Pictured below are photos of Buhari,El-rufai,John Oyegun,Ogbonnaya Onu and others protesting against Goodluck Jonathan and PDP in 2014.According to them,the Peoples Democratic Party, Goodluck Jonathan led Federal Government were playing politics with Boko Haram.

The protest tagged ‘Salvation Rally’, was aimed at drawing global attention to what the APC described as deliberate hijack of the Nigeria police and other security agencies by the ruling PDP.

Do you think Tubaba is right or wrong to be part of nationwide protest?

1paint of garri is 800
Dollar is 500
Kerosene that poor men use is over 300
Disel is up
Prices are up everywhere. Inflation is killing the country, all time high at almost 18%
Foreign direct investment dropped to ten year all time low
No light either.
People are hungry.
Girls are prostituting to survive
Our men have turned to beggars and armed robbers to survive.
Yet they are building vice president gate house for 250 million naira.
Politicians are just a bunch of thieves. APC AND PDP


THAT PROTEST MUST HOLD AND ANYONE WHO DO SENT LIKE IT SHOULD GO AND DIE.

Karma ..

OP that wasn't a protest, it was an APC rally. The rally was about APC being the saviour and not about Jonathan.

Beside, it was held during a period to prepare the party for 2015 general election.

Please, do know the distinction between a rally and a protest.


BTW: Let everyone exercise his/her right. Those that wish to protest should go ahead. Those that wish to attend the pro-Buhari solidarity rally should proceed. Those of us that are doing "siddon look" should be allowed space. Let every man do what is right in his own eyes.

Karma is a Nigerian

Rally: A demonstration; an event where people gather together to protest for or against a given cause.

Let me just leave that there.

No No No.
That wasn't protest of any kind but a rally after Buhari won the primary election in APC,
I am not saying they can't do it but this one is not one of them!

Rally or protest all is about passing a message to the government. You were quick to correct the op, sometimes I wonder if you are really in PDP. SMH.

Nice try but you missed it.

Rally: People coming together to cheer a common cause.

Protest: People coming together to demonstrate against a cause/institution.


The #IStandWithBuhari group is proposing a rally, the Tuface group is planning a protest.

Thanks to nairaland where we can educate ourselves.Attached here is a dictionary definition of rally.So I am %100 right.Didn't you even see people marching on the road on some of the pics?

That was definitely a procession and moreover it wasn't a closed-door session and this falls under the same freedom of lawful assembly hence no difference

While protest is about sending a strong message to government, rally is not necessarily about sending message to government.

If I organise a pro-KOWA rally today, it has no business with the APC/Buhari directly, it is about sending a pro KoWA message to the public.

sometimes I wonder if you are really in PDP. SMH.

Keep wondering until you turn to wanderer

When making comparison, it is important that you pay attention to details Sir!

PROTEST:
[noun proh-test; verb pr uh- test , proh -test]
noun
an expression or declaration of objection, disapproval, or dissent, often in opposition to something a person is powerless to prevent or avoid:
a protest against increased taxation
http://www.dictionary.com/browse/protest

Meaning, protest is usually Anti-policy or anti-government, while rally is usually pro-cause.

You may say that protests are the negative side of the rally coin, but you can't call rallies to be protests.

Thank you

Attached here are the various dictionary definitions of a rally.Take a good look at it and get back to me

compare the definition with that of protest that I provided earlier (or check other sources).

PROTEST: Against

RALLY: Pro (but could be against)


Political Campaigns= RALLY

Opposition to a Policy/government= Protest.


I guess I shall draw the curtain here...

You desperately want Federal job but you won't get it

Should we bet.

So Mr. Tonye going by ur definitions and reasons, we must all support d govt before we can b allowed to gather abi? Rally is to support d govt but we are not in support so why gag us? I guess d Occupy Ojota and other parts of Nigeria was also rally abi? Some of U are jus pathetic

The #IStandWithBuhari group is proposing a rally, the Tuface group is planning a protest.

What's your argument? Didn't you see Protest clearly in the definition of Rally?
Ok you're right, the dictionary is wrong.

As u rally could be pro or against.When it is against what is it called?As u can see the rally we are talking about here is salvation rally which is against PDP-led govt.So what is the rally called?

The salvation rally was not primarily against GEJ but for APC as a party and her aspirants.

Political parties and groups do rallies to draw support for their cause. TAN held rallies for GEJ and NOT protests, PDP held political rallies to draw support for PDP and not protest for(makes no sense) PDP.

Though a pro-APC rally has an indirect effect on the other group, it still doesn't qualify as calling against the other group.

When GTB places advert for GTB, it doesn't qualify to be anti-Diamond Bank ad despite the fact that the decision to bank with GTB will have indirect effect on Diamond Bank.


And check the caption of the pix, it is termed APC Rally not anti GEJ Protest.
