Arrant nonsense! Must we do everything backwards in this country! Name a politician abroad that would dare speak with protesters or the youth population with such condenscending tone! Children, as if all those who are on social media are below 20. The focus of the speech was on controlling social media which is sa shame since any right thinking politician should be more focused on the sufferings of the masses, the root cause of the issues.

Treating the symptom rather than the disease is a fool's journey, one thing most wise people try and avoid but in 9ja it seems to be the way things work. Desmond is a coward, a betrayal of the medium that propelled him to fame in the first place. Without the youth, he would have lost his consituency even with the backings of his godfathers.

When people are murdered by the government, should the concern be children cursing or should it be why have things worsened to cause such a rebellion. WE can forgive the old ones for being incompetent but when a youth like Desmond shows the same incompetency then we truly see how hopeless this country has become!

Desmond Elliot and his defenders are all idiots for calling Nigerian youths children. It's such an imbecilic metaphor that casts doubts on their credentials as clear thinkers and progressive temperaments.
Would they rather have youths in the dark ages,shut out from the world , from technology, and revolving in the crypt of the ignorance?

When I saw him being dragged, I also wondered if he killed someone. A particular IG blog was even trying to silence him with pictures of his babymamas- can you beat that? I really do hate cheats, but I couldn’t find the correlation between his speech, the insults on his person and digging into his private life.

Anyway, it is the new trend on social media- they never take their time to process information. Here on NL, once the first few commenters post in one direction, it would take a really brave person to face another direction. Trust me, some know the noise wasn’t worth it, but they are scared of being e-lynched by our recent hyperactive online Martin Luthers. cheesy cheesy

Been a politician is enough sin already as it is now in Nigeria. I believe that was the singular reason he was dragged about. Also, there doesn't seem to be anything different between him and the older politicians.

My verdict-

While you people are here screaming at Desmond Elliot, hope you know the price of a bag of Onions has gone up from 3,500 to 7k, bag of local rice from 25 to 28k while sachet tomato don climb from 50 naira to 120 naira, amongst other demonic increases and it is not yet festive season o!

Some days back, the Nigerian social media users were dragging Desmond Elliot like Tiger generator because he tagged the youths as children. I was a bit indifferent about the whole brouhaha because wetin I dey think big pass all that noise and after watching the now infamous video, my indifference did not change.

Desmond later came out to apologise in tears for calling us yoots 'shidren', and while I was wondering aloud on this forum what the whole fuss about, my friend told me offline told me this-

"The problem is that the Nigerian social media space is now a lynch mob. Nobody is ready to listen to common sense, people are incapable of comprehending simple ideas and people are very intolerant of any view that does not agree with theirs

People are reacting to Desmond Elliot's video based on what they think he said, not based on what he actually said"


This friend shared the full YouTube clip with me and after watching it again, I realised how very toxic social media has become.

I stumbled on an article by Ivan-Whyte Eagle Lawson who has articulated my thoughts on this whole distracting nonsense featuring Desmond as the lead character.

Long post alert!! Stop here if your attention span is one tweet long.
