No south western rely on your votes to be president in the first place, always try to separate issues from sentiment and mischievous complaints by uncultured individual. Is she the only ibo in TVC, infact, I see more ibo faces on TVC than Yorubas. Once you are given opportunity you protect your interest and the interest of the company. That lady excesses could lead to closure of TVC if not checked.

What she did was not excess at all. Did you read tbe story at OP?

I dont think tho that the sack was ethnically motivated. It was just a show of crass power from the elites protecting their interests. Tinubu should have known better. But then again, who is surprised by the conduct of the elites of this country

Stop spewing lame and pathetic rubbish, stick to the issue, this is about a woman that was hired by the same so called Tinubu that you hypocrites hate so much, she made a personal decision to walk off her job and she suffered the consequence.

They'll sack her for the same offence at CNN or any credible establishment on the surface of the earth.

Stick to the issue and what she did on the job and the reason why she got sacked.

Do not be sillllly.

If a black journalist walks out of CNN cos a white bigot called Blacks Nigggar or any other racial slur CNN CANNOT and Would not sack that journalist. It will even be seen as an act of honourable defiance on the part of the journalist. Anything apart from that and the journalist eould sue their ass. It is the bigot who will be called out for the low life that he is.

The Oba of Lagos behaved as a low life i spurning that nonsense against an entire ethnic group (apologies to the people of Lagos Island but your King diminished himself and his revered seat, and should be called out as such)

Na wa o!!!!

Special Adviser to President Muhammadu Buhari on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina has revealed that he has been receiving curses from Nigerians through phone calls and text messages over a false report that he advised his principal to shun protesters.

Apparently, under pressure, Adesina stated in an article he wrote titled: “An Enemy of the People’ published on Thursday evening.

Adesina denied that he advised President Buhari for whatever reasons on the End SARS protesters, but said an online platform falsely accused him that he told Buhari to “ignore the protests and not give in to the demands of ‘Twitter warriors’.


He explained that his telephone numbers were posted on social media, thereby, making people to reach out to him with curses.

Adesina said a long time interview he granted Channels Television regarding the “Revolution Now”, was twisted to make it look like a fresh interview against End SARS protest, a situation that made more attacks on him ferocious.

According to him, relief came his way when Channels Television gave a clarification.


In his article: “Those who wanted to, believe the television station. A large number chose not to, and bombarded my phone lines with curses, expletives, and messages from the pit of hell. Well, if anybody chooses to belong to that nether region, it’s a matter of choice.

NEWS: Amaechi clears air on approving waiver for foreign vessels operators
“Talking about the bombardment of my phone lines, it had begun on Sunday. A hateful mind had published my two numbers on Twitter, urging people to troll me. They called till the phone batteries went dead. Mum was the word from me

Hehehehehe......

Plzz who has these numbers. I have plenty credit wey i no know how to use

#Boboclat

TecM0:
Well their placards carry that, and the demands they submitted carries that too

.

Well, it has gone beyond that since.

The youths are reclaiming their country(future( from the grasp of mindless political elites

And, it is organic

TecM0:





This is bad... But truth is the youths own this protest and don't want a Political figure to take away it's motive and essence

It's no a call for Revolution, just a end for SARS and Police brutality

Nnamdi Kanu and his Ipob people used wisdom for the first time by keeping away



.

So you still think this is just about SARS or police brutality??

APC has reduced themselves to: " yes we agree that we are criminals, but PDP was criminals 1st". And they do so shamelessly!!!

Were they not supposed to provide change? Was that not why they were elected, at least in 2015? Was that not what they promised?

Bucha fooools. No wonder the country is falling apart on their watch.

We are coming for ALL of them: PDP, APC et al

Bomboiy:
Lol people dey really enjoy this protest.

No, they are not "enjoying" it.

They are just tired and feedup

Arrewa:
you people can never succeed in diving the Hausafulanis. Arewa is strongly united!

The north is not just about Hausa and Fulanis we have many other tribes in the north! Arewa is strongly united!

We have Hausa, Fulani, babur, kanuri, Nupe, zuru shuwa Arab, and many other tribes.

We identify with Arewa!

Hausa and Fulanis have been marrying each other for over 500yrs now!

There's no family that have no Hausa or fulani blood!

You will never hear of Hausafulani Muslims and Christians killing each other!

You'll never hear of Kanuri Muslims and Christians killing each other.

You'll never hear of Fulanis and hausas fighting and killing each other.

Bandits and Bokoharam attack both Muslim, Christians, Fulanis and Hausas.

Northern unity is what the south need!

What of Biroms, Tivs, Jukuns, Yorubas, Igbiras etc, are they not part of Arewa too??

babatunji36117:
Excerpts will be attached here.

Plzz do

This should be the clarion call.

Lets restructure if we must survive as one.

Anybody still fighting this truth is sick in the head!!!

Kaolaniyi:
If care is not taken the protest will crumble our economy further after still trying to rise up again from covid 19 palava we should trade with caution I support #end protest now and I also support to re protest after giving the government to make the wrong right and if their is no changes to our demand we should reprotest but let leave the street to fight for another day I pray may all our effort in the cause of good governance should not be vain

Do you have an economy before?

Sometimes, i wonder if some of you are Nigerians or not

Rugaria:
This government has itself to blame if things really spiral out of control.. Buhari was given enough time and patience. All he does is to lazy around in the presidential Vila. It's wrong to turn the Villa into an old peoples home. The country is facing huge challenges. High unemployment rate, insurgency here and there, infastructural decay, unproductive economy, ethnic bickering an all that! But what do we get? A highly polarising president who seem to enjoy stoking the fire while fanning the embers of corruption and tribalism. Buhari really needs to go back to Daurra. He is not up to the job. He lacks both the intelligence and temperament to run an inclusive government capable of stoping Nigeria from sliding off the Cliff. I say this because from the way things re going, this country has a detiny with serious violent conflicts in the future if Buhari continues with his annoying style of sectional and unproductive governance..

I hope you did not vote for him twice sha

meetme01:
If he was accepted to the rally, the focus would change and govt may use force which might lead to extra judicial killing and clamping down on posters with DSS or Army.

It was done to avoid any political undertone. He would use the platform to push for revolution which would actually come as the protest persist. You can see the government is finding it hard to pitch the protest to anyone. NO LEADER protest. That's the consensus and awesome strategy.

If Sowore is disgruntled, he should understand what the protest is all about and respect the views of the youth.

You are smart

My Brother, enemies of Buhari are actually Friends of Nigeria

Cyberterror:
HURIWA should tell us the APC card serial number belonging to Lauretta Onochie or quietly return the money PDP paid them to do this dirty job.

PDP paid HURIWA?

The depths some of you will go!!!

Smdh

helinues:
Democracy in almost all the countries are just the same...

Biden wasn't really my preferred choice cos I hate his hypocrisy about BLM...

Same Biden that sent American soldiers to untimely death in unnecessary war in Middle East..

But you see that Trump heh, the man is just egocentric and confused by contradicting himself about Covid as an hoax

You cannot "hate" Trump and love Buhari.
Nor love Trump and hate Buhari.

Confused peeps on NL

Arrewa:
This is the most criminally underrated governor in Nigeria.

I take it that you are against the protest and what it might mean for Nigeria

Okoroawusa:
Go n remove her nah!

Do you have any conscience left?

Or that has been totally obliterated in that shameless partisanship you that has consumed you?

Who will in his right senses noy see the absurdity in appointing an openly fundamentalist political supporter as a member of a supposedly Independent electoral commission.
I actually thought it was fake news when i 1st saw it, cos it is just plain stupppid

This is same Buhari who some persons have been told us recently cos of Edo that is serious about Electoral reforms

He is appointing a notoriously partisan as a commissioner in INEC!!!

PS: let me go and check if this is even true cos it is quite unbelievable

seunmsg:
The level of dishonesty of some of you is very appalling. What has Buhari got to do with Wike’s tyrannical directive against peaceful protest? Have we not been protesting since last week peacefully in some parts of the country without the president issuing any order to prevent the protest?


I don’t understand the need to immediately jump out and defend Wike if you have not mixed up your priorities with politics. This is about Wike and no one else. Governors like Sanwoolu, Okowa and Makinde have been managing the protest without showing their tyrannical sides. We must collectively condemn Wike for this and not give him a free pass because he’s the poster boy governor of PDP. The Endsars movement is beyond the usual APC/PDP squabbles. Rise above party affiliation for once in your life.

My brother, this is going beyond #endSARS.

I hope you know that? And hope you will continue to repeat this "admonition" when the time comes??

StaffofOrayan:
Fvck wike
We keep screaming there is no pdp/apc
There are just people protecting a rotten system and hoping to pass such system to their lackeys

God bless You.

These politicians from both parties are the ENEMIES.

We will no longer be divided by parties, or religion, or ethnicity etc.

They fear our UNITY above everything.

And that is what these protests have shown them: the people, the oppressed, are beginning to be united. And that scares the hell outa them.

It was really stuppid for Wike to say he has "banned" the protest in Rivers?

Who gave him such powers. Later, he will be the loudest in critizising Buhari if Buhari had made such a statement.

These politicians, from both parties, have been playing with our heads cos we are not UNITED.
And that is what they are most afraid of: our UNITY.

For me, something huge, that has been gathering steam for decades now, is happening in Nigeria right now. If the Elites and the People have "sense", they will harvest and direct it for the total improvement of the country. If not, well....

shiwex:
Nigerians should go straight to the point. This protests has more to do than police brutality. It is about demanding an end to corruption, good governance, improve infrastructure, end to mismanaging public funds etc.......no light, no water, high cost of living, no good health facilities, no roads, massive looting by political elites and most importantly an efficient proactive president and not just a sign post that can even come out and give press conferences.

NIGERIANS AWAKE

Some persons have still not realized this yet?

Officialgarri:
In weeks or maybe days to come, twitter will be on fire due to revelations that will be made about how some influencers were paid to continue the protest even when there's nothing to protest against.

People who are paid just to ensure there is tension, thereby endangering the lives of the senseless people who have been killed and will be killed in the course of this protest are not better than Boko Haram.

Did you just say there is nothing to protest against?

Are you sure you have been to Nigeria recently. Are you sure you are Nigerian??

Very interesting!!

Even if you dont agree with all what they said here, it is interesting and very significant.

Something is happening in this nation currently....

garfield1:
Aketi doing what oshio failed to do in edo

I dont understand why this guy is allowed to do this here and the Mods condone it by not doing anything

He is OPENLY advocating rigging and violence on Nairaland and he does so consistently in every election. If someone calls him a foool now, theu will be banned. But the person calling for the killing of others in an open forum is left alone

Where are we really going to in this nation?

@ seun, lalasticlala, mynd44

garfield1:
Aketi trying to deflate pdp votes.good strategy

You just Despicable!!!

And to think that you are still young!

Punks!!!

Guyman02:
SARS don't operate here, Hisbah is doing the same job. Moreover, no Hausa man will give bribe to a police, if you arrest them they will be the ones to request that you take them to the cell where police will be feeding them free. They are not in a hurry to meet up with any appointment, it can be suspended unlike you guys in the South.
Moreover, the Emir will order any CP to his palace if any illegal arrest is made in his domain and ask for immediate release of the victim. Any attempt to resist, the Emir will call the IGP and that CP will be redeployed to take care of Police dogs the next day in Sambisa forest.
The reality is that we don't know much about SARS here and we can't protest against people who operate mostly in southern cities killing and maiming youths. Most people here who have never traveled to the South have never see SARS operating in their lives

Interesting.....

Ehiscotch:
So should I take what he said at face value or in full and proper context.

Sometimes make we dey try dey logical, sir.

You know say the other recession na dip in oil prices and bombing of refineries na im cause am. You know say we don been dey plan to borrow to pay salaries and governors been no fit pay salary prior to 2015. How recession no go happen?

If you reduce the income of a family drastically and you expect that family to maintain the same financial status overnight, baba, then you no dey yarn truth.

The earlier we start to tell ourselves the truth, the better e go be for us.

What of the recession when he was military head of state?
What caused this one too?

And explain also why him on all 3 occasions?

Ehiscotch:
True. I do not disagree that there has long been herder-farmer clashes all over the country right from time; and I also agree that the government should do more to address the issue but are we going to overlook the strides the government has taken in agriculture?

Don't you know the basic concept of economics? We do not have enough forex to give to importers of basic consumption in which we have the capacity to produce, who does that?

How do you open borders for every kind of good to penetrate the market and shortchange your farmers?

How do people get motivated to go back to agriculture when the cannot meet up to the market prices?

You guys don't actually have any single economic knowledge but you would be filling Nairaland with nonsense, crude and backward knowledge.

How can we get to the status of a developing nation when we import all we consume?

It defies even the most basic and crude concept of economic development.

Mr Man, plzz stop "preaching"

The man you quoted also said that this country has entered 3 recessions under just one man- Buhari. Was it Covid that caused it those 3 times?
