Damn!

What a gut displayed by PUNCH.

History will remember you right for being the first media outfit to stand up against this tyranny and call it by it's name.

I hope Sun, Vanguard, Thisday, Leadership, Premium Times, Channels, AIT, and all media outfit will follow suit.

But as regards Sowore, he is on his own. He's a big fool being punished by Karma. He worked against GEJ for Buhari. Let him enjoy the saviour he heralded.

Now, you would wanna question why I can't get past 2015, it's simple. GEJ ran a government of vision with short, medium and long term visions backed by measurable policies.

I never benefitted from his govt nor do I have anyone who did but Nigeria was moving in the right direction. All indices were pointing positive.

But Sowore chose to amplify little pitfalls and made look gigantic. Let him enjoy.

On another note however, I really wanna understand the God or whatever GEJ is serving...

Dude moved from lecturing to Deputy Governor.

Something happened to the Governor, he became Governor.

Then he became Vice president.

Something happened to the president and he became president.

Now, all those who worked against him have tested a pill of their own..

Atiku
Saraki
Kwankwaso
Dino Melaye
Many of them.

Really, who is Goodluck Ebele Jonathan?
I gathered his streak actually goes right back to his secondary school days.

Goodluck Nearly destroyed this country with grand corruption at all government levels. Let’s be objective and stop the overhype or else we are equally zombies like those supporting Buhari now. Yes he’s better than Buhari in many areas bt was still a major problem for the country. That is why a lot of Nigerians cudnt support his government.

The objective Nigerians who are nobodys zombies, who address issues and not persons are the most misunderstood people. Like Sowore, Wole Soyinka even obasanjo. Let’s us speak for the right things no matter who it may concern.
Wole Soyinka is even the one that should have known better.He was suppose to have warned young Nigerians(including those who were not burn as at then) against accepting Buhari because he once experience Buhari Autocratic regime in the 80s and knew the various atrocities that happened during those times. But rather he decided to followed the back-wagon of the "Sai Babas'"by telling people that Buhari is a changed man and why he should be forgiven and be voted into power
Why do our leaders always follow the back-wagon at all time? I dont even know why they are called leaders in the first place. I thought it is their duty to counsel the young people about people they are about voting for since they are old enough to know them better. I dont know why they Can not be principled and stand for what is good and right for the people of Nigeria, irrespective of the pressure they are under.Right now they are all silent and scared to even speak up in the face of oppression

VULCAN:
I think you need to tell yourself the Truth because the fantasy you paint about Sowore is a bit ridiculous.

The most corrupt human being in the entire South West Nigeria is Tinubu.

How come Sowore has not unearthed a single thing about Tinubu's source of immense wealth?

Sahara Reporters completely ignored Tinubu in all their investigative journalism. How could that be possible?

A few weeks to 2015 election there was a list of property purportedly owned by Tinubu that was released. No one knows who released it but it wasn't SR.

My brother, pls wake up.

There is/was a pact between both men and such pacts usually operate with economic benefits to the lesser person.

Having said this I do not support Buhari trampling on the human rights of Sowore


Please, I'm not lying to myself, I'm only sharing my view. You could agree or disagree.

Back to the topic, we can only speculate. But regardless of how you view it, he still had his right to support anyone he wanted to support. That shouldn't undermine the struggle against tyranny. Like I said, it's not about Sowore as a person but against the act of subduing an opposing voice.

One of the following will take place within the next 24 hrs and subsequently the rest may follow;

- DSS invades The Punch newspaper headquarters.
- Soldiers lay blockade on the entrance of punch's headquarters and prevents workers from going in.
- Buhari's spokesmen will come out to say The Punch newspaper is being used by external forces to turn the masses against Buhari and destabilise his government.
- BMO will organise protesters with placards protesting against The Punch and requesting the shutting down of all its newspaper outlets.

Interesting times ahead.

"Nigeria has had more than its fair share of draconian rulers, whether in military or civil garb, but none has succeeded in breaking our resilience and irrepressible spirit. This regime will not prove to be an exception. Nigeria, and Nigerians, will overcome. The strong desire of our people to enjoy the unfettered freedoms guaranteed by the constitution and the rule of law, including the freedom to speak freely and assemble peacefully, will again outlive, outlast and crush the spirit of despotism."

This will only be used as evidence to expedite the social media bill. This time it is not just going to be "social media bill" but "all media bill".

Can we just stop this? Sowore is a citizen just like you and I, and as such, had the right to support any government. He's got the right to his views He felt GEJ wasn't doing great (contrary to your view) and he spoke against him. He feels this government is doing worse and he rose against it too. Isn't this how it's supposed to be? The real problem is when we get so much attached to a leader to the point where anyone that has a contrary opinion becomes an enemy.

Nothing justifies what he's going through now. And even if you feel he should rot in hell for working against your prefered government, you must understand that speaking up against his ordeal is not solely for him but for the future of our country.

Good morning.

For the future of which Country

trusting someone like
Sowore who has played the game politics under this structure of Govt we have

is like asking a lion to help take care of your sheep

what we all need is to stand together with one voice boycott any further bloody elections nd demand dat this failed union be restructured

That is the problem. God likely doesnt exist if not these people in govt wouldnt live as long as they do. Buhari at age 82, so old, is still so strong traveling to country from country -- an age, many people on this forum will not get to live up to, talkless of in bliss.
