Nigerian Media Is Fuelling This Chaos, And That Is Reprehensible by Rosskii: 10:32am On Oct 21, 2020 |
I've just been watching Channels TV and TVC News, and Arise News, and the ''journalists'' are complaining about soldiers shooting ''peaceful protesters'' even as they are showing the ''peaceful protesters'' burning cars, destroying public facilities, and setting buildings ablaze across Lekki this morning. Channels TV interviewed some of the ''peaceful protesters'' as they were destroying the facilities, and one of them who could barely speak English said they were ''angry'', and that that was why they were burning peoples' cars in their compounds and company cars in company/bank premises. In another broadcast by Arise News, they reported that ''peaceful protesters'' had released nearly 2000 prisoners from jail in Benin. They didn't bother explaining the paradox of such a stupid statement. The reporting of these ''journalists'' did not contain a single condemnation of these ''peaceful protesters'' causing mayhem and anarchy, and they reserved all their condemnation for the police. The ''journalists'' even had the nerve to go round Lekki showing ''peaceful EndSars protesters'' destroying properties in areas where there was no police or law enforcement present, and they never condemned their actions, simply reporting them and showing us the destructive acts on live TV. ARE THE NIGERIAN MEDIA FUELLING THIS CHAOS? I THINK THEY ARE, AND THAT IS CONDEMNABLE. A PROPER MEDIA would call for protesters to respect the curfew imposed, and condemn their destruction of public and private properties, in addition to condemning police shootings. 2 Likes 1 Share |

It's called reprisal attacks Stop being stvpid The protesters at Lekki sat on the floor singing the anthem and got shot at. All violence after that are sympathisers engaging in reprisal attacks. No sane country sends it's army to Shoot at its citizens. Stop being stvpid 13 Likes 3 Shares |

JokeAdeleke: Reprisal attacks against WHO? They are not attacking the police that shot at them last night. They are attacking private properties, public facilities, burning down businesses and banks and burning cars belonging to other innocent Nigerians. As they are doing this, the Nigerian media are NOT condemning them. They are silent. Why? Would you respond this way if it was YOUR property being destroyed by these ''peaceful protesters''? Of course not. SELFISH, HATEFUL PERSON. 2 Likes |

I thought Soldiers were train to confront armed assailant only for me to discover that Nigeria Army were trained to fight unarmed civilians. Shame on Nigeria Army, Shame on our Government, Shame on Buratai. |

JokeAdeleke: 7 people shot is not a ''massacre'' unless you are an illiterate or a liar. And how does that justify these ''peaceful EndSars protesters'' going around Lekki burning buildings and cars parked inside private compounds? Who will pay to replace those cars and burning buildings? Would your attitude be the same if it was YOUR car that was burnt? I think you are selfish and inhuman person, like the criminals going around destroying properties of innocent Nigerians who did NOTHING to them. AND IF YOU ARE DOING THAT, YOU DESERVE TO BE SHOT. If I lived in Lekki, and saw you come anywhere near my house to burn down anything or break my windows etc, I would definitely shoot you, whether or not I am army or police. 3 Likes |

Rosskii: 7 persons. Was that what you were told. Smh. Why did the camera and light got turned off before the shooting.? What actions of the protestor warrants the free spraying of bullets? You will leave to partake of the consequences of this carnage. You and your descendants |

JokeAdeleke: Go and jump in a river. 7 people were shot in Lekki, according to all media reports. If you have your own verified figures, produce them. Don't come here to tell lies or exaggerate out of hatred for the government. Be HONEST for once in your hateful life. |

A wise man understands that not every question needs to be asked and there are many questions that need no reply. Who side are you? The people or their oppressors? |

Rosskii: When americans were protesting blacklivesmatter, and they were destroying properties , how many people did security agents kill? Did they use live ammunition? Do you know the meaning of rules of engagement? How would you react if someone slap you repeatedly for stepping on him ? 2 Likes |

capitalzero: These kinds don't understand 1. The Geneva Comvention 2. The Rule of Engagement First rule of the game is to never arm/attack am unarmed human. That's the standard rule of the wargame No even a finger. Much less live automatic ammunition If they claim innocence, why did the president not hold immediate consultative talks and bring societal stakeholders to calm tensions collectively and speak to the country even when asked to by the NASS 1 Like |

capitalzero: Many people were killed and maimed in BLM protests across America. I don't recall the protesters burning down buildings or private vehicles belonging to ordinary citizens. I only saw them burn POLICE vehicles. Plus the US media CONDEMNED acts of violence and looting by protesters, endlessly. The Nigerian media has turned a blind eye to that, and only condemned police for reacting to these curfew breakers and violent looters and arsonists. |
