xynerise: The wickedness of this government needs not to be overemphasized. Why hoard so much against your citizens when it is super clear that people are hungry? This happened in Maza-Maza, Lagos.
Was the ware house really used for storage of covid-19 palliatives or they are looting an innocent citizen? If it is confirmed that those are covid-19 palliatives then madam disaster has several interesting questions to answer
emekaayomide: The Minority caucus of the House of Representatives has said that it will not accept the gruesome execution of young Nigerians by men of the Nigerian army.
chariisGRACE: He couldn't stand the continuous loss of over huge amount of money that the toll gate generates everyday...Tinubu and Buhari did it. (Tinubu asked Buhari for the soldiers to disperse kill the peaceful protesters that were 'blocking' one of his source of money as he couldn't afford to loose money because of their protests).
Seun how come you're yet to say anything about this? Are you a Robot?
Do you follow seun on all social media platforms he's on?
Someone should assist on how to track a brand new unboxed IPhone o!
Na big gbege dey down like this!
Please o!
Do you have access to the serial number and/or imei number as well as receipt? Then head to the police station but be ready to pay heavily for the tracking.
helinues: Who is inciting you people that you cant make use of una senses.
SARS has been disbanded... Why the unnecessary protest again?
Now, the soldiers are now on our streets something we could have avoided by all means..
Gosh
Have they not been disbanded, dissolved, reformed over five time now? Calm down and understand both sides of an issue before jumping into conclusions. The police IG came up so quickly with his SWAT without addressing other issues that surrounded the disbandment (prosecution of offending SARS offices, compensation of families etc). This shows you how daft and ignorant these leaders are. They only cared for SWAT until the protests continued and Sanwo Olu went to Abuja (to brief the president) and they want to decieve us with their deceptive panels. Besides this is so much more than end SARS right now and until other accompanying issues are addressed I see no end to the situation.
Personally I always maintained tha t the FG delay in implementation of protesters demands will lead to and escalation of demands. Mark my words. If the protests should continue, the demands will cumulate into a cry for Buhari's resignation or the nation will fall into total anarchy.
obehi247: The Nigeria government have quickly addressed the international community to enable them use the military...
The organized and simultaneously take over of the peaceful protest by the government is a clear sign that we must continue to speak untill our voices are help
Therefore, we should highlight our demands and send them to the official social media accounts of the international community...
The few oligarchs can not over power our collective voices...
Please copy, paste and share....

Thanks for sharing this. Please help me understand point 15 better.
My phone got stolen,I really need that phone. It's my life.Please help me track the phone, I'm ready to give you all information.
Please heellllppppp meeeeee!
I beg you. I'm typing this with a friend's phone.So I won't be able to read the comments till noon when I would have access to his phone again.
Tracking of lost phones is very expensive and time consuming. Details are already on the first page. People who do it don't really care about the phone but about getting justice. So if you can afford it go for it else buy a new one. The system that makes it so difficult is part of why we are protesting today.
thebosstrevor1: [s]We can clearly see that law and order have been destroyed in the southern states.
We also can see that foreign influences are the ones sponsoring the protest.
I believe there is an underground cell training protester leaders to sabotage the economy. Where did protest leaders learn to block major highways.
I believe there is an underground cell of the maxist and dangerous Blacklives matter cell in Nigeria, they work with foreign and local NGOs
How should government end this protest.
1-Make sure all foreign NGOS registered as foreign agents, monitor and control their bank accounts.
2- Ban Twitter and facebook and all other American social platforms, these platforms are known to spread the diseases of hate and destruction aka revolution
3. Ban cryto currency platforms
4. Curfew, curfew, curfew
5. Monitor every union groups, implant spies and corrupt union leaders.
6. Make it illegal for protesters to block logistics facilities.
7.pass the anti fake news laws.
This is a battle for Nigeria and the Nigerian government need to take real actions.
The more government waste time and listen to stupid hastags and international news media, the more subversion and sabotage spread.
There is already a crime wave spreading in Nigeria, Government take action.

By next week we start working on operation #onemillionprotesters per state and FCT.
saphiere: Anambra State Governor, Chief Willie Obiano on Saturday visited the three offices of the defunct Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS).
The offices are in Ekwulobia, Neni and Awkuzu.
DAILY POST gathered that the governor during the visit granted bail unconditionally to three detainees illegally held by the defunct unit.
Speaking during the exercise, Governor Obiano said, “the Commissioner of Police in the state has released everyone detained illegally, and everyone remanded by the order of the court, will remain there until their cases are determined.”
Obiano had on Thursday sacked hie senior security aide, James Nwafor, who was formerly a SARS boss in the state before his appointment.
He had also promised to free detained persons and also ensure that Nwafor who was accused of killing and maiming many, was brought to book.
Obiano revealed that on Monday, he will inaugurate a panel that will entertain public petitions on the activities of SARS in the state, adding that the panel will be headed by a retired Chief Judge.
WorkTheTalk: The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) is to kick start the recently created Special Weapons and Tactics Teams (SWAT) Unit with 1,850 operatives in the states of the Federation and the Federal Capital Territory FCT Abuja any time from now, a credible source at the Force Headquarters, revealed this to Tribune Online.
The source said that already, Commissioners of Police in the 36 States and the Federal Capital Territory, (FCT) Command have been directed to submit 50 names of personnel per state for the scheme.
The source further revealed that the CPs were strictly advised that no former member of the defunct SARS should be included on the list and that “the nominees should not have any pending or decided disciplinary case (s) and must be of impeccable character.”
A letter with reference number CB:4770/YBS/ SHQ /SUB.1/89 dated 14 October, 2020 and signed by the Deputy Commissioner of Police (Admin) in Yobe State directed Police Area Commanders, Divisional Police officers and Officers in-charge to release the affected officers serving in their formations.
The letter titled: “Training of Nigeria Police Special Weapons and Tactics Teams (SWAT) to replace the disbanded Special AntiRobbery Squad (SARS),” says: “The Commissioner of Police warn and release the affected officers serving in your formations/Divisions to report at SHQ Damaturu on Friday 16 October, 2020 by 0800hrs prompt for CP’s briefing.”
On the document were 50 names of police officers made up of two Chief Superintendents of Police (CSPs), two Superintendents of Police, four Deputy Superintendents of Police (DS P), five Assistant Superintendents of Police (ASP), three Inspectors, 30 sergeants and four corporals.
The source said that all necessary arrangements had been concluded to ensure the immediate take-off of the training and formal launching of the new Security outfit by the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Abubakar Adamu Though efforts to get the reaction of the Force Public Relations Officer, FPRO, Frank Mba, a Deputy Commissioner of Police DCP, over the development proved abortive, however another Senior Police Officer at the Force Headquarters in Abuja confirmed the story.
According to him, “yes, we are commencing the training of SWAT Operatives anytime from now, each State Police Command and the FCT has been mandated to submit 50 names for the take-off of the pilot scheme, we are good to go now.”
blacknp: You are 109% correct, as Governor is it today okowa became aware that the commissioner of police, and all the police in his entourage are corrupt? It is when people start to protest he remembers? Hypocrite Okowa, isn’t sars the Nigerian police? More than 3/4 of the Governor’s entourage have been attached to sars at one time in their police career.
He pretends he cares about security, let him publish the details of security vote money he receives every month, people in Delta State should be protesting against the Governor, instead they are throwing stones at a flying bird.
Their corruption is to his advantage else he wouldn't succeed in his corrupt dealings.

A governor who paid about 100/200million naira to kidnappers (to secure the release of a relative) and made no attempt to recover said money, apprehend the perpetrators or even "ginger" the police. I get angry when I read about these folks. Anyways it was free money and the kidnappers where simply doing the work.
