In Nigeria, the protest is as a result of bad state actors who are feeling pained that the election conducted didn't bring them to power even when some came distant third position.

There is hunger in the land. Yes it is true, but what have the individuals done about it? did hunger start today? have they gone to farm? they blame the government and i ask, define government. Are the masses not the authority? are they not the ones who sent people to represent them? What have they done to support those they sent to represent them? If they are hungry they should go to farm and not allow themselves to be used with hunger as an excuse or tool to be used by those who lost out of election to cause chaos.

The rot of over 16 years cannot be cured by just 1 and half year of Tinubu in government. Peter Obi had 8 years as governor of a state yet left Anambra as one of the worst state in terms of development and governance.

Those behind the protest are only calling for anarchy and chaos to make this administration unstable.

Even if the protest ends, untill the farmers harvest their crops, there's nothing that can be done about the hunger. Government can not farm to feed the whole nation. Most Nigerians want everything to be given to them freely without them working for it.

Minimum was increased to about N30k Abia state and Benue that i am aware of were still paying workers about N18k till date. But it is the federal government that they want to blame. Even if it is increased to 200k, federal government will pay her own workers but will the state government pay their workers? will the private sector pay? are the protesters protesting against their state government or against Tinubu? The man -Tinubu- has increased minimum wage. Ask you state governors to implement it and lets see.

Traders in the market are increasing prices in the market at will, are they protesting against those traders? but it is Tinubu that is increasing prices.

We need to be wise as a people in this country.

The call for anarchy should be resisted by all means and those supporting it should be brought to book.

For me, i am not among those protesting because the protest is just a call for anarchy.

You want farmers to go back to farming have you forgotten fulani herdsmen...

I'm not saying these current rulers have anything to offer.

No. They don't.
They are totally empty of ideas.
But note: your problems since 1884->1914---> 1960 which have all given birth to the problems of now was caused by who?
Those same white men.

Don't forget; agendas are changing.
Before, it was simply:
- slavery:- do don't casually exterminate your slaves, when you need their labour

- colonization:- your don't exterminate ppl in your colonies, since you need them to be producing low-cost raw materials for your industries

- neo-colonisation:- you still need these ' slaves' to produce and keep on repaying the fake debts you placed on them

-Depopuation:- you don't need the slaves anymore. They all can die. You can bring and replace those populations with others.

Do You
Understand Where I'm Driving To?

To avoid a problem, always nip the root cause in the bud by treating it and not by trying to subdue it. African leaders were elected by their citizens, but they automatically become tyrannical once they acquired political power.
'Since the time of the John the Baptist, entering the kingdom of God had become violent and the violent takes it by force', What nigerians are asking for is the kingdom of God on earth where justice prevails in the sharing of national cake and wouldn't be achieved without giving a fight and it will not be easy, We must have by now understood that Politicians are not ready to hand over such to Nigerians.

By implication, protest is like a festival for the poor masses and threat to the capitalists. We must be ready for the worst against the Army. Police will be overrun and later change their uniform and runaway, they can't stand nigerians! I strongly beleive that it may get to a state whereby the president will run away from the country if citizens decide to. Protest is more dangerous than AK 47 the Soldiers are holding. Many of the officers' responsibilities at home are taken care of by their wives' concubines in their various barracks because 50k stipend does not take them home. Protest played significant role in killing of USSR, I so much believe that nigerians can gather and overthrow the government, line up and decide who governs them.

Nigerians didn't vote for the president as he himself just told the Northern Elders that he bought his way to the presidency i.e poor masses didn't take him there. Whether you believe it or not, State governors will let him down in this protest bcus of LG authonomy. Igboho , Asari dokubo, agbero thugs in Lagos are pretending they just want to collect money, that is it. EVERYONE IS TIRED! My advice is that if you have money in your Account pls withdraw it and buy foodstuffs at home. NEGOTIATED FREEDOM IS UNFREEDOM.
May God help the Poor
