[Cantsay]

I greet una for this corner.

I just surprise say nobody even talk anything about the protest wey our people Dey plan to do from August 1st (wey be tomorrow) to August 10th with the tag “EndBadGovernance”.

I just want hear our opinion on the issue, whether we think say this protest go yield any result or we think say dem go still hire touts to take over the protest and disrupt am or turn am to riots. Make we just chuck mouth for the matter small.

I disagree with you that he did not win the election. If any other candidate win, likely people will also not agree. He lost in Kano and Lagos but this man still won. I am not in support of him when it comes to economy but he won the election. I do not like Buhari time and I do not like this man time but he won. I strongly support the protest if violence can be avoided.

Well, let this not be seen as we deviating from the main topic of the op, which is about the supposed protest that is supposed to start tomorrow, let me start by saying that the protest is one that I fully support, and I wish the youths of this country can so loud it that the government will have no choice but to yield to the demand of the people.

But on the other hand, I think SmartGold is right, tinubu clearly did not win the presidential election that was held in Nigeria in general, he clearly bought his way through, even he himself said it on a live broadcast that he know that the people of Nigeria did not vote for him, but the court has declared him a winner and nothing anybody can do about it.

The protest is one that is long overdue, and like smartgold said, this protest should have started the very moment he was announced winner of the presidential elections, but on the other hand, I understand that protesting at that time would have caused a lot of damage which may possibly lead to war, so, it's still better that the movement is coming now, but my only wish is that it be loud enough to really end bad government in this country.

He said he did not win in a live broadcast? That should be in YouTube. You can show us.

Just like I have said before, with what I saw, Tinubu won the election. The only thing that can be said about the election was that there was violence. And that is how presidential election has always been in Nigeria. I went through the states votes one after the other and I still saw it that Tinubu won. Most people on social media were not voting, all they have is mouth and to be posting on social media.

If you meant that he bought his way in. Politics is politics. Other parties are neither innocent.

My posts on Bitcointalk clear revealed that I am one of Tinubu critics after some months that he become the president. Social media even vote for Peter Obi that most of you wanted, but Atiku was still the second after Tinubu.

Op e dey very obvious say another group don already dey protest since make the general public no embark on the #endbadgovernance protest. The tin just dey anyhow, how people go protest make other no come outside come protest, though some persons go say Na because dem no want make endsars protest repeat itself but the truth Na besay dem fit don give those people small money for them to organise their self to make the first protest. The thing is that are government are forming hard ears and this protest aef fit no move dem, but to avoid am Naim dem dey find. Anyway make we watch and see how e go go.

I don't think if anyone here is answerable to predict if the protect will be hijacked or would profer good after all but one thing is sure that the youths ambition is to achieve positive returns out of it.

Although there are some dubious and short term goal dreamers amidst the youths who are if local self-esteem that the politicians can hire with petty engagements that would not even have potentials of guaranteeing them good futures who might be used to disrupt the protest.

As a citizen of Nigeria with the dream of how my future would be better, I also summon brighter future for my kids and the next generation to come, I sincerely supports the protest with my full energy and hope.
Indeed enough is enough. #endbadgovernmentinnigeria is the code.

There are two things I discovered from the plan protest. Ethnicity and Party Political or party motivated. Many states are saying that they will not participate because the organizers are not from their region while the other people say they are not participating because they are in the political party in power so they are not demonstrating. This are the major issues on ground kow if not the hard economy and cost of living is affecting everyone.
So most states are not partaking in the plan protest.

From what I’ve seen so far I don’t think people really cared about Ethnicity and decided not to partake in the protest - if you see anybody who refused to joined in the protest just know that it’s because of the fear of what happened in #EndSars protest, they are scared of it happening again not really because of ethnic groups.

If you see the government went ahead and deplored several military personnel to help calm the protesters but in reality that agony struck fear in the hearts of protesters and yesterday the NPF released a statement that they deactivated an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) at Ikeja area (we still don’t know how they got that info about the device, if it was a false news to scare the people or not) - putting all of these into consideration I think it’s enough for people to want to withdraw themselves from the protest.

We know that in Nigeria election it is always manipulated and INEC gives the winner to whoever have bought them over and I don't see that as winning but an abuse of human rights. Did you vote for him, If NO then who voted for Tinubu.

It is good that the protest is being carried out so that the world and the government will see that citizens knows their right and if they are being pushed to the wall to much, they will react and this is a good start. I am in full support of the protest, imagine how this administration has turned the country into a country of abject poverty and sufferings for both government workers and non government workers.

People don die in Maiduguri. When the protesters were protesting peacefully without destroying anything and the Nigerian Police Force came and throw teargas on them so the protesters became angry and destroyed things. And another 3 protesters were killed in Kaduna again today as the protest dey hot. On this the protesters were unemployed youths were marching down to the government house when the unprofessional Nigeria police spray water  cannons on them. And in the process of the chaos, 3 protesters were killed by the police. The IG should be arrested for this killing.

[Cantsay]

The IG should be arrested for this killing.

IG arrested? He be like you don forget country wey you Dey - the best that will happen is that they’ll lie that those killed did something wrong and trust me that issue will be swept under the carpet for life.

Regarding the destruction of property, the protesters also went to H&K pharmacy and destroyed property there that are worth more than 30 million dollars, sad that we’re hurting ourselves while the government we’re protesting against are in their mansions enjoying themselves.

There are elections that are not manipulated and there are some that are manipulated. One of the problem of educated people in Nigeria is that they have mouth. They will make mouth but if you ask if they have voters card, they will tell you no. Truly because they do not have voters card. The people that have voters card among them will sit at home on the voting day. Most voters are not literates. But regardless of what happened, I know that Tinubu won the election, but I know people from South East and some South South region that really voted for Peter Obi will not agree. We all know the reason.


Just like I have posted before, I am not in support of this man government with what that is going on in Nigeria. The economy is bad. Also standard of living is becoming poorer.

I just pray this protest don't turn out into violence. I believe the organisers planned it to be a peaceful protest which is normal but the truth is that anything protest in Nigeria is being hijacked alone the line. We remember how the end Sars protest started and how it ended. Hoodlums hijacked the process and turned it into something else which became uncomfortable to the point that even the organisers backed out if I am not mistaken. It is not a crime to protest if things are not properly done in the country but it wouldn't be safe if the process does not go as it was planned to.

Every good Nigerian citizen should support this movement because it's the only way we can bring attention to the government and pressure them to reform the country.
Whether he won or not, I believe this is not the time to discuss it because it has already happened and there is nothing we can do about it. Even the people who voted for him do not enjoy this administration. I know he's pretending not to be concerned about the protest, but I know right now he's not going to feel comfortable about it. During the Buhari era, Tinubu was totally in support of the protest, saying that if Buhari does not make significant changes, Nigerians will protest  so I believe he understands how vital it is for citizens to protest against their government and that's why I support it.

I only support if e go truly be peaceful protest as dem talk, but my fear now be sey this 10days wey dey go do am because e fit con turn to something else and which e don start. How dey protest for Kano, Kaduna and Niger state if dem repeat am again na war go start because like this dey don get report of people wey don die from protesters and also Nigeria police.

Concerning the endsarz protest, it was actually the government that sent hoodlums that hijacked the protest and turned it into a violent one, if you search the internet, specially  X (formally known as Twitter), you will find alot of evidences to this claim.

But then, coming back to the current ongoing protest against bad government, so far, my place is still very calm since yesterday, people are still going about doing their normal business, in fact, at the point, I thought there really wasn't a protest going on, but each time I enter online, I see updates from various parts of Nigeria on how the protest is fairing.

So far though, I personally am yet to hear or read news about any violence, except for one that they said happened in nasarawa where it was said that some angry mobs destroyed government house there, I don't know how true this is though.
