Neddstark: Guy, take a deep breath. Calm down. [/b]We know government officials paid hoodlums to attack and frustrate protesters, that was a fact. But Government did not burn police stations.[b] Government did not tell hoodlums to kill policemen. When law enforcement is attacked, it destroys the fabric of law and order in a society which is not good for the average citizen. By then, things were getting out of hands.
nwaezeemmanuel: I have seen past comments of yours where you directly call people 'thug', 'bastard' - although i know you had good intentions.
But don't come here to preach about being polite because you are not reserved with insults here.
By the way, anyone can be a potential rapist - believe it or not. That doesn't mean every person is a rapist, it just means it can be anybody.
Being polite doesn't mean "I turn the other cheek to get another slap" . Its funny how you just pick a single word out of a lengthy conversation just to prove a point.
I yeah, I still maintain my stance - you are making it sound like the guy you are arguing with is a potential rapist, which is the height of disrespect
Can you tell him that to his face? Or are you a keyboard warrior but a toothless dog offline ?
No ves o, just that you sound a bit insensitive and disrespectful
Neddstark: It was getting hijacked. Police stations were being burnt. Prisons were been broken. Law enforcement was getting crippled, there was a time to stop
SilverNorGold: .. The cowardly DJ dun switch country.. Why not finish what you started? You evil DJ of destruction! The blood of all the innocent people killed as a result of your propaganda will haunt you for all eternity!
You and all the evil celebrities will pay dearly for this! You wanted fame so badly to the extent of sacrificing innocent lives to the Devil. Enjoy your fame.. But remember.. The wicked will never go Scot-free. God's judgment will locate and consume you all!
Nigeria must be great. Whether you evil enemies of Nigeria like it or not!
So what was your contribution during the #endsars protest?
Neddstark: Below is a video of DJ Switch during the Endsars Saga before the shooting where she was as usual inciting the protests to go on. She actually said that there is nowhere in the world that change has taken place without sacrifice.. [/b]This failed artist was actually pushing people to still keep protesting and fighting the government, knowing it may end in blood.[b] The only thing I salute about her is her bravery and that she was there untill the last minute unlike the rest of influencers who ran away knowing shit may hit the roof. Now she has seen how bad things can get, she has chosen to run. I thought she wanted sacrifice.
Please Nigerian youths, you cannot fight a government. Nigeria is not Peru, where a president will resign over a protest. Even calm GEJ will never do it. However, you can only change a government through your PVC. Come 2023 let us form a strong youth force that can put in better candidates than the ones there is. Any insurrection against the government will always be met with force. And in this part of the world force is always brutal, look at what happened in Oyigbo, Rivers state. Let us be wise. Anarchy will definitely not pay us.
For those as usual who want to insult and rain curses on me, go and continue protesting endsars in front of police stations.
They get better sexual orientation than here where parents leave their kids to discover things in their adulthood.
Different societies, different laws for different reasons. If you want to have sex with a 16 year old in Nigeria (especially Lagos and Abuja), be ready to plan gist for your cell mate.
Why are you making it look like the guy you are are arguing with is a potential rapist? Why are you this disrespectful and condescending?
I blame the guy. I can stand thick heads who can't argue/debate with proper decorum and politeness..
nwaezeemmanuel: [s][/s]One thing about the internet is that not all results are true.[s][/s]
Go have sex with an 11 year old in Lagos and show them this, you will end up behind bars.
Again, go check your constitution - go check what our law says
Not trying to back sides here... But you will come across more intelligent and wise if you don't attack every argument.
However, the guy you quote is right, in some part of the north, the only age of consent is "a pair of breast and menstruaton", yeah, take it from a northerner. That may be totally different from a place like Lagos. We all know Nigeria is massive and diverse. So yeah, I just hope you get my point
Coolcalmcollect: his actions or inaction resulted in the destruction of lives and properties....the protest of which he had a right to, turned out voilent, he need to be held responsible. cos drinking is allowed doesn't mean you'd be drunk to a job interview
All in your bid to condemn an innocent protester, you end of giving yourself and sounding bias and inhuman. That's embarrassing man.
That said, you are putting the cart in front of the horse, even the police have not formally charge him of any offence, though they are investigating him reason for his detention which was a gross violation of his rights. If you were the IG you probably would him executed him
MyVILLAGEpeople: This is very sad and pathetic... And again when you talk about how this government have failed on Insecurity, they will quickly come out and say the south is trying to overthrow Buhari because he is from the north and a Muslim ( this is what most of them were saying during the End SARS protest, even their Leaders ). Religion and ethnicity has beclouded their sense of reasoning. What happened under Jonathan wasn't up to this, when they called for his head. The hypocrisy of these people stinks to high heavens.
I hope the abducted officers reunite with their families in good conditions soon.
I thought I was the only one observing the hypocrisy of the folks... In your words "it stinks to huge heavens"
Helpfromabove1: From the comments above many don't really understand the 1million ball part , it's not 1million cash and nobody is paying or collecting 1m cash
IT A BAIL BOND NOT CASH , AND THERE WILL ONLY BE AN ISSUE IF HE JUMPS BAIL
Thanks for clarifying.... However, what exactly was his offence?
Okoroawusa: So if they didn't freeze the account will you openly agree that some monies from both local and abroad were paid into your account and that they are still there few weeks after the protests?
I thought she will even deny that it's only #5 that is in her account.
Rinu, you have told us the least amount donated to your account was #7500. You forgot to tell us the highest amount.
EmdRizy: I just got scammed by chat mogul. I paid 1800Naira to their coupon vendor to be given a coupon to get registered and he is claiming not to receive the payment up till now and it has been over twelve hours now. I made the payment through a pos. Please guys,how can i recover the money?
Hello? Please have you being registered on chat mogul? How genuine it is?
Basher8583: Did the Feminist coalition protest which lead to arson, wanton destruction and civil disobedience? If you're answer is no then why should CBN go after them.
And by the way I'm curious. What exactly are the Feminist coalition raising money for?
My friend it seems you have not been following recent events.
The protest has been halted, but every single scene,event or incident was captured and documented. Comb the internet, everything is there.
Basher8583: Trust me.. If they have intelligence on you your account will be frozen.
Rinu should go and explain the sudden inflow into her account. It's that simple. CBN will not just freeze her account for the fun of doing it. And mind you the court of law is involved making the action a legitimate one.
Please stop supporting her if you do not know her background intentions.
I'm sure she is aware of why her account is frozen. She should go to the same Twitter to confess to her fans.
Look man, the most majority of Nigerian youths - I inclusive, put everything towards this cause, our lives, energy, resources and so on. So CBN should hunt us all. No witch hunt.
Besides, is protesting now a crime? Isn't it a fundamental inalienable right enshrined in our constitution?
Lastly, when we say we are the soro some generation, we ain't joking. Feminist coalition breeze pass CBN and raised 147 million naira via bitcoin. There are many ways to kill a rat bro
If you participated in the #ENDSARS protests and you posted pics or videos on socials pls note that it could be used against you especially if you are interested in migrating abroad to countries with strong relations with Nigeria.
Your SM could be searched and any anti-government posts make you lose points. So better go delete or hide such posts to avoid unnecessary wahala.
2ndly, Nigeria is obviously not ripe for a complete revolution/takeover/reconstruction/breakdown to happen. And the reason is because the Northerners are passive about the movement.
I believe true breakdown will only happen when the North champions the movement. Till then we go suffer for 600 years till we reach that elastic limit.
Rich man wey still money we no dey see their face for Crime Fighter..
***modified
I know Mass action can be unpredictable esp with the introduction of the Internet.
But you need to understand that what the Nigerian youth is doing in the real sense of it is an ANTI-GOVERNMENT PROTESTS which could lead to a complete upheaval in govt.
If you want to do a political takeover you have to understand what it is. And do so correctly.
What tactical provisions do you have for physical protection and international support Incase push comes to shove?
The funny thing is the majority of the Youth are yet to realize what exactly it is the protests was all about.
It is about breaking down Nigeria and the longer it takes you to understand it the worse it gets.
You can't dabble into power tussle in a 3rd World Country and expect the government to shake hands with you and sign a paper.
You'll most likely get shot in the back of the head point-blank range
If the North don't join they'll be left behind like you said. But at what cost?
A bloody war against the East again? Nahh. We need more suffering. It's a good thing the West championed the #Endsars movement.
The Nigeria you seek CANNOT be achieved by our generation. Nah.
We are not yet neck deep into pains and suffering. Only when we reach that breaking point the division will be achieved. But for now, when Master passes by. We genuflect in respect and silently fart to show our disgust.
I get your point, but just so you know - some of us in the north loathi this government
Okoroawusa: Oga Police Commissioner please don't hesitate to scatter the leg of any "baga" that tries any nonsense protest... whether peaceful or pissiful.
Keyboard warrior
Why didn't you interrupt our protests when it was going on?
We for flog nonsense and hypocrisy commit from your body . Bastard
helinues: Any protesters in any part of Lagos or SW should be shot at sight.
The jobless youths of NO tomorrow are looking for any opportunity to loot again.
Bastard . The #endsars protest have been on going peacefully for nearly 7 days until sponsored-thugs and hoodlums were brought to attack and ruin the efforts of peaceful protesters.
We tried to bring change to our country but deplorables like you are trying hard to sabotage our efforts.
Etinosa12345: This govt is very useless... They have not freeze any politician account ooo but will freeze an innocent protester account all because they want a better Nigeria
What's more useless are the buharist and bmc like helinues and tecm0 that keep on supporting the trampling of their rights to protests
You forgot that shallow bastard - bofa2020 or whatever his monicker is
Him and his like minds have sold their souls and self-respect on the alter of tribalism and hypocrisy.
oguns222: Everyone of you on nairaland that support the government for freezing the accounts of peaceful protesters, you are useful idiots. I pray for you today that the wickedness and intentional evil you promote will be your ruin. Amen.
Most of them are brainless old fools... Especially that bastard called bofa2020.
Okoroawusa: After the investigation if you have nothing to hide then your account will be unfrozen...
Just chill...
Which investigation? And about what? We all supported, they should freeze all our account if that is the case.
Maybe if the organic movement has leaders, they would have been eliminated. If such a violation can be done to mere supporters, imagine what will be done to it's leaders.
And we keep wondering why the country is regressing.
