BREAKING: Security Agencies Uncover Senator Sponsoring Protests – Wike by Bobloco(op): 8:15pm On Aug 01, 2024
ABUJA: Federal Capital Territory FCT Minister, Ezenwo Nyesom Wike said security agencies in the territory have identified a senator as one of those sponsoring the anti-government protest.


Wike disclosed this shortly after an emergency FCT Security Council meeting Thursday night in Abuja.

According to him, it was discovered that the senator called some security operatives to accompany a truckload of food for the protesters.

He said in due time, relevant agencies would invite the senator for questioning.

The minister who admitted that protests are allowed in a democracy, said the protesters owe it a duty to democracy to respect the court order restricting their activities to the MKO Abiola National Stadium in Abuja.

He said; “We had said before now that we will continue to brief the press as we monitor the protest of people who say they are protesting against bad governance and hunger in the country..

“We believe that this is a democratic government and so we must act according to the rule of law. We also believe that this protesting it is their entitlement so that government can address the issues raised. Obeying the rule of law is obeying court orders.

“We are doing quite a lot to change the lives of the people.

“You are aware of the court order yesterday. The court did not stop protests, it only restricted them to the National Stadium.

“We had come out to say clearly that one of the reasons we appealed against the protest was that we believe some miscreants will hijack the process and cause destruction of property within the FCT. See what happened in some of the states today. Now, look at the loss fo lives. If such a thing happens in the FCT, what do you think people would say? Here we have the international community carrying out their businesses.

“You saw what happened today where some people tried to move into the Eagle Square. Miscreants may not have succeeded in what they wanted to do but we have intelligence that they are coming out tomorrow to destroy property that will lead to loss of lives. The security agencies will not allow that. Every protester, please, go to the MKO Abiola stadium and do your protest. That is what the court said.

“Now we also have intelligence that a senator had to invite some security agencies to lead some of them to go and provide food for the protesters. That is sponsorship. A senator providing food for protesters. At the appropriate time security agencies will invite the senator and find out how you will be sponsoring this kind of thing against the government of the day”, he added

Still focusing on protests instead of addressing the hunger that is driving the protest.
Much like treating headache instead of Malaria.

This is how Tinubu is being shamed as protest continues.

Its okay for APC politicians to violate court orders but when protesters decide to move freely as no to be limited to a spot where their voices won't be heard, you suddenly remember Rule of Law.

A country were the Judiciary has become a complete uselenss and kitchen utensils for the highest bidder...

Una never see anything yet.

This man won't keep quiet and give himself little respect. He talks from both sides of his mouth. Yesterday it's protesters can't protest at eagle square and Abuja. When he saw the daring moves of the protesters to ask rock, he don change mouth.

Wike should have applied the Lagos strategy in Abuja.

On point bro
Some of them even branded the Igbos as coward for not participating in the protest. And my reply was; i like that type of cowardice. The Igbos have shown great zeal & strength for a better country.
When they came out to protest, other tribes led by the Yorubas will blame them for every destruction & looting that occurs.
Now that they've decided to stay away they're now calling them "coward". Honestly,The Igbos likes this type of cowardice oooo, at least their hatred & lips will rest for a awhile on blaming Obi, Ipob or Igbo on the protest & hardship in Nigeria.

This one that has used cream to reset his facial configuration.
What of the governor that joined protesters to Match, does it mean he is also sponsoring the protests?

Wike is greedy and heartless. Everybody will see how matured Sim Fubara handled the protesters in a mature way in Port Harcourt.

Wike would have messed up if found in the same situation.

I urge Nigerians and the young people to be resilient. They should articulate their demands constructively so that the world will at least hear them. Nigerian politicians are very wicked.

Because you weren't the one. Whoever gave them food helped reduce tension but because he took the glory you now twisted it to him being the sponsor.

Imagine what this fella is saying. How foolish Nyesom Wike has not discovered the bandits and terrorists ravaging Abuja and its environs in recent times.

Exactly, since that's the only senator in Abuja, but lolz we all know Wike promised to do everything to chase this women again

Wike should call names...

If he is serious.

Sponsoring food for protesters isn't necessarily supporting them.

The nigerian police also said they will support protesters with water and drinks.

Does this also mean the Nigerian police is sponsoring protests?
