NPF should go ahead and prosecute the idiots. If they burnt anything on uniform, any miscreant should go to jail as well.

The same measure should be used to pay the public back. Arrest more and send them to jail where they belong.
how are you sure they are the ones

You're arresting the hungry and angry youths and doing nothing about the Lekki massacred youths and their killers? Nigeria is an abode of clowns

That is nice. Let them face the full extent of the law for their actions if they are found guilty!

Nobody in his right senses can never opposed the protest at the beginning whether u are APC PDD or whatever party u belongs to but some of us backed out when it started becoming violent.

I advised some people too to stop wen the hoodlumsms hijjakecd the protest but some people stop while some labeled me as a coward. I even av one self accllaimed intelligent female friends in this forum that blocked me cos she was unable to see her beyond nose.

My premises was that,
If the genuine cause we are fighting for is giving some miscreants the chance to trive, den why can't we sit back abit so that the evil and bad people can be properly apphrended!

A good fighter always wait to fight another one

A Yoruba adage says maja masa lafinmo akinkoju okunrin meaning that a great warrior is the one that fight with brain cos he knows when to run continue or discontinue a battle

Anyway, let us hope the dead ones during this struggle will get justice

I hope Lagos can recover from this grossly damages as soon as possible.

Shalom!

May God not destroy us because of the fools among us.
To say "peaceful protest can't bring anything good to us shows the school of thought you are from. Eyan Buhari. If only you knew what this protest has changed for better. Things will never be the same. The only real lost are the lives we lost. Material things can always be restocked, rebuilt and refurbished!

Reports of people going about their normal businesses that were arrested as still fresh. One was kidnapped by SARS officers yesterday even with doctor's letter that he had a medical issue and needed to come to hospital for treatement/injection.

This is the same police brutality they've been protesting against for the past few days. Nigeria can never be better. cheesy
Kidnapped by SARS officers? Haba! Fear God na! Anything like SARS still in Nigeria

Obviously, you're one of the locusts eating where they did not plant in Nigeria. You want things to remain the way they were. Victory is in the future, not in the past.

Generation woke, generation independence, you messed with the wrong generation, bla bla bla. Sega links saw it coming and japa. But as usual stupid Twitter youths came for his head

So what is your damn point...?? Yes its unfortunate there had to be deaths and destruction.. But have u ever seen real change without sacrifices? There are some things that will never just come to you freely or change for a people easily without blood, destruction and chaos. I don't know if that's going to be the inevitable case for Nigeria for things to really change with the kind of leaders we have but that's the reality of things.. There is also no way with all that has happened so far during these protests, some certain level of positive change will not have been triggered especially with the way the police conducts itself with the masses and also the urgency with which politicians tackle pressing issues which affects the masses becos they now know what it can lead to. Anyways this is Nigeria, things hardly change but i hope what happened in the past few days wouldnt be in total vain. The point i am trying to make here is some things will never come to you on a plater of gold. A nation where there is persistent injustices, oppression and widening gap between the rich and poor shouldn't expect to see much peace, progress or stability..

Thank you for fighting for the rights of my children and my grandchildren.

I appreciate your sacrifice and I'm sure well-meaning Nigerians will pool resources to fast-track your release.

#ENDSARS PROTEST: LAGOS EVALUATES FILES OF 229 ARRESTED FOR ARSON, MURDER, STEALING, OTHERS

...To Prosecute those with Prima Facie Case

The Lagos State Ministry of Justice will be prosecuting suspects who allegedly took advantage of the #EndSARS protests to destroy and loot public and private property in different parts of the State.

Lagos State Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Mr. Moyosore Onigbanjo, SAN, who disclosed this today, called on Lagosians to maintain peace, law and order in their respective communities, pledging the commitment of the Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu-led administration to uphold the rule of law at all times.

He revealed that the State Director of Public Prosecution, Mrs. Olayinka Adeyemi has gone round relevant Police formations with a team of Prosecutors to evaluate files of those arrested by the police with a view to determining those that have prima facie case made against them.

“229 suspects were arrested by the Police for various criminal offenses ranging from arson, murder, stealing, malicious damage of property and assault before and after the Statewide curfew imposed by the Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu to restore law and order in Lagos”, the Commissioner stated.

He averred that after the conclusion of the evaluation exercise, those who have cases to answer will be arraigned before the Courts on Monday while others will be released.
Recall that some hoodlums hijacked the peaceful protest of youths against brutality by operatives of the disbanded Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) and other police personnel tagged #EndSARS to wreak havoc and disturb the peace in the State.

The bolded is the type of idiocy from the so-called elite class of Nigeria that prompted the #EndSars protest. How could these jackasses determine who is Arsonist or Murderer simply examining the police file. There is no visual evidence or eyewitness evidence or substantive evidence even to warrant an arrest.
Re: EndSARS: Police Arrests 229 Arsonists, Hoodlums In Lagos by kroxkontry(m): 8:13am On Oct 25, 2020
My question is why are you so quick to persecute those arrested?

Why are you not so quick to attend to the need if the citizens?

Why are you not quick to arrest the Officers declared wanted and persecutes....

Government should release those people as the are the cause of the reasons for the looting... If not there will be a new phase of protest and this time it won't be funny.... We are tired of this dead country....who doesn't care about the interest of it's citizens.

Why can't you persecute those that kept covid-19 palliative who added to the suffering of Nigerian?

We need change

When people call Yorubas cowards, they get angry.

The behaviour of their key men show that they are cowardly.

For instance they, are all scared of facing Hausa Fulanis who have tormented the. but turn their jealousy on igbos and are ready to loot their properties.

The Oba of lagos wanted igbos out of Lagos, Tinubu and his wife wanted the same, Adeyinka Grandson wants the same. In fact, all Yorubas are ready to loot.

A reasonable government will warn their people against looting but no surprises that the Yoruba government has done nothing.

Igbos all over the south west must take measures to protect their families and their properties from cowardly thieves.

And we are back to same old circle. Nigeria dont have structures that can facilitate good governance.
the #Endsars protest was a step in the right directions but the government that could meet those demands are not yet in the hem of affair thereby end in chaos. 2023 is our last CHANCE.
