CelebritiesRe: EndSARS: Tory Lanez Speaks On Police Brutality In Nigeria by Litmus: 2:12pm On Oct 21, 2020
Black music personalities and Celebrities generally have no place in determining political polices. Their use by the embellishment in the various nations where black presence is significant has contributed to blacks languishing at the bottom of every socioeconomic indicator and the bottom of all race based stratification.

The ghettoisation of blacks and the relegating of blacks to Class – lower class at that – and not a Race of people inclusive of differing classes is largely their fault.

In addition to all that the warning voices have stated, I’d like to add that these acts are damaging the concept of Protest Movement in Nigeria. For the next decade, the public will not support future protests.

The protests in USA and Hong Kong are totally different from the protest in Nigeria. I will tell you why, Nigeria protest is that of the group (the youth), majority of whom constitute the population of the country, wanting a change in the system. America protest is a minority group (blacks are just 14% of the population in USA) wanting to fight centuries of institutionalized racism in the country. Don't forget that white people have not seen blacks as their equals yet based on the poor level of development in Africa. Even the white people that are not racist have shown supports for white supremacy by voting for Trump. Black people are widely discriminated against everywhere in the world, so the white supremacists can use that card against African Americans. China is a communist one-party state right from time, even though the Chinese people will want to give lesser control to their autocratic government at the moment, they will not give in to the demands of Hong Kong protesters because they see the protest as a ploy by China foes: USA, UK and the rest of Western worlds; to destabilize the country.

Back to the main point, Nigerian youths can win this battle against the cabals if they are just united. In no time before the northern youths see the truth in this movement and also turn against their corrupt leaders. No country can stand the wrath of its youth population if they can just speak in one voice. Youths are over 80% of the population of this country, the youths in military are also tired of the current Nigerian system. Just wait and see, it will be like a short dream to you.
See, you don’t even understand that the foundations of democracy were built on neo liberal principles advocating for Minorities. Minority rights, contrary to that which laypeople take away from the democratic concept of majority rule, are the very purpose of democracy.

Clap, clap, come on people, we are Nigerians, resilient and strong. Let's rebuild people, community and relations. Reform the Police, which was the original aim.
PoliticsRe: Seven Shot As Another Police Station Is Razed In Lagos by Litmus: 12:15pm On Oct 21, 2020
Looking on the bright side, new and better police stations can now be built to replace the burned down ones. Hopefully those given responsibility for replacing the Police station, Prisons and other state buildings destroyed, do so informed by lessons learned from the ease with which the rioting public accessed them.

Hope the police stations are built to a formal looking and standardized style, differentiating them from ordinary homes.

These street protests are necessary to bring about real reforms to Nigerian system, because this would help restructure the system and produce brand new crops of leaders. The youths just need to stick to their plans and always come out to protest enmass, not in few groups, and they will win as they are already winning.

Whish there was a rolling eyes emoticon.

Look, mister, you have given none of this any thought, it is clear to read in your words. There’s a radio presenter, James O’Brian, on one of UK’s radio stations, LBC, who is fund of stating something that I have found true and useful. Try it yourself. He says this: “Write it down” ;

Context:

Things can seem clever, fine and sensible in your head and you may even verbalize your beliefs in eloquent, convincing, language; however, the test of its veracity is articulating it on paper or in text. Write it down and flaws will become apparent; you’ll see how the concepts you’ve held dear and nourished for so long collapse and become putrid mulch.

With all due respect you sound incredibly naïve and exceptionally ignorant. In addition, your statements are incredibly annoying because property and lives are being lost with scope for greater losses. Do yourself a favor, and the rest of us the same indirectly. Write down how what you and the likes of you are doing is going to end well and create the Nigeria that fulfills the dreams of majority of Nigerians not just you and you mates.

Overthrow the government through the ballot box not through violent street protests. See, if you cause the downfall of the democratically elected government on the streets, like this, you will set a Presidence. Meaning, you create a new culture, and your next president will almost certainly be forced out of office by violent street protests organised by the opposition.

The Orangeburg Massacre occurred on the night of February 8, 1968, when a civil rights protest at South Carolina State University (SC State) turned deadly after highway patrolmen opened fire on about 200 unarmed black student protestors. Three young men were shot and killed, and 28 people were wounded. The event became known as the Orangeburg Massacre and is one of the most violent episodes of the civil rights movement, yet it remains one of the least

Kent State shootings

Twenty-eight National Guard soldiers fired approximately 67 rounds over a period of 13 seconds, killing four students and wounding nine others. Students Allison Beth Krause, 19, Jeffrey Glenn Miller, 20, Sandra Lee Scheuer, 20, and William Knox Schroeder, 19, were killed and nine others were injured, one of whom suffered permanent paralysis. All died at the scene except Schroeder, who was pronounced dead at Robinson Memorial Hospital in nearby Ravenna shortly afterward.

It has happened before and would again if US protestors take to the street as violently as reports coming in portray Nigerian protesters currently.And America is the world’s leading nation. I doubt any third world nation would tolerate the level of anarchy being reported.

See hypocrisy. If Americans were looting and destroying like the Nigerian mobs are, Trump or Hillary would call on the services of the National Guards and protestors would be shot. Hell, Trump wanted to deploy the US Army to quell Black Lives Matter protests that was nowhere near as destructive as the one going on in Nigeria.

Nigeria desperately needs police reform and the protests to end SARS, on balance, makes sense. However, trying to bring down democratically elected government through violent protest instead of ballot box, especially when a large part of the Nation, rightly or wrongly, supports that government, is wrong. This can only lead to anarchy and who could reasonably blame government supporters. Even trump supported far-right groups confronting Black Lives matter. Well meaning protestors need to put away the placards for now and return to the streets maybe in a month’s time. During this protest break, watch and assess what government does in honouring promises made.

Nigerians and false sense of how the world works, lol. Nigerians please take care of Nigeria and stop destroying your country informed by a false sense of your Special Suffering. Anyway, protest going on in Nigeria is just one of many. Currently there are fierce protests going on in Bolivia, Haiti, Azerbaijan-Armenia conflict, Anti-government rallies held across Belarus, Violent Protests Chile tec.

they are for identification during emergencies such as blood transfusion. For identifying the dead, and other similar purposes. It's not a necklace. Some wear it inside, other wear it on their boots.
Necklaces are also worn inside shirt . Wearing those tags outside shirt does not redact purpose. You’d be more convincing arguing west invented dog tags, therefore do as the west does and wear dog tags inside shirt. Or, they are more liable to be torn off and lost wearing them outside shirt.
