Nigerians should come out to protest peacefully against hunger and hardship like VDM. VDM didn't commit a crime. Protesting peacefully is never a crime. And it is the job of the police to ensure the rights of peaceful protesters is not infringed upon. 77 Likes 5 Shares

RZArecta: I am still wondering why Nigeria is still a country because this country has been struggling with mutual suspicion since 1967. If citizens cannot trust their government and every action is perceived political and meanings read into it, I don't see the basis for calling this shithole a country. As far as I am concerned, this barred SIM issue has nothing to do with the planned protest. I was disconnected yesterday and I had a hard time debating that it had nothing to do with the protest at an MTN office where over 200 people believed it was about the protest. My argument was simple - if this disconnection was about the protest, why are people being reconnected in less than 24 hours after submitting their NIN biometrics? They should've told us that we had to wait for 10th August (after the protest) for our Sims to start working again. Secondly, Nigerians had been protesting and rioting before we started using GSM. Abeg it's hard living among people who cannot use their heads and don't even trust themselves/the government. 28 Likes 5 Shares |

This protest na just noise for the sake of noise. People dey vex over SIM disconnection like say dem no sabi how dem dey operate. MTN no fit just carry everybody’s line dey play like say na free airtime. If we dey talk about real issues, why no one dey protest about our leaders wey dey chop our money and leave us with this wahala? This one na distraction, because if dem really want to make change, dem go start with the people wey dey sit down for office, not MTN wey just dey follow the rules. Na so e be, we dey waste energy for the wrong fight. The average Nigerian no go even remember wetin dem protest for by tomorrow. Na so we dey go round in circle without any tangible result. 50 Likes |

FuglyGurl: The Tinubu lead federal government is actually fueling the proposed protest with their unwise antics. Tinubu didn't care if boko Haram would hijack the protest he lead against Goodluck Jonathan in 2012 but now afraid this protest will be hijacked by hoodlums, Isis, Taliban, Hamas, Hezbolla and al-qaeda...no be juju be that? 8 Likes

With this unfortunate action of this service provider called MTN, the die has been cast already. The already tensed situation has been heightened by this foolish uncalled action. Everything is on edge, wouldn't be surprised if the violent mob of the already frayed nerves decides to use any of the service centres as a starting point. They better do the needful by going back to the status quo ante and avoid this needless unnecessary tension. A word is enough for the wise. Don't as a private entity go and carry government wahalla put for your head. Violence and rage no dey see reason o! 4 Likes |
