Rapper, Falz, has called for the immediate release of convener of the Revolution Movement, Omoyele Sowore.

In an Instagram post on Monday, the 28-year-old challenged the government to listen to the voice of the masses rather than arrest anyone, Igbere TV reports.

He also added that planning a protest was not in anyway an act of treason.


Mr Sowore, a former presidential candidate, was arrested by the Department of State Security (DSS) on Saturday, two days before the commencement of the RevolutionNow protests.

According to Sahara Reporters which Sowore is a publisher of, he was visited on Monday evening by members of the ‘Take It Back’, another movement which is also aimed at championing the course for a better country.
Sowore was quoted saying: “I am pleased that the peaceful #RevolutionNow protests went ahead.”
He also called for the release of all who were arrested during the protests.
“Knowledge of the sheer number of innocent Nigerians being arrested for exercising their civil rights bothers me.
“I join others in demanding for the immediate and unconditional release of all those arrested by the police on Monday,” he said.
Sahara Reporters said Sowore was met in good health

Naija no dey joke with Monday work

Oh my Nigeria
Other countries will stage a peaceful protest and the govt will ascertain and a dress the issue


But here in my beloved country you get beaten for speaking up

Wike is a brainless individual

Lordave:
Just watch as Wastern Zombies will insult falz and his father.

Disgusting people, they even insulted Soyinka for saying the same thing.

These people do not mind presenting their fathers' head to Buhari just so they can dream more of their 2023 Osunbade utopian presidency.

Despicable sets of idiots.

Do you know you can air your opinion without insulting anyone?

The protest would have been beautiful if the word revolution was not used..

No government would permit revolution.


Revolution happen naturally, you don't have to name it one

Falz you know all this things are not possible you even said it in your song.


This is Nigeria lyrics answers it all


Extremely Poor. The medical facilities are poor. We operate a predatory, neocolonial capitalist system, which is founded on fraud and exploitation and therefore you are bound to have corruption. Many criminal cases are settled in police station.

Ehee, Ehee Ehee ee ewo
Ehee, Ehee Ehee ee ewo
Ehee, Ehee Ehee ee ewo

This is Nigeria
Look how I'm living now
Look how I'm living now
Everybody be criminal
This is Nigeria
Look how we living now
Look what we eating now
Everybody be criminal

This is Nigeria
Just because I'm on TV now
Person wey get no work
Is checking to see
If my watch is original
This is Nigeria
Wey da Madam Philomena
Money vanish from your office
36 million
You talk say na animal
This is Nigeria
Never end the recession o
When looter and killers and stealers are still contesting election o
Politicians wey thief some billions and billion no dey go prison o
Police station dey close by 6
Security reason o

(Babaa, oche o, Babaa, Oche o Babaa)
My brothers and sisters I want you to put your hands up right now because your miracle is coming this week. If you believe let me hear you say Amen.

This is Nigeria
Praise and worship we singing now
Pastor put his hands on the breast of his members
He's pulling the demons out
This is Nigeria
No electricity daily o
Your people are still working multiple jobs
And they talk say we lazy o
This Is Nigeria
There is plenty Wahala sha
Fulani Herdsmen still they slaughter
Carry people they massacre
This is Nigeria
Works in my area
This is democracy
Political hysteria
Yahoo yahoo don't tear everywhere
Now we act like it's so cool
Casting the P being castigated just by trying to noble
This is Nigeria
Look at my nation o
SARS stop me for road any explanation you go talk am for station o

(Sir am, Sir look am sorry, am just a student. Am a student of the University of Lagos. We are just coming from the club. Ok so my friend and I. No sir I had my ID to prove.)

This is Nigeria
Look how I'm living now
Look how I'm living now
Everybody be criminal
This is Nigeria
Look how we living now
Look what we eating now
Everybody be criminal

(This is breaking, transmission of ah, transmission eh, transmission.)

But what happens everyday is that, the system has allowed it. For instance there is no law that allows you to take money from the church, invest in business, and privatize it. No. It is only in Nigeria were you can take money from the church, money contributed by poor congregation members. You go and set up a university that the members cannot attend. Cannot send their children to. It's against the rule and the law of God. It's against the constitution.

That's the difference between a Democrat and a Dictator. Sowore led series of protests during GEJ tenure and wasn't laid a finger on throughout GEJ 6 years in power. The Same PMB they plotted with is now the one showing him pepper dem gang with DSS

What a time to be alive and witness karma.

For ur mind..

He should be locked up,aren't u the one that said that everyone is a criminal in nigeria

Falz for the masses. Watch as no celeb would talk about this..

The bad guy. Thanks Falz.
But the BBQ girl (Lauretta Onochie) thinks otherwise

All of you should join forces.

I am indifferent on this.

Sowore is was part of the buhari movement until the ship of misfortune left him behind.

Now he is crying foul.

I gat no f*cks to give biko. Call me stingy

Will you keep kwayet

This one pass falz biko.

I wanted to support but our umu-nna said we shouldn't that its a Yoruba struggle

We dont have anyone like Fela again

Falz for the masses, watch as no celeb would say anything about this issue.

Oya Falz goan release him na.

We they hear

I also think that the government did not act smartly.

The FG should have just allowed the protest/revolution to go on and then wait patiently for the miscreants among the crowd to start misbehaving. And trust me there are always unruly elements in every protest in Nigeria.

And once they start blocking roads and disrupting the activities of citizens who don't want anything to do with the protest/ revolution,

The security guys would then take the chance and deal ruthlessly with the protesters/ revolutionists.

You can protest but don't

Block roads
Interrupt markets and businesses
Cause hold ups
Burn tyre/property
Fight


The government should have just set a bait and dealt ruthlessly with these election losers.

The Igbos are truly the most confused people on earth.

You said his revolution is Yoruba revolution!
You said Buhari should deal with him!
Falz want him released you still gloat!
Some Yoruba supported the protest you still wail!
Some Yoruba opposed the protest you still gloat!
You said you’re revenging the stance of Yoruba on IPOB!

What do you guys actually want coz it seems you are confused. You hate Buhari, you don’t love what Sowore does, can you sight the confusion?

Some biafuro dimwits really think this whole thing is a Yoruba struggle . I laugh, if anything the failure of this revolutionnow just emboldened the authorities to do whatever they want, arrest whoever says sh*t and get away with it. But what can one expect from children of hate whose minds have been clouded by hate and tribalism? Buhari carry go jare arrest and kidnap anybody papa wey talk nonsense, I go dey hail una from outside Nigeria

Lmao

See as celebs kept shut. Nice on falz. But when it was busola dakolo matter we no hear word. People like banky wey contest laat elections self mute

Falz Oya talk am o!

Falz calls it protest march when really Revolution is what it is named and intended. The federal government is just taking such name Revolution very serious. FG no for play with protest talkless of Revolution.
