You actually think it is normal and proper to have the receipt of all items you own on your person at all times? Was there any report that your particular brand of laptop had been reported missing hence the search and demand for a receipt to prove ownership? Stop blaming the victims, the police needs to be educated and stop taking advantage of innocent Nigerians.

SmartPolician:
Calm down

SARS once stopped me because I didn't have my laptop receipt.

You see, sometimes, the issue of SARS has to do with pride from us the civilians. They wanted to search me, and I allowed them.

Why should I be worried when I had to skeleton in my closet?

One of the officers insisted on taking my laptop to the station because I didn't have the receipt.

I asked him the station they were taking it to so that I could present my receipt later and pick up my computer.

The guy gave me back my laptop at once and asked me to appreciate them with something.

I gave him #1k

You see, sometimes, you need to understand that these guys are doing their job. You don't have to be boastful or arrogant when they interrogate you.

Like their boss once said, the way SARS treats you chiefly depends on how you respond to their questions.

I concur because I have had a first-hand experience.

CilicMarin:
So blocking the roads and preventing people from going to source for a living is peaceful to you?

That is the nature of public protests because it draws the attention of the government to take real action not just platitudes! Na for inside house or just one corner you expect protest to hold effectively?

CilicMarin:
I think anybody still protesting after all the govt has done...should be treated as a criminal...

To protest is no crime especially when protesters tending peaceful and there is no damage to body or property so why should they be treated as criminals? It is people like you that gove politicians in power the unnecessary impetus to display disrespect and high-handed crassness when dealing with members of the public!

sweetrace:
Why don’t you live by your own words and give people the benefit of doubt. You can start by getting off your high horse and stop talking in such a patronizing way. The guy in the picture looks unkempt. Period! We usually address people based on the impression they give. When we do get to know them, out impressions may change. As for Hitler, it is true that history describes him as being nondescript in appearance. But his words were that of a murderous mad man. That would have sent me running. So please get off your high horse. There is nothing about that guy in this picture that will make me associate with him. If I should meet him on a day he appears clean and sane, then I will associate with him.

Like I said, be charitable or remain silent and keep your judgmental impressions to yourself until there's a damned good justification!

I just hope the Senate will have some sense because it is clear that Buhari and whoever is pulling his strings are completely mad!

It should even become one of the protest points now..

sweetrace:
Haba! Let’s be truthful. If I see him on the road, I will go the other way. I will do this in the least obvious way. It is not his tattoos, or waist beads or even hairstyle. It is the crazy look in his eyes. He looks like an addict on the verge of madness. I read where someone said he is very kind. With the way he looks, I certainly don’t want to find out.

And there lies the problem! While no one is asking you to find out because you probably do not have the requisite qualifications, the least you can be is charitable and positive as long as he has not attacked you in any way or been violent towards you.

Hitler with all his inhuman crimes and heartlessness towards the Jews, what was his appearance like? All these demonic politicians we have that rob us blind every day, how do they look? Yet knowing how dirty they are you will still hail and support the one that will 'favour' you!

Bottom line, give everyone the benefit of doubt at least at first instance otherwise remain silent!

Stop profiling! Quit stereotyping!
If he had been shot I'm sure you'd justify it with a full complement of stupidity! Some of you are just annoyingly quick to judge and condemn as if his appearance is punishable by summary execution! Meanwhile na una wicked pass!

KingAzubuike:
Wasted generation. Most of these protesters are criminals. This one is no doubt one of them.

2cribz:
Yellow pant. Bloody cultist. See his tatoed body

Essence20:
This one is clearly one of those SARS was created for in the first place.

wizzyrich:
This issue is as simple as ABC, send all the SARS to Borno and other northern states that needs them. They need SARS more than we do !

And the officers they post there as SARS should be strictly of Northern extraction!

ContentedK:
how many youths you wan deal with at a time?, so you don’t know that the political class are very scared seeing how the youths which constitutes of larger population figure are demonstrating over this issue?... power truly belongs to the common man on the street if you understand

Them soldiers didn't have orders to fire, there's no religious undertone plus they're in Lagos where there's just too much awareness and exposure.

Is it not the same situation the same soldiers faced in Kaduna that they murdered over 1000 people because they're are Shiites? Even went to their homes the next day to murder innocent people including women and children just because they obstructed the Chief of Army Staff - Mr Buratai?

Very stupid country we live in!

SilverNorGold:
I think the policeman opened part of Francis head to put small sense inside. It's possible they were mocking the police officers after the news.. The policeman cannot just attack him unprovoked.

Assuming he was actually mocking them, is mockery now a crime whose punishment is summary battery and injury? Some of you are just so dense!

Angrykidd:


Apt.
All those joining celebrities to #Endsars,hope you all are ready for the repercussions..The spike in criminality and armed robbery that will follow.
Remember these celebrities can afford quality security as they live in secure areas.
SARS shouldn't be ended,they should be reformed.
The fact that criminals like Slawormir who always glorifies cyber criminality and fraud is vehemently supporting death to SARS should tell you what's to come if this eventually happens.
Don't just follow the crowd and join the trend,THINK..
Armed robbers fear these SARS operatives.
Ending them will cause more harm than good.

If it was armed robbers they were strictly after as expected even by the name SARS, no one will complain. However they will go and raid football centres, attack and arbitrarily detain young people on the streets going about their business for what? Stop vehicles on the road and demand to search phones failure of which an innocent person is branded a criminal and accused falsely! The torture and hell faced by citizens in their cells nko? Is it the job of the police under any name to demand the phones of citizens or judge them by their appearance without more?

The unnecessary deaths by sheep wickedness and careless of SARS agents is too much! How many people need to die before they #EndSARS#! All the many reforms even by Osinbajo and crew what has happened? You people should be objective!

Oshiomole has no business going to Ondo in the first place. He has no role in the APC anymore as he's no longer party Chairman neither is he from Ondo state. He would just stick out like a sore thumb.

Jossyroyal1:
Hmmm.

It depends. They can be very wicked if they smell foul too

Then that isn't wickedness, it becomes being practical, strict or careful as may be applicable. Who wants/likes to be a victim of fraud or foul play?

Lipscomb:
You don't know that you are not a kid anymore do you think what this useless people doing to southern Nigeria is good.

To me I'm not surprised at this lopsided appointment There's a ministry that other tribes can't be found except fulani and Hausa people.

We have been doing slave in our own country, and you are here laughing people.

It is those Southerners that like to form objective Buhari supporters that are the most disgusting! This is one of the outcomes of their contrived ignorance and right here their fellow supporter who is the OP is laughing gleefully because it furthers their northern cause while stupid Southern useful idiots are left with nothing.

If an Igbo person raises issues now they will forget that the South which they are part of has a common enemy!

BuhariAdvocate:
Our people from southern Nigeria don't like anything uniform

Exactly what is DSS uniform? Was the recruitment done openly and Southerners did not apply?

Fortune118005:
P.s: some of my facts might not be true or my stats considered rubbish,but it's my opinion and it should be respected,
And also am not a student of government so I might not be right at some points, tnx.

How can you deliberately post or propagate untruths and expect them to be respected just because you feel you are entitled to an opinion? If you must speak to a nation of people about an ideology they hold dear, the least you can do is come with unimpeachable facts and also a teachable mind so you get schooled from responses you are likely to get.

ThatFairGuy1:
Tell that to the Anambrans in the hands of The Ngiges.

We've never complained to you in Yorubaland, leave us. We prefer our type of godfatherism to that of Anambra

Ngige? Are you sleeping or what?

Simplyleo:
Saharapob on the loose again.

Whete is the multibillion naira road?

Are you really that dull or are you just pretending? Is there any road that is constructed in Nigeria that doesn't run into billions especially where they are even commissioned by the governor or president?

Besides, shouldn't you be more concerned that a road, no matter the cost of construction, is already collapsed and becoming unmotorable within just 2 years of construction? I wonder how some of you reason really.

Na wa o! O soft target fa..chai!

SilverNorGold:
It's because the constitution doesn't have that provision and even forbids it. No secession clause.

Ipob should join hands with the law makers to do the right thing.

Please note that we Patriots are not against Ipob. We are only against illegality.

God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

You say you are against illegality yet here you are saying they are cowards afraid of or refusing competition. When did that become illegal?

SilverNorGold:
No, IPOB is scared of Nigeria for reasons best known to the group.

But I suspect it has to do with over entitlement of some bunch of lazy youth. Youth who are afraid of competing with other competitive youth. Youth seeking shortcut to success.

You claim the Fulanis and the Yorubas are dominating. Brother tell me, do they have two heads? You attack successful Igbo men for being pro-Nigeria. Brother, tell me, do they have two heads?

Why is IPOB so cowardly? Why can't they compete with other youth? Why are they scared?

This is a question you should be asking Nnamdi Kanu. It's better than peddling cheap rumors and propaganda every now and then.

Your assumption that IPOB is scared to compete is predicated on a very wrong n flawed premise. However, assuming without conceding that your position is correct, why is it a crime to decide to stay away from the so called competition and forge one's own part separate from others?

Is it an act of terrorism to demand at least a formal discussion of terms of existence or outright separation? Are the destinies of all ethnic nations in Nigeria inexorably tied together? If an arrangement does not suit you is it not best to walk away than continue in an unworkable situation?

On a final note, it is absolutely dishonest to claim IPOB disseminated the information that Iyamu has now debunked. You know very well that the Edo elections have absolutely no relationship with IPOB but you deliberately weave them in just for whatever reason. You may need to reevaluate who the actual coward is.

Take the multinational company position and grow especially since it is staff and not contract position

SilverNorGold:
Too bad, IPOB, a proscribed group, has decided to unleash all manner of propaganda to paint the good people of Nigeria, who still have faith in Nigeria, bad.

But in the end, they are terrorists. This is what terrorists do. But the long arm of the law will soon catch up with them.

God bless President Buhari.
God bless Vice President Osinbajo.
God bless Nigerians.
God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Haa! Na so una fear IPOB reach? You are even more scared of IPOB than fulani herdsmen and boko haram who are globally recognized terrorists! Is it the lily-livered law that promotes and encourages BH and fulani herdsmen/bandits that has long arms to catch up with an organization that has no business with Edo elections?

Simplyleo:
Bursted.

Ipob miscreants and lies are like lamidi cownu and olosho.

IPOB for Benin matter too? Take it easy with the bellyaching otherwise see you see market o

tesppidd:
The bolded is a myth by you wailers to paint Buhari like the worst President in the world.

It is a lie from the very depth of the pit of hell.

-Looting
-Embezzlement
-Money laundering
-Electoral malpractice
-Bribery

These are all a million times worse than nepotism.

Do you not realise that once you allow nepotism/ethnic favouritism, all of these other vices would have automatic approval and government support because the head is already compromised by that fundamental crime called nepotism? Stop and think, all these things you itemized are varying forms of corruption and the root is nepotism, clannishness and refusal or inability to take action most likely because your brothers and cronies are major culprits!

sreamsense:
You people have started with rubbish analysis now. Why didn't you talk about this rubbish before election started if really you were sure ? Starting analysis after market has closed.

When people dey do football match analysis after the game you dey complain like this abi na body just dey pepper you? How can there be an analysis of what hasn't happened?

Ajibel:
Who's Woke? Wike?

Or you're referring to Ambode?

He referred to Wike. I guess it's auto correct that changed it to woke

Simplyleo:
Bandits killed this, fulani herdsmen killed that, killing killing and more killing everywhere, everyday, yet some people are being paid with tax payers money for security of lives and property.

Yet, taxes on this, taxes on that, more taxes everywhere and everyday. And they don't fail in collection of these taxes, removal of subsidies, high electricity bills and many more.

Pls, what exactly is the problem with this country? As it stands now, everyone is responsible for his or her security, yet we are being taxed for these services. What is the problem?

If this happened in the South or East will you ask what the problem is or you will quickly prescribe that Army and DSS should go and burn down the area and massacre residents as show of force? Hypocrisy everywhere!

DSS will not gather like the idiots they are to raid and massacre the so called bandits in Katsina for killing an officer o! If it is young men and women peacefully protesting or gathered in a public school in the East to pray and meet/discuss what concerns them they will appear like stupid cowards to commit murder in cold blood because those people are unarmed.

LandMann:
PDP's penchant for always doing everything to promote corruption, hatred and division along religious and ethnic lines is quite repulsive.

They have the resources to fight a code seeking to penalize hate speech and fake news so as to weaken governance in Nigeria, and so that they can continue spreading all manner of fake news and hate speech through all the channels they have, but they can't devote same resources to pushing for a law that prescribes death penalty or life imprisonment with no option of pardon for public officials found guilty of corruption.

They keep reminding Nigerians daily of how corrupt APC is but they will never take a decisive step to end the corruption... They are mostly only interested in sewing hatred in the minds of Nigerians against the other party so that they can get the opportunity to grab power and continue the looting from where APC stopped.

Meanwhile, APC as a party has become all talk and no action. Buhari is supposed to be championing the fight against corruption head on because that's the only legacy he can leave behind, as he's already old and will soon join his ancestors... this he can do by asking the AGF to forward a bill to the national assembly seeking to strengthen the law and effect MAXIMUM punishment on public officials found guilty of corruption.

Unfortunately, he is either too docile, or surrounded by too many looters who will rather see Nigeria die a slow and painful death through their reckless looting than witness any meaningful progress in this geographical space.

APC needs to stop playing to the gallery... We see beyond the facade and fake fight against corruption.

PDP should equally up their game and tactics of opposition politics... They will continue to remain the second choice for majority of Nigerian voters if they continue this their nonsensical politics of looting and aiding corruption.

A society where corruption thrives can never witness any meaningful progress.

Thank you

@bold: It's more likely that he's the chief looting shareholder providing a viable looting platform for his cohorts, that's why he's absolutely comfortable with the status quo and even now demands that they defend his government at all costs.

And somehow some idiots will come to justify this menace and say all is well just because, Buhari and ethnic nonsense! Such a shame...

MrBrownJay1:
- a locked up containers is not airtight
- if indeed burned down to ashes, then you will still have the remnant of the metallic part of these card readers..., that certainly can't evaporate into thin air.

The operative phrase in this regard is 'locked up'. If the containers were properly locked, are the materials contained within (card readers) capable of self-combustion without external incendiary material introduced?
