I wonder how all these BMC crews sleep at night, they're so heartless. |
helinues:Shame on you, you have failed woefully. (Singing mockingly), Ekwensu, ifere ga eme gi na uwa a, Ifere ga eme gi, ma gi, ma ndi otu gi o, Ifere ga eme gi. |
Those trying to divide Igbos and Yorubas through propaganda have failed woefully. |
Timewaster:This is a government paid online influencer, nobody should take him serious. |
IPOB was wise not to officially join in the Endsars protest, the government have deployed a lot of heavy propaganda trying to put a wedge between Igbos and Yorubas through propaganda. By God's grace, they have failed. |
The level of heavy gunfire deployed by the police against unarmed youths at Holy trinity junction this afternoon was excessive and needless. This country is just hopeless. |
Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, Thursday said he called President Muhammadu Buhari, to inform him of the killings of # ENDSARS protesters at Lekki Toll Gate, by the Nigerian Army on Tuesday, but was told he was not available. “I made calls to the President twice yesterday but was told he wasn’t in the office. The second time he was said to be at the FEC meeting; I haven’t spoke to him directly but I have reached the Chief of Staff to the President”, he said in an interview with Arise TV. When asked to explain why CCTV at Lekki Toll Gate was removed before the dastardly act, he said: “The cameras removed were not security cameras, it is a laser camera for cars; it picks tags for cars and plate numbers; it is not a security camera; it is an infrared camera; security cameras are still available and that is what we are using for our own investigation. “They did the removal because of curfew. As regards the light LCC put off the light because of the curfew order issued by Lagos State Government. I have never spoken to the owner of the company ( Tinubu’s son), I am very certain their decision was purely a corporate decision. “I will not stop to continue to apologize to Lagosians. Is it possible to make CCTV footage public; Sanwo- Olu agreed to make the phone call public.” Recall that Nigerians have expressed deep emotions over the shooting and perhaps killing of innocent # ENDSARS protesters by soldiers at Lekki. Many International bodies have also lent their voices over what is happening in the country. https://www.vanguardngr.com/2020/10/lekki-attack-i-called-buhari-twice-he-wasnt-available-sanwo-olu-says/ |
ehinmowo:nothing like lies, it's the undiluted truth. By daybreak, hopefully more information would emerge. |
mightyhazel:They opened fire and the protesters fled in all directions, heavy shooting continued. The videos made by the fleeing protesters are already circulating on Whatsapp. I don't know anything yet about the dead and wounded. |
how can i upload the video? |
Rosskii:I just checked your previous posts, you and your paymasters would die in slow and painful manners. |
AskProf:call anybody living in that area to confirm. the shooting started around 8:26. |
BIAFRAisBURIED:Starting from you. You're an imbecilic northern he goat. I ga anwu ajo onwu!!! |
Heavy machine gun fire at the DMGS roundabout Onitsha as soldiers open fire at a peaceful candle lit procession for the victims of the #Endsars protests. How can i upload the video? |
Most Nigerian politicians don't listen to wise council. |
They should target the governor's private properties, the idiot have camped thugs at the government house. |
That's what he gets for justifying governments use of violence against unarmed protesters. Obiano should travel to America as usual and see if he wouldn't get a more horrible treatment. |
Shouldn't they be burning down the resident? |
Nigerian police needs to be totally disbanded, we're protesting police brutality yet they're committing more of such torture and extra judicial killings. |
bigseank:*Who is afraid of the Nigerian Youths Revolution?* Last night the Federal Minister of Information, Alhaji Lai Mohammed was on the National Television, the NTA, ostensibly to educate Nigerians on what the Buhari government has done to pacify the EndSars Nigerian Youths protesters. Maybe due to the weight of the subject or the scare most the government people have received since the protests started, Mr. Lai Mohammed, looked pale and sickly. He was beside himself without his usual gift of sophistry. And he, of course, laboured hard to do justice to the topic. I was not convinced in the least. I do not know about you. During the course of the programme, Alhaji Lai kept repeating the fact that the government had granted all the requests of the protesters and yet they have refused to leave the streets and allow for a free flow of human and vehicular traffic. He even went as far using the unfortunate incident at Osun State involving Governor Gboyega Oyetola as a case study that the protests have been hijacked by what he called, " the enemies of the country". And he, like other highly placed Nigerians and the beneficiaries of the lopsided system Nigeria operates, is frantically looking for the the sponsors of the EndSars Movement. In a note of resignation, Lai Mohammed who eventually occupied a major portion of today's Radio Nigerian news with his preachment on the futility of continuing with the protests, asked, "What do the protesters want?" I will answer him right away. Mr. Lai Mohammed, Nigerian Youths are tired of the system that has made Nigerians fugitives, refugees, and victims of government insensitivity, in their own country. And there are thousands of reasons for such a protest to go on and on. While the problem did not start with the Buhari government but an objective analysis of his administration will reveal a sinister plot of the gradual *Northernization* of the Nigerian Federation. Never in the history of this country has a President been this insensitive to the plight of Nigerians. Nor is there any comparison in our history of the kind of ethnic agenda the Buhari government is a champion of.

*Who is afraid of the Nigerian Youths Revolution?* Last night the Federal Minister of Information, Alhaji Lai Mohammed was on the National Television, the NTA, ostensibly to educate Nigerians on what the Buhari government has done to pacify the EndSars Nigerian Youths protesters. Maybe due to the weight of the subject or the scare most the government people have received since the protests started, Mr. Lai Mohammed, looked pale and sickly. He was beside himself without his usual gift of sophistry. And he, of course, laboured hard to do justice to the topic. I was not convinced in the least. I do not know about you. During the course of the programme, Alhaji Lai kept repeating the fact that the government had granted all the requests of the protesters and yet they have refused to leave the streets and allow for a free flow of human and vehicular traffic. He even went as far using the unfortunate incident at Osun State involving Governor Gboyega Oyetola as a case study that the protests have been hijacked by what he called, " the enemies of the country". And he, like other highly placed Nigerians and the beneficiaries of the lopsided system Nigeria operates, is frantically looking for the the sponsors of the EndSars Movement. In a note of resignation, Lai Mohammed who eventually occupied a major portion of today's Radio Nigerian news with his preachment on the futility of continuing with the protests, asked, "What do the protesters want?" I will answer him right away. Mr. Lai Mohammed, Nigerian Youths are tired of the system that has made Nigerians fugitives, refugees, and victims of government insensitivity, in their own country. And there are thousands of reasons for such a protest to go on and on. While the problem did not start with the Buhari government but an objective analysis of his administration will reveal a sinister plot of the gradual *Northernization* of the Nigerian Federation. Never in the history of this country has a President been this insensitive to the plight of Nigerians. Nor is there any comparison in our history of the kind of ethnic agenda the Buhari government is a champion of.

*Who is afraid of the Nigerian Youths Revolution?* Last night the Federal Minister of Information, Alhaji Lai Mohammed was on the National Television, the NTA, ostensibly to educate Nigerians on what the Buhari government has done to pacify the EndSars Nigerian Youths protesters. Maybe due to the weight of the subject or the scare most the government people have received since the protests started, Mr. Lai Mohammed, looked pale and sickly. He was beside himself without his usual gift of sophistry. And he, of course, laboured hard to do justice to the topic. I was not convinced in the least. I do not know about you. During the course of the programme, Alhaji Lai kept repeating the fact that the government had granted all the requests of the protesters and yet they have refused to leave the streets and allow for a free flow of human and vehicular traffic. He even went as far using the unfortunate incident at Osun State involving Governor Gboyega Oyetola as a case study that the protests have been hijacked by what he called, " the enemies of the country". And he, like other highly placed Nigerians and the beneficiaries of the lopsided system Nigeria operates, is frantically looking for the the sponsors of the EndSars Movement. In a note of resignation, Lai Mohammed who eventually occupied a major portion of today's Radio Nigerian news with his preachment on the futility of continuing with the protests, asked, "What do the protesters want?" I will answer him right away. Mr. Lai Mohammed, Nigerian Youths are tired of the system that has made Nigerians fugitives, refugees, and victims of government insensitivity, in their own country. And there are thousands of reasons for such a protest to go on and on. While the problem did not start with the Buhari government but an objective analysis of his administration will reveal a sinister plot of the gradual *Northernization* of the Nigerian Federation. Never in the history of this country has a President been this insensitive to the plight of Nigerians.

Drops Momoh, replaces him with Sanusi Garba ***As President seeks passage of revised 2020 budget for FCT By Henry Umoru ABUJA- PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari has written to the Senate, seeking for the screening and confirmation of of Engr. Sanusi Garba as Executive Chairman of the Nigeria Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC). In this regard and if confirmed by the Senate, Garba will be replacing Professor James Momoh from Edo State, South South. Also to be confirmed are: Dr. Musiliu Olalekan Oseni as Vice Chairman; and Aisha Mahmud as Commissioner. The request was contained in a letter dated 15th October, 2020, and read on the floor during plenary by the President of the Senate, Senator Ahmad Lawan. According to the President, the request was made pursuant to Sections 34 and 40(1) of the Electricity Power Sector Reform Act. In a separate letter, President Buhari sought the confirmation for the appointment of the Chairman and Members of the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission Tribunal. The letter read: “In accordance with the provision of Section 40(2) of the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission Act, 2018, I write to forward for the confirmation by the Senate, the following seven (7) nominees as Chairman and members of the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission Tribunal.” The nominees appointed by the President include: Mrs. Saratu Mama Shafi (Chairman – North Central); George Chukwuma Mbonu (South East); Barr. Thomas E. Okosun (South South); Umar Dauda Duhu (North East); Mr. Ibrahim El-Yakubu (North West); Mrs. Sola Salako Ajulo (South West); and Kenneth Tersoo Gyado (North Central). In a related development, the President in a third letter requested for the confirmation of Chief Onyemuche Nnamani as a Member of the Police Service Commission. The letter dated 16th October, 2020, reads: “In compliance with Section 154(1) of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended), I hereby forward for confirmation by the Senate, the appointment of Chief Onyemuche Nnamani from South East as a member of the Police Service Commission, to complete his predecessor’s tenure.” According to the President, Nnamani’s appointment “is due to the demise of Dr. Nkemka O. Jombo-Ofo, member representing the South East region.” Meanwhile, the Senate yesterday, received for consideration and approval, the Federal Capital Territory revised budget for the 2020 fiscal year. The transmission of the budget was accompanied by a letter written by President Muhammadu Buhari and read on the floor by the Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, during plenary. The letter read “Pursuant to Sections 121 – 122 and 299 of the 1999 Constitution (as amended), I forward herewith the Revised 2020 Statutory Appropriation of the Federal Capital Territory Administration, Abuja for the kind consideration and passage by the Senate.” “These revised estimates of revenue and expenditure are proposed in response to the lower revenues and higher personnel costs projected for the Federal Capital Territory Administration in the 2020 fiscal year, due to the Coronavirus Pandemic, as well as the decline in global, and domestic economic performance.” https://www.vanguardngr.com/2020/10/buhari-writes-senate-seeks-confirmation-of-garba-as-nerc-chairman-others/ |
*Who is afraid of the Nigerian Youths Revolution?* Last night the Federal Minister of Information, Alhaji Lai Mohammed was on the National Television, the NTA, ostensibly to educate Nigerians on what the Buhari government has done to pacify the EndSars Nigerian Youths protesters.

He was beside himself without his usual gift of sophistry. And he, of course, laboured hard to do justice to the topic. I was not convinced in the least. I do not know about you. During the course of the programme, Alhaji Lai kept repeating the fact that the government had granted all the requests of the protesters and yet they have refused to leave the streets and allow for a free flow of human and vehicular traffic. He even went as far using the unfortunate incident at Osun State involving Governor Gboyega Oyetola as a case study that the protests have been hijacked by what he called, " the enemies of the country". And he, like other highly placed Nigerians and the beneficiaries of the lopsided system Nigeria operates, is frantically looking for the the sponsors of the EndSars Movement. In a note of resignation, Lai Mohammed who eventually occupied a major portion of today's Radio Nigerian news with his preachment on the futility of continuing with the protests, asked, "What do the protesters want?"

Nigerian Youths want besides a holistic *Police Reform*, *Judicial Reform* *A People's Constitution* *Electoral Reform* *Civil Service Reform* *Access to opportunities* *End to Quota System* *Reduction in the Cost of Governance* *Health Sector Reform* *Education Sector Reform* *End to the State of Origin Requirement* *Transparency in Government business,* among others. If President Buhari cannot guarantee the fulfilment of these demands in record time, then let him resign and go home. In the meantime, *Let the Protests go on. Nigeria belongs to the Youths!* * *GoldFacts...the truth as it is* |
