If it had been better than this, people would still complain, it is not the speech, it is about the personality

Even as at that, there should have been somebody that could have acted as a leader. You cannot engaged yourself in a protest that is not organized. Believe me honestly, that protests were not well organized.


Don’t blame anyone...you don’t plan and execute this sort of event like that.

Tensions, emotions, negatives thoughts, frustrations and acrimony were high.

Everyone was feeling the heat and we only need just that trigger to set off. It doesn’t matter what sort of trigger, the strength of the ignition or where it’s coming from....Nigeria masses just needed that little spark to explode.

Don’t blame anyone bro. I still give mad props and respect to Falz and Runtown...the likes of Aisha just cashed in and out. The true heroes are Falz, Runtown and everyone that genuinely came out to protest.

The villains are not just SARS and the Nigeria police. The villains include the military, our corrupt politicians, Dino Melaye included and the thieves and looters who infiltrated thw crowd of genuine people to wreck havoc. Shame on them.

I have to mention Dino as I personally find him insufferable. He is fake, knows when and how to press our mumu buttons because he enjoys the security that permits him to flaunt his pimped up rides and ostentatiously decorated living rooms while flashing his teeth and laughing his arse on our faces after embezzling public fund.

Obviously Buhari can never write a speech like this. He is old so I don't see his signature on it. And as an dictator, he will never admit to being wrong or show weakness. He's a natural tyrant

Nigeria missed a great chance to force change. Protests of this sort are not just organized haphazardly like it was done with the #EndSars. I blame the organizers.

After getting the attention of the whole world, the organizers failed to clearly define a motive. Eventually, everyone tried to take credit not knowing they were dealing with politicians.

The cause of the protest failed when the IGP cleverly isolated Davido and later leaked a video of the singer denying ever being part of the protests. That was the day that the politicians poured water on the protest. The thugs were sent to cause mayhem and eventually, some state sponsored hoodlums were made to do all the bad things that later got blamed on the protests.

What the politicians have succeeded in doing is that they have carved a bad name for the protests and nobody wants to be associated with it again. A failed revolution is very dangerous because this generation may not get this chance ever again.

The organizers failed big time. They never realized that the game that they have started is a 3D chess and it can only be played when you use your head and not emotions.

I weep for this country

You are a with a lot of wisdom.

codedguy1:
My take is that you cannot say/give what you don't have.

If this was the speech and it came from a sincere place then we wouldn't be in this mess in the first place because it would be assumed we have reasonable people at the helm.

The truth is this govt cannot be reasonable either in their actions or what they say. They have demonstrated it time and time again.

When there are people like Adesina, Garba and Onochie speaking on behalf of the presidency how would anyone expect anything reasonable from them.

This speech can only be given by a govt that has been reasonable from time and we can't say same about this govt.

They can't even pretend to care.

@rastamouse note that it was a protest with #EndSARS + #EndPolicebrutality and was never a REVOLUTION talkless of calling it a failed one.
Always have it in mind that this is a public forum and the right information decimation is needed and key knowing that many people are know informed properly and may assume when a wrong post of information gets to them.

You will agree with the fact that the protest had its mission and it achieved a level of awakening even internationally so the notion of revolution does not have a place and it's misplacement !!!

With this awakening an electorial revolution is imminent come 2023 !!!! That is when we can democratically revolutionise these ineffective governance that has always bedeviled Nigeria!!!

Keep it in mind and Cheers.
Better Days Ahead.

Very good Speech.

First she acknowledged the Lekki Shooting, and condemned it. Apologized to the families of the dead and injured, and went further to set up a planel to compensate all involved. And to bring the shooters to Justice.

Secondly, she talks about reforming the police force with immediate effect and bringing the devilish SARS officers to Justice.

And concerning the thugs who disrupted the peaceful protest, she wrote that the suspicion of them being paid to do so might not be far from the truth, and the matter will be investigated properly and the perpetuators brought to Justice.

And as for the officers who lost their lives on the line of duty, we mourn an salute them, and their families will be duly compensated.

God bless Nigeria.

How does anyone acknowledge what was alleged and still under investigation?

Anyway, her speech. Not the president's.

Fellow Nigerian youths,
Please the youths should continue to interact in one voice through social medias, organize seminars and workshops for the way forward.
We should plan to take power from the old circle. We can do it if we decide to support the movement without tribal or religious sentiments. We can achieve getting the country of our dream. Not with guns, but with God and wisdom. We can get the set of leaders we want come 2023 with the unity we have currently. Lets start by bringing ideas for the next peaceful line of actions that will free us from bad governance and corruption. Let's love ourselves, let's continue to bring peaceful ideas backed with actions. This is not time to be quite. Bring whatever ideas/support you can to achieve a legit take over of governance from the old circle. We have young intellectuals in all aspect of life that can make us proud.
We can achieve it in a legit way.
