he supported same govt in 2015 remember? He's a flip-flopper
Supporting a change in govt isn't the same thing as supporting a govt. Sowore has never supported any incumbent government in Nigeria and no reasonable person can fault him for that cos since as far as I remember, Nigeria has never had a faultless govt. Yes he supported the removal of the previous useless govt which gave room for the arrival of the current guys. But never for one day did he lick the ass of the current govt from the day they resumed.

So what exactly is the flip-flop in a person who has consistently called out bad governance? Maybe he should have worshipped the last govt regardless of their flaws and that would probably have made you appreciate him?

Sowore is a politician not to be trusted,period!
He wants to hijack #endsars protest and turn it to #revolutionnow

I see that he is just fighting for himself.
He was too young then but as a student leader (unilag) has always been against oppression. Just research him a little more.

It's really disappointing to see how the protesters in Abuja treated Sowore. This guy has literally been fighting the government of Nigeria and has tried his best to stir the people to take matters into their hands and protest. He was even locked up for the cause.

He joined politics to try to fight them but yet some Nigerians are against him. They tagged him "just like every other politician". He's not like others. He went in there to fight them. Let's not lose sight of that. He might have made some errors just like everyone of us. But time and time again, he always stood by the people. He never turned on the people but now that he and several others have succeeded in waking the sleeping giant, the people are trying to turn against him.

In as much as you might have something against him, at least, show the man some respect. He has done enough to warrant it and he shouldn't be treated like that.

Sowore, "forgive them for they know not what they do," and don't loose faith in the people. We need you in this fight wether we like it or not. Keep up the good work and don't let this little hiccup deter you. There are a lot more people that support you and will continue to support you. Your service is appreciated.

In as much as we believe GEJ is better than Buhari, his government was flawed and corruption thrived so he believed Buhari who had somewhat of a record for no tolerance would be better but he was wrong and soon realized it like many others. He has since tried to right the wrong and believed the only person he could support was himself since he knows himself better than anyone else and he is confident he has what it takes to tackle the political elites in Nigeria. That is why he went into politics.

Many others have lost, with the way Nigeria was set up, there was absolutely no way he was going to win the last election. He didn't give up. How is he confused?

Sowore cannot be trusted. Have you forgotten what happened in river state. When Sowore and apc merge together to displace wike within 1week. That fraudulent election that period.

Funny enough, wearing off sunshades and sagging of trousers is an offshoot of drug inspired hippy culture. They should have attacked their fire and not smoke.

If he was accepted to the rally, the focus would change and govt may use force which might lead to extra judicial killing and clamping down on posters with DSS or Army.

It was done to avoid any political undertone. He would use the platform to push for revolution which would actually come as the protest persist. You can see the government is finding it hard to pitch the protest to anyone. NO LEADER protest. That's the consensus and awesome strategy.

If Sowore is disgruntled, he should understand what the protest is all about and respect the views of the youth.

Sowore Is As Confused As The Youths. He Was In Support Of Buhari and Called The Government Of Goodluck The Worst but Now He Wants A Revolution Against His Master, that Nigga is Not To Be Trusted

How is it confusing?

Jonathan ran the most corrupt government at that time. They had one of the best windfall when it comes to crude sales but instead prepared the country for hardship.

How do you expect Sowore to stand and watch? He fought GEJ's corruption and when he noticed Buhari was not better, he fought even more. Through the polls and through protest.

What else would a human being do?

Sowore deserves better.

ethicallyright:
No one had seen terrorism in Nigeria pre Jonathan era so it was normal to think that he was a weak president. The Federal Capital Territory was bombed almost everyday. The Police Headquarters, United Nations building etc were all bombed. Boko Haram attacked Kano and other Northern States not even in the North East.

The soldiers were also complaining of inferior weapons and once they even claimed " tactical manoeuvre " when the Boko Haram fighters pursued them away from the Lake Chad. Chibok girls were kidnapped and even the United States were angry with Jonathan.

Sowore and every other person with the interest of Nigeria at heart could not change government through any other means apart from elections.

Everybody did not think about Buhari's economic policies while he was Head of State. They thought about his disciplined nature as even foreign observers have noted that his period as Head of State witnessed the least amount of crimes in Nigeria. He was successful with War against Indiscipline in 1984 and even the most stubborn people were afraid to exhibit simple bad behaviors like jumping queues.

A person with a military background to defeat terrorism and a history of discipline to quench the burning fire of corruption was the prerequisite for the next Nigerian President. Only Buhari fulfilled that qualification then and that was why he became President.

Sowore didn't support Buhari he supported change .


After all said and done we ended up entering into deep trouble while looking for a solution

tell yourself the truth Nigeria have never seen dis kind of upgraded hardship

Jonathan was a give and take situation but

Buhari is a take take and take phenomenal is like d man has sworn to make life very difficult for the common man

God help Us dat we d youth are beginning to see more clearly We need to start sending a strong message to dis Old niggas dat Come 2023 we will not have them at d helm of affairs

He is a good man with good intentions, let's not pretend like someone else is going to become president without becoming a politician. We will still elect a politician at the end of the day. The devil you know is better than the angel you don't know and he is no devil. He has a track record of doing the best to hold the government accountable. I'll take him anyday and anytime over anybody.

Lool. My guy!

They probably didn't follow the protests from the onset that's why they are still seeing Sowore as a saint. The dude is a two-faced fellow.

I remember after he lost the election, Baba didn't say anything until after Bubu's ministerial list came out. Sources claim that he was clamouring for a cabinet appointment. When he saw that there was nothing for him, he started shouting revolution yen yen yen.

He's a typical Nigerian politician to the call.



Oga, Sowore didn't lose the election, Atiku Abubakar did. AAC na party? Honestly, Nigeria runs a two-party system.

As For Buhari everyone Knows That Buhari taking Power Would Be Problem For Us but People Kept Chantin Change but Ended Up In Chains Instead now Look At Where It Brought Us.


If That Woman Wants To Turn Against Buhari now Then She Better Remove That Hijab On Her Head. The People Want A Nigerian With Courage Not A Muslim Nigerian With Courage, put Religion aside.

I Hope She Is What She Claims To Be now.
There is nothing dishonourable about calling out and protesting against bad leadership. This same Sowore criticised IBB, Abacha, OBJ, Yaradua, Yaradua cabal, GEJ and didnt relent for a day to criticise PMB. But somehow, a lot of folks including yourself think he did wrong by criticising GEJ because that eventually led to PMB's emergence? Sorry, you cant fault the man's consistency.

If for instance PMB leaves power today and a worse candidate takes over, does that mean that those criticising PMB today are wrong for doing so? We have to be careful not to make this #EndSARS protest something about pro-GEJ or anti-PMB.

Regarding Aisha, I dont understand you, do you have a problem with her chosen religion or with her hijab? And what has her religion or hijab got to do with her stand?

The only thing I liked about Sowore was that he helped us to remove the corruption-infested regime of Jonathan. But since then, he has lost his way believing the government should have compensated him with an office.

Corruption-infested? Hahaha...

The previous administration was not even one dollar more corrupt than others. The present one is even worse because you have thieves looting money in the name of the president, who is largely oblivious of what's happening around him; or he feigns ignorance.

We entered Big trouble when GEJ wasted the biggest windfall of Crude Sales in the history of the country and got us bankrupt.

GEJ is part of the reason we are suffering today.

The excess flow of dollars hid his excessive incompetence.

He was sinking the country too and Sowore was right to fight him for his wastage.
