The Clamp Down On Endsars Protesters by Bulleye(op): 9:27am On Nov 06, 2020
On one hand the federal government is pretensiously dangling the olive branch at the youths. It is setting up panels, committees and mandating them to liase with the youth in knowing their grievance. The government is deceitfuly putting up funds to enable the youth have access to financial aid to set up their own business. This government is making official pronouncements on government resolve to dialogue and negotiate with the youth.

However, on the other hand the government is heating up the polity by its usual divisive means and persecuting participants in the endsars protests. Government officials, who are of northern origin and occupying sensitive federal positions became tools of the regional bloc, Arewa. They assembled and deliberated on sectional agenda and had the audacity to be part of such ethnic body while still holding their federal offices.
They could not and have not dissociated themselves from the press statement emanating from the gathering. Is this not a threat to national unity and cohesion? Is there any sense in their stand for Nigeria's indivisibility when the gathering itself is a threat and and danger to national unity and security?

What peace is a government that is persecuting participants in peaceful protests after? This government cannot claim to be democratic and respectful of citizens' rights to peaceful protests while at the same same time hunting down those who participated in endsars protests. At the end it shall be clear to all those power mongers that government is accountable to the people and not the other way round.

The north sees the south as not intelligent. They will do anything to keep trampling on the right of the south through force and persuasion.

So far, it's not working. It will never work.

This clampdown is happening because Yoruba's were cowed into total submission to the caliphate and Islamic council.

Its their choice.

The north have divided the south and shall plunder it to their satisfaction.

How can IGP be part of a sectional bloc that represents a regional political body and be comfortable in their gathering?
What message is he passing to the rest of the country?
