Ogun State Government -OGSG @OGSG_Official
Court Restricts #EndBadGovernance Protesters in Ogun
The Ogun State High Court on Wednesday ordered the sponsors of the #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria protests to limit their activities to four locations in the state.
The court also restricted the time frame of the protests to between 8 am and 5 pm.
Granting an application moved by the State's Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Oluwasina Ogungbade (SAN), Justice O. Ogunfowora directed that all protests under the #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria slogan or any other slogan from 1 August 2024 to 10 August 2024 must be limited in place and time.

Again, the courts have no such power because the Constitution clearly states what should take place instead.

RoyalUc:
That's Nigeria for you.

It is a thing of shame. And this is the same government Nigerians expert to tackle bribery and corruption that pervades the system and nation?

■ No be my mouth you go hear am

No, please let's call it what it is and stop pushing forward this shame against Nigerians from their own government.

Tinubu Govt Hired Us For Rally To Say 'No To Protests,’ Abandoned Us Later With No Water, Food Or Money –Pro-APC Campaigner https://saharareporters.com/2024/07/31/tinubu-govt-hired-us-rally-say-no-protests-abandoned-us-later-no-water-food-or-money-pro

Corpers just received their alawee... It's still 33k. Prices of other commodities have even gone up again... Pepsosent123 toothpaste that we bought for 1000 two weeks ago is now 1200, BAMA Mayonise medium size is 2k as against 1,700 few weeks ago, is it detergent, bathing soup, groundnut oil, red oil, everything has added money again recently.. you're here posting audio talks... Please before you post this 419 president promises, go to the market to confirm..
Please note that it wasn't an impulse buying o.. or some will say it is because of the protest... I went to the market myself on Monday.... I just asked my wife to confirm the price of rice today since we were seeing 40k everywhere on social media

All na Audio naw!

Na for North you go get palliative and give away. For South, you have to pay full price.

No mention of the massive scale of bribery and corruption campaign that he has embarked on? I wonder how much of Nigeria's money he spent bribing people to go out to protest against the protest.

christejames:
Every worker deserves their pay... Tinubu, pay them

You mean their bribe?

mrvitalis:
The masses on the road hailing him was what I was talking about

So, the Oba couldn't have equally bribed the people? I don't understand this one-dimensional thought of yours at all..

mrvitalis:
That's a lie unless u want to lie to yourself
Didn't you see tinubu when he went to oba of Lagos?
Oga Nigerians are not ready

Are you insinuating that Oba of Lagos never chop bribe? Isn't that the same Oba who , during the EndSars protest had his house raided by youths in his neighborhood where they found palliatives meant for the people as well as medication, stored up in there?

mrvitalis:
See if you want to kill Nigerian politicians let people boo them on the road, let people ignore them on the road
As long as people hail them on the streets they are doing fine
That's there is key that's why they pay to have people hail them

The people who hail them are merely the handful who have been bribed by them to do so though. Bribery does not buy a good name but favors.

This is sad! People rejoice as their very government embarks on a large-scale bribery and corruption campaign to stop a protest of the people. 🤐🤐🤐🤐🤐🤐🤐

mrvitalis:
∆ Nothing this politicians love more than a good name

Nah! They don't care about that at all. If they did, they would not steal even a Kobo to begin with.

Rather than a good name, what they know they need in order to remain in power i.e. in position to steal some more are arse lickers and those are usually bought by way of favors done to just a handful of those in their constituencies.

pazienza:
Ndiigbo have already made it obvious that we will not be partaking in the upcoming national protests.
Igbo bodies like Ohaneze Ndiigbo and Ohaneze Youth Council have all come forward to back this stance of no protest in Igboland.

This thread aims to give Igbos a glimpse of how events would unfold if they are stupid enough to join the protest.

Nonsense! This thread is rather angled by the opinion of yet another nonentity pretending to speak on behalf of a people who never elected him, kinda like the Lagospedia guy who was recently exposed.

lexylaw09:
Although it is yet to be ascertained who is behind the shootings, the State Police spokesman, Henry Okoye, said the command suspects the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
“They are pure cowards. The criminals, suspected to be members of the proscribed IPOB/ESN, adopted a guerrilla-like strategy where they come out from their enclaves, unleash a surprise attack and go back into hiding. However, concerted efforts are underway by security agencies to apprehend them,” he said.

This is all in a bid to discourage the youths in the area from coming out to protest. Notice who the potential players are yet again?

DevilsEqual:
∆ I tagged u to one thread, I'm sure u saw it
Ekpa dey claim responsibility but u dey talk say na FG him dey work for

So what if he claimed responsibility? I don't follow your reasoning at all? Will the South Easterners come out to protest the situation in the South East after that? Don't you see that the Government isn't even making half of the effort it has been making in other regions in the South East -- not a lot of money being spent to placate the youths or foods being sent that way. Why do you think that is?

Eagleways:
∆ anti-protest protest was not hijacked. Oga, who really hijack anti government protests ?
Send that your message to those

1. Hijacked by whom, phantoms? Aren't they the very ones who have been throwing threats around claiming they would deal with those who come out in favor of the protest against bad governance?

During the EndSars, there are numerous videos evidence to show that it was the supposed anti-protest crowed that caused much of the mayhem that ensued. And yes, they were, just like even now, funded by your government who has been indicted both in Nigerian court and ECOWAS courts for the damage, destruction and killings that took place at the time.

mrvitalis:
Do you blame them?
Have u been near a politician?
If you see where elders are Asslicking them u won't believe it
Yes most of them are ignorant majority have no idea what to do.. They are begging for solutions... People with solutions are in the private sector

Begging for which solutions? They don't care for solutions since they are ever seeking ways to bilk Nigerians out of those money.

Ironbull:
∆ Who is your uncle Farotimi? Pesin wey hin village disowned dey yarn shit as usual.
He is a bastard noo one knows him in his village he is rejected son.
Farotimi that was sporting a total stranger to become Lagos Governor yet Bianca ojukwu and Betty AKeti were chased away from contesting for poitical post by same people who want to impose Vivour on Lagosian. Who does that
Farotimi pls go to hell. Today is Aug 1st we are still waiting to see the burning down of Nigeria your evil gang promised its 8.43am now we are waiting patiently.
F u c k Farotimi...

Today is July 31st! You sure say you dey alright?

jkpbestseries:
Who gave them this idea self

Na see finish, q general lack of respect for the people and their plight.

helinues:
Truly, illiteracy na big disease
If hardship is no global, why do some people want to emulate the protest in Kenya for Nigeria?
They just like to shift the goal post anyhow

Hardship is not global at all. Kenya's inflation rate as of June 2024 is 4.6% which is nothing to be compared to Nigeria's 34% inflation rate. Nigerians wish to emulate Kenya because the suffering and smiling has become fking unbearable for them.

Timmi:
∆ The IGP only offer his advise. You are free to take to the street to protest but remember you cannot block roads, access to offices, etc because you will be trespassing on other people’s right to free movement. Your freedom stops where or when you step on my own toes.

Agberos do exactly that, block roads, every day in Lagos, and I have never read of the IGP giving them the same or similar suggestions. The many protesters protesting against the protest -- something that only happens in a fked up world by the way --- have been blocking roads with recourse. The recent invocation of Oro Blocked Road for many for a period of 10 days straight. So what exactly is this advice for? .

whatisthetruth:
I no sure say na for lagos oo

I saw the video stating this in fact took place in Ikorodu. The Lagos Agbero courts said nothing of these pro-government protesters in its unconstitutional ruling earlier today.

∆ Keep comparing a baby of two years and a man of fifty years. Is it logical?

I see I have been talking to a tincan head. Abeg waka pass me!

LegendHero:
Coalition of Igbo Political and Social-Cultural Groups, Lagos State chapter, on Tuesday, distanced itself from the planned nationwide protests scheduled to commence on August 1, 2024, urging Igbo traders across the state to stay home and not open their businesses on days slated for the protest to avoid being attacked.
Organizers of the protests had slated to hold the protest from August 1-10, 2024 to voice their concern about the current hardships pervading the country.
The coalition made up of 16 different Igbo groups in Lagos, gave this stand at a press conference, which took place at the Airport Hotel, Ikeja, noting that while there is no dispute that there is hardship in the country, quickly affirmed that the current economic downturn was not limited to Nigeria and not caused by President Bola Tinubu’s administration.

The moment they start regurgitating the same lines used by the Tinubu-nutjobs you are alll but sure money don touch their hands.

How much is now the question since the government of the day discriminates as it goes about with its massive bribery and corruption campaign to stop the protest. I heard some groups were paid a mere Naira 1500 not to protest. While some others were paid between N5000 and N10,000. Niger Delta youths, 10,000 of them were each promised a monthly stipend of about Naira 50,000 for six months, whereas some Imams and maybe some pastors were handed Naira 16 million each. Student group heads were given about Naira 750,000, and so on. Then you have the free bags of rice handed out for free in the northern states while in the Southern states, it was announced that 50kg bags of rice would be sold at Naira 40,000 We are yet to confirm this isn't yet another audio promise.

From the much I have gathered, it seems that those who would choose not to protest are not having it any better than those who choose to go out there to vent their anger and frustration.

Chicagograduate:
Does government obeys court?

For Nigeria? Or course they don't!

JASONjnr:
∆Inibeghe and Falana didn't discuss about this on the supposed virtual meeting with the IGP, to also tell the IGP to order the pro-Govt to protest in a confined area as well...

It would have been great if they had mentioned that.

Blue3k:
Do you guys think SR is publishing fake news or did the Federal government lie about banning escorts for VIPs?

But, there are videos of politicians having police detail. Wike for instance. Abi no be police dey wear that uniform again?

Vision101:
∆ So to you the police should have enough manpower to cover every street in Nigeria.

Do you think that in order countries where effective law enforcement is a given, that it is so because police manpower covers every street and corner in those countries?

Philipponzaghi:
This guy is just a menace. How can you claim responsibility for such a wicked act? This is why the Southeast keeps facing challenges, with people like him causing chaos.

Stop yammering! The presence of military forces, going as far as to bomb citizens abodes is more to blame for the problems in the South East, no thanks to their equally corrupt politicians whose hands are bloodied with the deaths of citizens. It is to that keg of gun powder that this fat boy in Finland now adds his own arseholery to top off the mix.

The problems were not created by him. They are only made worse by presence of elements such as himself..

whatisthetruth:
na wa ooo, na pesin papas be dis?
Dey came out to protest against protest to end bad governance

Shey na for Lagos be this? The court no see these ones restrict to a particular park or hall in Lagos?

nairalandkachy1:
My deductions are:
1. The IGP assured that security will be provided to protesters who are gathered at the venues that have been communicated to the IGP and CPs.
2. The police has not taken threats made by government sponsored thugs against peaceful protesters seriously.
3. The police has accepted that there is nothing that can stop the protest from taking place.
4. The IGP said that the military will not be deployed during the protests, but that they may be invited if there’s violence that the police cannot control.
5. I am encouraging people to write to the CPs in the various States and notify them of the places they want to converge.
6. Rallies and marches should be done in a coordinated manner.
History will vindicate the just.

That number 2 there clearly reveals this is all for show.

Gboom:
If you are based in Lagos, I wish you protest outside the restricted area and receive the serious bearing of ya life

Please waka pass me abeg!
