt failed to hold as the police authorities after agreeing to the protest later kicked against it over alleged security report that it could be hijacked by hoodlums to breach the existing peace in the state.

Armed policemen backed by armoured personnel carrier were deployed to the Opolo axis, the supposed take off point of the protest rally, which was dramatically shunned by residents.

The development however prompted the civil society groups’ leaders to change tactics and converged at the Nigeria Union of Journalists secretariat along Azikoro road, Ekeki where they addressed the press on the raging fuel subsidy removal saga and need for the Federal Goovernment to revert to old regime.

Indication that the proposed street rally was doomed to fail emerged Sunday at the end of the joint meeting of the NLC and TUC where both agreed not to embark on street protest and demonstration in order to avoid the hijacking of the proces by miscreants due to security situation in the Niger Delta in general and Bayelsa in particular.

The council in session however resolved to carry out the mandate of its national secretariats directive to close down all offices, filling stations, markets, the transport sector and stores.

Aside the government offices, filling stations and banks that were shut down for businesses, the transport sector and store owners defied labour stay at home directive and went about their normal activities with the result that there was increase in the volume of traffic on the roads as against the last couple of days when most of the roads were deserted.

Commercial vehicle operators and Okada riders were going about their normal businesses while shops were open to customers.

Civil societies groups relocate to NUJ secretariat

Addressing a news conference at the NUJ secretariat, the civil society groups in the state led by the Vice Chairman Bayelsa chapter of CLO, Engr. Williams-Odonmini Flint said they were forced to retreat to the council premises because the police refused them to go ahead with the protest.

Armed with placards some of which reads, “Repair our refineries and stop corruption in the oil industry”, “Let’s practice true federalism, subsidy must go”, “Why rush in removal of fuel subsidy, what about Petroleum Industry Bill?”, the civil society groups noted with sadness that communities in the creek of Niger Delta were not taken into consideration in the Federal Government palliative scheme.”
