Be sincere with yourself. Are you interested in the protest because of the hardship or because you lost politically? Are you going to join the protesters or you are just going to incite them on social media while you sit at home sipping yoghurt? God will punish you if you fail to join the protest but incite it. Or don't you know that lives may be lost and businesses destroyed if the protest goes haywire? You are like the Pharisees and Sadducees spoken of by Jesus. Matthew 23:4 King James Version (KJV) For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers. Do you think God will be happy when Mama Kennedy is crying because her son who was inspired by your social media post died on the protest ground? Why preach what you can't practice. Why call for protest, yet you kick against such holding in your region? You want another person's region to go up in flames while yours is safeguarded. You are very evil and people like you always lament and never achieve their desires. Are Nigerians suffering? Yes. But evil people like you want to take advantage of that to score political points. You never care about the people suffering; you just want to get at the President because your own candidate was beaten in a fair game. While you sit and make loud noise about your evil plans, have it at the back of your mind that some people are silently watching. The evil you wish others will befall you. The protest will fail because if truly the country is as bad as we all paint it, the protest will be spontaneous. There won't be any need to notify the public. Notification letters only come from shady elements who want to weaponize people's sufferings as a means to getting close to Nigeria's cookie jar. Did APC do the same? If yes, what makes you think you can beat them using their own strategy? Good luck with that. What I've said so far seem like bias but it's the truth. Don't let Obi or Atiku 's loss sour you into a willing tool at their hands. Where are their children? Look, you might think I'm shielding Tinubu, but such is not the case. He has a greater judgement waiting for him from God as Nigeria's leader. If his intentions are bad, he will answer to God. Such notion gives me peace of mind instead of storming the street and achieving nothing at the hand. Enter EndSARS... are police no longer carrying out brutalities? Those who incited the EndSARS protest that brought untold destruction in Nigeria, what happened to them? They got donations from all over the world and bought properties in Maldives while the empty brains they incited got injured and died for nothing. If you think protest solves anything, then think again. Look, government is not here to help you but to give you a reason not to blame yourself for your own failures. We humans always love to blame others for our own failures. Instead of working extra hard to make ends meet, we blame government. Tinubu's mother didn't give birth to him to put food on your table. If you benefit from government 8nterventiom today, be grateful and don't dwell on it. While you blame PDP and APC for bringing hardship and corruption to Nigeria, note that some people are not even aware of such. Those are the people who spent their time focusing on their purpose in life instead of blaming government for every problem. That is why they are not bother by the cry of hardship. Ask yourself, which would you rather be: the protester (complainer) or the one who doesn't need government? 3 Likes |

Yes the traditional worshipper have right to do their worshipping so whoever not pleases can quit Lagos and return to his or her own village its not by force to live in Lagos the oro festival must hold and no one can stop it becase no one stops christain from doing Christmas or Easter and no stop Muslims too. Anybody that disturbs them should be hit with madness instantly, madness wey no get cure I mean. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Protests: Lagos State Distances Itself from Upcoming Oro Festival The Lagos State Government has distanced itself from the upcoming Oro festival, rumored to take place from August 1 to 15, coinciding with the #EndBadGovernance protest. Gboyega Akosile, the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, stated that the government does not interfere in religious activities, likening the Oro festival to other religious events such as Muslim and Christian celebrations. He emphasized that traditional worshippers have the constitutional right to practice their religion without government interference, just like followers of other faiths.

I am not getting something. Is the protest happening only in Lagos? Is this a nationwide protest or a Lagos protest? Because everyone is acting like the protest is scheduled only for Lagos. 1 Like |

For several years I have wrestled with the rationale behind this ORO festival. An act that restricts the freedom of movement and sometimes rumored to promote murder... correct me if I'm wrong but what happens to a person found moving freely during this ORO period? I heard it's instant death used for ritual. We have a public officer coming out to tell us that it's an exercise of freedom of worship. Our constitution provides certain restrictions on Freedom of worship and movement in instances of national security but the right to life enjoys more protection. A FESTIVAL THAT THREATENS THE LIVES OF ANY CITIZEN OUGHT TO BE OUTLAWED. |

The oro worshipers why don't you fix it before or after the protest, this is the leprosous hand of APC, no matter what you do, if you like do oro 365days you will all duffer for the bad governance. Protest may not solve the problem ,but this your approach will not solve the problem. Why is it now that Lagos suddenly turn to oro worshipping. |
