gidgiddy:The context of the scenario is so different. Your analogy is so faulty. A set of people carrying a foreign flag on home soil while demanding that the government of the day be toppled is what?! ![]() Let me paint an analogy for you to understand. Some Igbos in a country called Biafra decide to start waving the flag of Iraq or Saudi Arabia while demanding that the Biafran government is toppled because the want everyone to start practicing shari'a will be treated like your Olympics analogy so much that they get a pat on the back by the Biafra government?! I just can't stop laughing? 😂 Lol 😂 😂 😂 😂

Softmirror:If someone is saying that a government should toppled, that is a totally different thing. I'm talking about waving of foreign flag, how is that an act of treason? Or is the waving of flag what is going to topple government? |

gidgiddy:I am glad you can now see the difference. |

Softmirror:His analogy is fine. Regardless of the occasion, flying the flag of a country that Nigeria recognises and also has diplomatic relations with has never been considered a crime, let alone treason. If the Chief of Defence had said that those calling for a coup were committing treason then that would make sense. Waving another country's flag is not a crime. |

Ngozi123:You mean those waving the Russian flag were doing so inorder to foster a more lasting diplomatic relationship between Nigeria and Russia? ![]() |

Ngozi123:There is nothing to read. I am not the type that you can manipulate. |

Softmirror:Your reading comprehension skills are lacking. If you want to continue the way you're going then fine — ignorance is bliss. I won't bother to reply you any more as you don't seem the type who will admit when he's wrong. |
