Political idiot

He didn't comment on Fulani herdsmen issue, preferring to communicate through his Friends like Bauchi governor, but suddenly found his voice in the Endsars ordeal.

It clearly shows Endsars is a tool at the hands of politicians.

There is no correlation between fees collected @ d toll plaza and d people that was aledgedly killed @ Lekki.

Endsars protest wasn't about fees collected @ Lekki , Lekki was only a point protesters converged. It's now obvious that the protest was against some individuals.

The road was never closed only that fees were not collected so they should ask for justice in the court not on the road.

He wouldn't condemn it if he was an APC members.

It's campaign strategy.

The average Nigerian needs to understand that the only thing their politicians respect is extreme violence.

A simple explosive planted / detonated at the toll plaza will serve a better purpose than these drama.

It has worked for niger delta militants and IPOB.
