End SARS Flag Boy is a protester who, in the aftermath of the 2020 End SARS riots, staged protests by waving Nigerian and End SARS flags from prominent positions like bridges, tall buildings and the top of trucks.

In recent months he has changed his online usernames to Obi Flag Boy and he now waves Labour Party and Peter Obi flags from prominent positions.

@ObiFlagboy narrating the brutality he suffered at the hands of thugs along with a number of park officials in Oshodi. We call on the @PoliceNG to investigate this issue and bring the perpetrators to book. Freedom of Association is a right owed to every Nigerian.

Violence of any form should be tolerated in our politics as a Nation. For Democracy to thrive, fear and intimidation cannot be promoted by the ruling party or even an opposition party, regardless of State or Region.

Text of his narration

OK, so we went to Oshodi today for the regular flag movement we usually do every week, like twice a week, so we decided to go to the Oshodi location today.

So, on getting there, while I was moving on the pedestrian with my flag, some group of guys started calling us from the terminal. So and I suspected that they were calling us for something else . . .for something bad. I decided to run.

So unknown to me that they've already captured the camera guy.

So while I was running, I got to the park. There is no way I can escape because the vehicles had to wait for passengers to load before they can move. So that was where I got stuck, then the rest, they came and captured me like a thief. They just carried me.

So luckily, fortunately for me, while we were going we saw a military guy. The military guy was trying to stop them, they couldn't stop. They took us straight to the terminal. The military guy followed us from behind.

So, on getting to the terminal, inside, the chairman immediately took the flag stick, the iron, started wiping us left and right. The other one broke bottle, then the military guy was able to stop the guy that broke the bottle.

So, they even poured fuel on this one (he points at his cameraman), they smashed the phone that was inside his pocket (we see the smashed phone), so if not for the help of the military guy, I don't know, they would have light up the fuel and that would have been a different case.

Hmm thugs vs art activist/campaigner.. did they really want to light him up?

Jesus is our strength

Lagos belongs to Yoruba Nation.
Go fly your flag in Ibo land.

There is nothing like Yoruba nation.What we have is Nigeria.

You people have started.By the time the rest of the country replicates this,you will confine Tinubu's campaign to the SW

I hope their won't be crises when campaign is fully lunched

jerseyboy:
Lagos belongs to Yoruba Nation.
Go fly your flag in Ibo land.

When Igbos leave Lagos you will feel it.

proof.
65% of containers go to the SE

When christmas comes & they leave, Lagos is empty

Your eyes go soon clear , tribal bigot

This op is a very big liar and a thief. Did he use his mouth to tell you he is an end sars protester? Did he tell you he was waving the end Sars flag?

Oh okay, so you urchins want to twist another new accusation to rope in Peter obi and labor party with endsars abi?

YOU HAVE FAILED , show us clear proof that this person you almost killed was the same person waving that flag during endsars or shut up your propagandist mouths

Imagine agbero urchins wanted to lynch a man because he was holding labor party flag in Lagos

After one useless person will come here and be saying that anybody can do campaign in Lagos and nobody will attack them

See who you’re accusing of carrying flag during endsars, he joined twitter just last month august. When was the endsars protest done again?

Yoruba nation will be light to the world.


This is the Ibo fault line taught process. Everything is not about money. It is about language, culture and heritage. The future of Yoruba Nation is a Coastal West African Maritime Power not in Nigeria. Yoruba language will be the language of West Africa commerce and a world language.
Our dreams are different, our destinies not the same and so we must part ways.

This is the ONLY thing Tinube accomplished in Lagos: making it a tout city.
A vote for Tinubu is a vote to make Nigeria a tout country.

They should desist
Or there will be serious reprisal attacks
Every action will attract an opposite reactions and consequences I have warned them

Warned who? kikikiki. I warned you guys that all your ipob terrorist group politics of envy, lies, ignorance, hate and tribal/religious bigotry has reached your hosts and they will protect their son, Asiwaju Tinubu, from you hateful lots.

Nobody can defeat Asiwaju in Lagos, flag or no flag.
If this is true, it is unfortunate that the flag guy became a victim of the resentment you sowed in the minds of your Yoruba hosts.

The election shall be won fair and square in a massive landslide for Asiwaju with or without the resentment you guys sowed in the hearts of the Yoruba.

Not even one LG nor the main LGAs with the highest registered voters that are predominantly Yoruba settlements will be won by any other party like PDP let alone a mushroom party.

So it will extend from the SW all the way to the North. Only SE will go for PDP as usual and SS will be shared between PDP and APC. All these social media hype does not move a needle perhaps in the SE but here in the SW, Asiwaju Tinubu is on the ballot and all the dorminant political, traditional and social structures are with him.

If this foolish boy continues like this,the next time there may be no next time.
You can't be taunting others because they allow you in their region, whilst in your region your proud angels are killling policemen, soldiers and all other uniformed men.

jerseyboy:

Yoruba nation is a propaganda. See how that one is covering his face with the flag.

Neddstark:

What's his offense? Is it his fault Tinubu ran away on independence day? Imagine the candidate of a ruling party not present at such a national event. Buhari will surely teach him a bitter lesson soon.

You are here bragging as if you have monopoly over violence. You will be the first to drop down when what you wish for happens.

At that rally were all tribes in Nigeria. Do anyhow fake ass neddstark and collect wotowoto.

You know the plan, this op plays the ethnic card covertly, like you said they are trying to rope in LP/Obi with endsars. It would fail just like how they tried with the IPOB tag which has failed. If this op is not trying to start a conflict between Obi and fulanis, he tries another one between Obi and Yoruba. Watch his next post it would be between Obi and ijaw etc. The plan is to stop LP/Obi instigating ethnic divisions. Imagine the tag "end SARS flag boy turned to Obi's flag boy". The boy doesn't have a name?

You are not even sure of what you wrote. How can you then convince anyone?

Why didn't you come out on Saturday to talk nonsense?

Dem attack u, and your face still clean like this werey, Dem suppose kill you ni OLORI PELEBE

Nairaland is been degraded by these tribal urchins while the admins watch in silence.

Thugs and thuggery are the the structure they are all talking about..........

It is no longer news that Pitoobi is IPOB project. We are taking records of those supporting him openly. Prison go full after the election.

I hope you condemned the below?

ENDSARS FLAGBOY TURNED TO OBI FLAGBOY ALL OF A SUDDEN.

Nnamdi Kanu told his Igbo brethrens to attack Lagos and Tinubu and they did to the fullest. They burnt several BRT busses, burnt terminals, burnt Lagos state properties which led to the state government losing billions of naira. Nothing tangible was burnt in Anambra and other Eastern states, Lagos bore the consequence of the whole Endsars drama.

All of a sudden, he that carried ENDSARS FLAG that almost destroyed Lagos built by the sweat of our forefathers is now carrying Obi's flag to cause another destruction I guess! He was very luck the beating was minimal.

the youths are coming

they have no manifestos to campaign with apart from their usual old tribalism and tribal card tactics.

But we'll remind them that tribalism won't bring back dollars to at least 400
tribalism won't bring back fuel to 95 naira
tribalism won't send our undergraduates back to school.
tribalism won't fix our security.
tribalism won't develop our economy.

since suffering knows no tribe or religion, since we're suffering together irrespective of our tribe and religion, it's also fair if we get it right together by sending thieves and those who thinks they can rape Nigeria TURN by TURN.
Enough is Enough!!!

2023 will be the youths vs the criminals
it won't be business as usual.

Federal government need to let Lagos State government know that the state belong to everyone. They are running Lagos State like one man state. Have been to so many states, I can see how other political parties do pasted campaign posters, bill board campaign posters. But here in Lagos, is different. If u try it, is either thugs beat u to pulp, or they remove it later and useless signage and advertisement will be giving u excuses if u want to do billboard and if u call them out, they will be bringing stupid reasons. To make d matter worst, all judges in Lagos are under them which makes it easy for them to win cases. Thugs are theirs also.

Yoruba are very civilized people just few cuts and that's all. If he tried this in his native Anambra. UGM would use his head to play football

The truth is that there are areas which you need to be careful of while campaigning. He went too far. You know how oshodi can be too dangerous. Many idle boys looking for a slight opportunity to attack. Those area boys and touts are mostly used alot during the elections by the agberos, agberos are mostly used by light and heavy weather politicians. Each has light and strong cells. If you understand lagos well, that's how it's always be.
OLuomo strong base is oshodi. You went online ranting and threating to fight anyone who oppose you in lagos. You think you are invincible? . We are in an era of viral videos and comments.
While campaigning for your preferred candidate, do it with sense and caution especially in an opposition party strong holds so that they won't use use shine. Oshodi is one of tinubu's strong area courtesy of Olu omo. There are something that needs no explanation. It will happen there and police on ground will look away.

Thank God he didn’t run into the Unknown Gunmen that cook and eat Human Flesh
