Atiku Abubakar Reacts To #EndSARS Campaign On Twitter by Wesporting: 12:33pm On Dec 03, 2017
Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, has reacted to the #EndSars campaign thread on Twitter.
The former Vice President said that the Everyday, we encourage our young people to become entrepreneurs. Buying a laptop to earn a living shouldn’t attract harassment.

He tweeted:


"The arbitrary harassment of young Nigerians by Police (who should be protecting them) has no place in a democratic society.

The #EndSARS protest shows Nigerian youth are upset and the matter needs urgent attention.

Everyday, we encourage our young people to become entrepreneurs. Buying a laptop to earn a living shouldn’t attract harassment.

I commend our young people for protesting these injustices peacefully online, and encourage the IG of @PoliceNG to take these complaints seriously.

I also urge the National Assembly to look into these complaints, and address the human rights issues. Reforms are urgently needed."

Atiku seems to be crossing all 't's and doting all 'i's towards 2019 elections.
If Twitter comments would make a good politician, the Nigerian Senate would have been the best in the world: Ben Bruce, Shehu Sanni, Bukola Saraki etc.

My problem with Atiku is that I can't trust him.
I trusted Buhari but his government disappoint me.
I just can't bring myself to trust Atiku enough to vote for him at all.

I am sure Buhari doesn't have the brain capacity to understand what is happening, let alone react.

Campaign has started. This man means business.

Wouldn't be surprised when the number of followers of his social media handles increase in the coming months.

Politicians now recognise the need to harness what the internet and technology affords them - as the recent case studies of Obama (2008, 2012), Buhari (2015) and Trump (2016) - suggest.

Hate or like Atiku, one thing about him is he is a care free, easy-going man. If he had wicked revenge mind like Buhari, he would have strangled Obasanjo for what he did to him. Atiku is will not witch-hunt any body, he will not tolerate abuse of power to witch hunt anyone. Under his government respect of rule of law will be exemplary. Remember Atiku is not just a politician, he is an entrepreneur, industrialist and most importantly an educator....not an Islamic educator, A WESTERN UNIVERSITY EDUCATOR!

Atiku, you have millions of Nigerians behind you. Make sure you pick a technocract as VP; Prof. Charles Soludo, Ben bruce or Dr. Olusegun Olutoyin Aganga

Atiku is a hypocrite who will say anything the masses want to hear just to get into power.


Reminds me of all the numerous promises I made to Sherifatu.
I agreed to all her senseless demands because I wanted to 'enter the place'. Well, I haven't taken her calls after I signed the attendance register.

I am no fan of Atiku yet but he seems to have a grasp of what ills this nation and solutions to it.He has my vote only if he visits USA before the presidential election (assuming he gets the PDP ticket).

This man will just be tweeting from one corner of Aso Rock once he gets there. That's all he hopes to achieve. I pity those campaigning for him.

I like what he is doing. He is reaching out. And as for those who keep saying they can't trust him enough to vote for him, what has a trusted Buhari achieved? Has the standard of living not worsen under Buhari?

I always say this. Nigeria doesn't need a 'saint' to turn things around. Sometimes, you need someone who understands and has been part of the murky waters of politics in Nigeria to fix her problems.

I may give him my vote. Buhari has taken us to the lowest of lows.

What do we have to lose?!

SARS should be made a unit of the Police.

The fact that it has become a cancer to the whole police force shows its aim has been defeated.

Scrap the damn unit and give them hoe and cutlass, make them go farm.

Well, I accept the message but not the messenger. You appear to be on the side of the people because of election. I have never in my life had confidence in any political leader like I had for Buhari. There was nothing on earth he didn't say just as Atiku is saying now. And the end result is to do even worse of what he condemn in GEJ government. By the way, What difference did Atiku forgot to make during their tenure that he now want to effect?

I can never trust any Nigeria politicians.
