TonyeBarcanista:
For real?

Bitterleafsoup:
Yes for real! So if Martin Luther King did not March against injustice do you think any person of color would be enjoying in America. This is not about party or tribe or sections of a country. This is about the fundamental right to peacefully protest.

TonyeBarcanista:

Arresting him won't solve a thing. The appropriate thing to do is to allow him hold his protest while providing security to check activities of hoodlums.

NB: I am not for or against his protest, this is because I consider it to lack objective and focus. However, I wish them well

TonyeBarcanista:

Sorry, the march doesn't look like one with serious objective. I'm not against it though but at same time not in support

Billyonaire:


You are a paid hack, you dont have to support "his" protest except you are offered "some protection". Remember ?

I dont think you actually watched Tuface's speech. I watched it, and there were over 5 objectives he explained in details that affects every Nigerian.

Therefore, it is with every sense of humility that I say that with this march, I want:
1) Security All Nigerians lives MUST matter. My religion, ethnicity or what part of the country I live shouldn’t determine the type of protection I get from my government. According to the Constitution, “the security and welfare of the people shall be the primary purpose of government.”
2)Education To develop beyond oil, we have to invest in our human capital. Every child must have access to quality education. If our teachers are not paid, how will we raise the next generation to lead the country and run our businesses?

3)Health Health is wealth. People die daily from lack of basic, affordable health care. We can definitely do better.

4)Power Government needs to make it easier to generate power at the state and local government level so everything is not tied to the centre. We need electricity to be productive. The cost of generating our own power is crippling.

5)Unemployment Poor education plus a struggling economy means a lot of people are unemployed. Unemployed people are hungry and angry.

6)High cost of living Food, transportation, medicine, everything is 3 times, 4 times more expensive but our salaries haven’t increased. What do we do

7)Social Justice According to the Constitution, “The Federal Republic of Nigeria shall be a State based on the principles of democracy and social justice.” There cannot be one set of rules for the poor and another set for the rich.

Transparency The best way to kill corruption is to increase transparency. Government finances and contracts must be open and available to all. Who got the money, to do what and by when?

9)Cost of government Our governance is TOO expensive – federal, state, local – cars, housing, allowances. We must reduce the cost of maintaining our public officials

10)Patriotism I stand with Nigeria. There is enough in Nigeria for all of us to “chopbelleful”.
Enough is enough. We must put Nigeria first and keep all the greedy & selfish people away from leadership.

Bitterleafsoup:


That is too bad that you are not in support.
How else would you like for them to protest the atrocities of this administration? Just here on Nairaland?
Seun would love that

TonyeBarcanista:
It isn't too bad, I am exercising my right to do what I believe is appropriate in my eyes.

I hope I'm clear on that?

Anago5000:
Ogbeni Tonye.Have you ever stood for a thing? look how messed up ur life have become.damn you

MadeInTokyo:




I can now finally agree with Igbos that Nigeria is indeed a Zoo.



Buhari the stark illiterate remains the first and only Head of State to lead Nigeria into two different recessions at two different terms as Head of State.


I and my family Stand with Tuface



Thunder fire Buhari, the Nigeria police force and the Federal Government ---- DSS, Police and Nigeria Army can quote me.
