People are sacrificing their time, their lives to give you a better life and you're complaining.

You're lucky I've repented.

Pocohantas u have tried. Stop replying everyone. You have made your point.

I have no plans of doing that sef. I posted a screenshot of donations as at last week and someone said it is a lie. The person doesn’t the know the group responsible for receiving and disbursing most funds. A lot of them are just doing bandwagon on social media and are totally oblivious of the work being done.

Arsenate:

Yeah, her dumb points which she is rightfully called out for. People have sacrificed much more for causes not even as great as this, we are talking about lives, what the fuckkkk is traffic?

Kaycee7:
Nigerians also deserve to be able to move around without unnecessary obstruction and delays. People have medical an personal emergencies to attend to. And all that is being asked is that protesters restructure their protests to not obstruct transportation, as much as possible. The people cooking and delivering food to the protesters, as well as, the ambulances rendering medical help need to be able to access locations as quickly as possible. Reason am now

ALOL. she say most pple ar scared 2talk of d traffic 4 fear of blacklash. she gat balls of steeel I guex

You are right, but I am not Buhari, his family member or his sidechick. So they are hurting us to get at Buhari. We are all in this together . There has to be a way to do this without inconveniencing fellow Nigerians.

Buhari is not even in Lagos.

I think I have made my point clear. Many want to say this, but are scared of the backlash .

I am selfish, yes. However, no energy to shalaye, body dey pain me sef. I’ll see what the forthcoming days bring...

Kondomatic:
You're getting something wrong even though I understand you perfectly. Nope, people are not scared to talk, they're quiet because they're seeing the bigger picture.

These protesters are not all jobless, some abandoned their jobs to protest, some closed their business, some put contracts on hold, why? Maka na ahu ihe ka ubi, ere oba.

It's difficult to have a protest as huge as this and not have traffic, people are traffic after all.

Now if you allow movement of vehicles where there's a huge gathering of people like this, you will records deaths. Some drivers are either high, mad, highly mad or madly high.

Any person wey dey pursue something dey run past something.

If getting up by 3am to beat traffic will help you get to work early, please sacrifice your sleep for the sake of this.

These people did not block roads in the beginning, it was when a driver knocked someone down and the protesters were blame for his death that idea to block roads came.


I understand your job is important to you but what we are after surpasses individual needs.

MLTR:




If there are no inconvenieneces then its business as usual, if its business as usual how will the govt take us serious.
These protest are orchestrated by lenied & exposed Nigerians, certainly they know the inconveniences people might go through, buh its unavoidable cos every gud demand comes with its own price.
when the govt locked everyone in, people had flight scheduled, medical appointment, fixed event .... why did poco not open a thread to nag, whats going on now is not even up to that and some of you can't show understanding cos the inconveniences is not coming from the govt ..lol! cumma stop us.

Kaycee7:
Inconveniences to the government? Or to the people who are also part of the protest?
I don't think you people seem to understand that this protest is a war we cannot afford to lose and the government is still acting unserious. This protest will very likely drag from weeks into months. Does it still make sense to keep people gridlocked for that long?
Also, I don't really know if you're conversant with a lot of what's going on in this protest but fluid traffic is beneficial to even the protesters on ground. The other day, inhalers got to one of the locations just as someone was having an asthma attack. Imagine if The vehicle transporting it had been stuck in traffic for just 30 more minutes?
You talk about understanding. Well, show a bit of that too. It's not us against you. We're all in this together. Nobody needs to come and stop you. Keep on frustrating the people who are a part of this fight and watch your fellow soldiers desert the battlefield.

U ppl ar startin 2piss me off,u & pocohantas & anyone else talkin nonsense laik dis on d thread.
U & who ar init togeda? Do u or poco haff any personal story of death wit sars 2 talk abt?

https://www.nairaland.com/6186765/how-obiano-facilitated-transfer-james

Read tru all dat & d thread b4 it,link is insyd, then cum back & talk nonsense abt hw we ar all in dis togeda
. Until u haff ur broda,cousin, friend, father,uncle killed lyk christmas fowl by police, none of u haff any rite 2claim we are in dis togeda. Dont b unfortunate
U either understand wat d pple who haff lost loved ones went tru or u sit back & shut up & manage d holdup. Rubbish

Kaycee7:
No problem. Until someone's child, parent or relative dies because they could not access medical help as a result of this gridlock.
The way people like you jump to conclusions or project emotions online. You think everyone who's lost someone to this SARS menace is supposed to be as illogical as you are. It's exactly because I've been affected by it that I don't want folks like you that can't seem to see the big picture to sabotage this protest with your narrow-mindedness.
If you feel say na you suffer for SARS hand pass, go and form your own faction and don't disrespect the pains of everybody else simply because they're trying to be considerate.
People have died in the course of this protest. It would be an insult to their sacrifice for this whole thing to fall apart simply because of petty issues that could simply be resolved through dialogue and compromise.

SegFault:

Stop replying crude savages that cannot even express themselves, they will never see eye to eye with reason. They act on the barest of instincts.

Kaycee7:
The least we can do is try, before giving up on them. But I think I've done enough. I'm done.

Nfora:
It is very barbaric and negates the tenants upon which they are protesting.

The constitution that guarantees freedom to protest,also guarantees freedom of movement.

Protesters can go on with their legitimate action without encroaching on other people's right.

Leaders of tomorrow indeed!

2 days ago,a man could not visit his pregnant wife in the hospital because the roads were blocked.

What a country!
Hypocrisy every where!

pocohantas:


Please don’t let our online MLKs see this.

The man mustn’t go to the hospital to see his wife and newborn. They are fighting for his newborn.


The woman can wake early as 2am to come home or stay back at the hospital. CEOs are aware of the situation, I guess this extends to hospital owners- they can allow her stay a few more days FOC. All these options are way easier and selfless suggestions.

SegFault:

You are daring the online social justice warriors, poco hold yourself ma, hold yourself oh

pocohantas:


Lol. We are all striving to be selfless Nigerians- online at least.

True freedom, not made in China comes at a sometimes steep price. I'm stuck in traffic too as I type this, inhaling noxious fumes, but I recognise these times are historical and we must endure for the sake of posterity.

Happy Endurance, Ishi. I am stuck in traffic again, went for the wedding of my lovely friend who happens to be a Nlder. One of the 17 single eligible Nigerian men. Luckily, I am not inhaling nothing. My office has made provision to move all essentials to hotels at designated walkable distances- I am ready for organized ENDURANCE too. Aluta continua
