Peter Obi Decries The Poor Handling Of 124 Protesters By The Federal Government by DamnnNiggarr: 4:55pm On Nov 01, 2024
I just watched the disturbing and condemnable scenes captured in a circulating video, showing 124 protesters—among them minors—appearing in court today as part of efforts to secure the enforcement of their fundamental rights.

The footage reveals minors, some so weak that they could barely stand, others fainting from sheer exhaustion and lack of nourishment. These children appeared visibly malnourished and starved—a condition that should alarm the conscience of every citizen in our nation.

From their look, they were poorly handled despite being in the custody of the federal government of Nigeria.

The offense being alleged against these suspects, including minors, is protesting against bad governance that was directly affecting their livelihood and which our constitution under a democratic dispensation guarantees them. Curiously, most of the people in government today leveraged this aspect of the Constitution standing as champions of good governance while in opposition.

Moreover, our status presumes that suspects deserve some dignity, even in a correctional home as human beings.

The reason why we should all be concerned about a situation like this is because we are part of a global community where human dignity should be respected.

May I appreciate the presiding lordship for halting the trial and saving the country further embarrassment it would have been to the World as a democratic nation?

I would like to call on relevant authorities, especially the Minister of Justice and the Attorney General of the Federation, the Police, and the DSS, as well as the National Human Rights Commission, to thoroughly investigate such inhuman treatment of minors to avert such incidents in the future. -PO

Starving Northern children in prison because they protested against the present government is the worst crime this Administration has committed against the North... Yes it has done so many bad things to the North

But this, this one takes the cake


Tinubu should know that the North remembers

That's the pitiful condition we find ourselves in now.

Everything about Nigeria seems to be falling apart, and everyone is eerily silent.

It'll take 40 years to undo the damage the APC government has done to Nigeria's state and institutions.

Almost 20 or so people were mud in the SE in the past few weeks. Peter Obi never sow thread.

Seems other people lives are now more important to him than his fellow Ibo people.

Lastly, the person in charge of taking those children to court need to be fished out and sacked. If they burn down properties, go after their sponsor and deal with them mercilessly. Optics wise, it’s a dent on the government with those small children in court.

They even look like person wey no sabi wetin em dey do.

Coming from a man that used one beast called James Nwafor of SARS to brutalize and silence those that oppose him during his period as a governor.

If you are the president, you can’t do anything different. THERE HAD NEVER BEEN ANY RECORD OF YOU FIGHTING FOR THE MASSES WHEN YOU WERE IN GOVERNMENT. So stop acting like an activist all in the name of canvassing for support from the masses.

PDP una dey fall my hand big time. This useless drug addict was sponsoring violent protests against your government during GEJ regime to the extent they toppled the regime and established the APC government. I was expecting to see PDP doing the same now that they are at the other side but no they just kept mute. Useless PDP.

The only voice still crying in the wilderness like in the time of John de Baptist is Obi. God bless okwute. God bless Peter the rock. With Obi we are secured. All the opposition political parties are redundant and useless

Yes, he should remain silent, and act a fool like you and allow things to continue deteriorating.

You and others who support every evil happening in Nigeria today due to tribalism will reap what you sow.
