No it's illegal to block the roads. When they caught they should be arrested and charged accordingly. They can practice civil disobedience if they want but there's consequences. They don't own the street so they cant block it.
it is not illegal when politicians block the roads during campaign? it is not illegal when roads are blocked during burials abi? it is not illegal for even the police and sars to block the road collecting 100naira from buses?... if you travel from Lagos to South or East you will see how holdups are caused as a result of 100naira bribes inclusive searching of phones.... they should block the road let all of us enter the street and protest! if e better for 1 e better for all of us...

Courageous clown it's illegal to block the street there's no debating that fact. I dont have an issue with civil disobedience. If the cops arrest you take the charge like a man do it again. You clowns reason like mumus thinking there's no consequences to breaking the law. Even in America you will naturally be charged for obstructing the roads.


Is extrajudicial killings, extortion and abuse of office by SARS upholding the law? If No, how many have been charged?

I was arrested by SARS in PH on trumped up charges, I met a guy in the cell that has been with a bullet wound in his leg for 9months. Believe me you cannot look at that guys leg ur eyes will bleed.

You are partially correct depending on the length of time.

This is the akin to what labour unions do when they are on strike by picketing the factories, banks etc

They should be protesting in front of federal institutions and buildings not disrupting the activities of fellow commoners by blocking streets and major highways. Protests don’t have to be this disruptive to be effective. I’m still immensely impressed by the results achieved so far barring the casualties encountered.

of course not, and look, I totally support the protesting going on right now, 1000%

but that doesn't mean I still shouldn't call out injustice on their part.

A family member spent almost 12 hours on the road this past weekend, then think about others that had emergencies to attend to, it really is not fair, it's not fair at all.

They could protest and leave one lane open, so that there is a slow down of traffic to draw attention to the protest, but not a total halt of traffic.

Not everyone has free time, some people actually have life and death things to do, appointments to keep.

The funny thing is that some of the people they blocked might actually also support the protest, or might have actually joined it at some point. So it's also unfair to them. Imagine you joined the protest on Friday, but on Sunday you were blocked by the same protesters you supported, causing you to miss a flight, an appointment, a hospital visit, e.t.c

They are protesting against the inhumane treatment by Police/SARS and yet they doing the same thing too. The supporters of the protest, that were in that holdup will withdraw their support and next they will declare the protesters enemies.

I really don't think its right to do so guys bearing in mind the fact that where your right stops another persons right begins.
In as much as this matter should be of concern to every Nigerian, we should endeavor to be civil in carrying out our protest.


CAUSION: However, no one is suppose to stop protesters or attack them for any reason or under any guise.

The people that steal tax payers money to send their kids abroad while they subject the system to rot, do they own the money...see ehn...we are sorry if peoples right to movement is tampered with BUT the people fighting the cause are doing it for all of US...including those who think their right to free movement is taken away...it wont last forever, the government will listen eventually and the protesters they see today as their problem will be their heroes.

and what about people that want to exercise their right to freedom of movement?
They can be patient for the protesting youths to make way for them because they will if you are peaceful and understanding about it.


Support the youths, a better Nigeria will reduce pressure from all Nigerians. I don't know why some Nigerians feel that the youths asking for a better Nigeria are fools.....if you are a President today, you will never be President forever. Someday, your relative or friends or grandchildren will experience the negative effect (directly or indirectly) of failed Nigeria you refused to improve cry

What is the significant of blockin memberz of the public from goin to their shops/offices all in the name of protest against SARZ.
SARS has been disbanded, their demand has been met, it wil be better to put an end to the protest.
