I have a lot to say on the protests and the events that followed so I'll just drop some of them here
1. I remember in 2014 when Chibok girls were kidnapped, Jonathan was at a PDP mega really in Kano(?) and there was no way he could have known anything was happening in Chibok

He had lost goodwill with me at that point but I remember wondering why he was getting a lot of blame as if he could have known anything of such would happen that day, it was a point against him then that he was dancing in Kano while girls were kidnapped and his response wasn't
prompt but guess what, he was the GCFR and CSO and there was no excuse he could give, he had to take all responsibility. Some of you bending over backwards today to blame everybody except the government for the events of the past week probably blamed Jonathan even on things he
In 2010 my driver & I were beaten by the police guards of @followlasg gov @tundefashola. They threatened to lock us up. We were scared for our lives. No one knew where we were. All because I took photos of the iconic Nitel building in Marina.

The day before we had just held the first showing of @mypaga to a group of about 20 people. The photos of the event was what made the police say "he might be someone" and finally let me go.

If not for Paga & the potential I saw to impact our country, I would have left Nigeria after that incident.

Feminists (inclusive actual lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals, Trans, Queers) and all elements of destruction sponsored a protest. They disguised under something terrible that has affected a lot of Nigerians, #PoliceBrutality & call for an end to SARS. They didn't expect the govt to
give in easily, and they were disappointed. Then the extended the protest, taking advantage of the poverty & hunger in the majority of the protesters, get donations from international mischief makers & all keep feeding these hungry Nigerians. "Awuf no dey run belle".
The finally released their Agenda, when they thought they have garnered enough support of hoodlums, defeated politicians & even genuine Nigerians that genuinely want improvement in the way we are being governed. But it was too early & it was rejected by the very few people that 
SARS in PH will make you believe car stunts in movies are not film tricks
Imagine getting double crossed at 11pm on your way to the club with bright lights being pointed in your face as you're being ordered to park
For a moment, I felt a robbery was about to go down.

Car slows to Γ halt & these officers approach with cocked guns to take a peek into the car

A driver is in the middle of pleas & negotiations as he is being threatened to cough up a sum higher than his salary for driving his bank manager boss's car to the club for a harmless outing.

@realDonaldTrump I must say something here. I am a Nigerian, living in Nigeria and from what I see in USA, this election would decide the fate of the US for centuries to come. There is a battle for the soul/destiny of this nation because this nation is the lightbearer for the world and...
@realDonaldTrump ...the enemies of this nation have been able to infiltrate members of your government,promising huge compensation if they could deliver this nation over to them. I want to say that anybody that truly loves this nation would stand for RESULT-PRODUCERS as against TALKATIVES....
@realDonaldTrump ..what do I mean. Let me give a history from my nation. Our president promised heaven and earth to us, with the aim to fight corruption, create jobs, make one naira to a dollar, etc. We fell follishly to his cheap talk, kicked against the previous president and today, we are....

People are talking of Akwuzu SARS and forgot about SARS Borokiri. I'm not downplaying the horrors of Akwuzu SARS, but I believe that it has a twin in Borokiri. Going down a nightmarish memory lane, I torturously remember the two weeks I spent there.

Even with medical evidence that I was SS, I was tortured beyond redemption. They wanted me to sign a prewritten statement, but I was able to convince them that it was better written in my handwriting.

The winning argument was that I agreed to confess to whatever they wanted, but I had a plan. My IPO (Investigating Police Officer) that himself intelligent, but to me he was an illiterate.

THE SARS THAT MUST END IN US ALL

I have over the last few days pondered, and sincerely, most of what has been said about SARS is known except we want to be deceiving ourselves. (1/19)

We all need to think about the need to approach these issues collectively. (This is a long piece but bear with me as I express my thoughts)
NIGERIA is a systemic rot. We need reforms in virtually all areas. If you say SARS, (2/19)

or more appropriately the entire police force is in dire need of surgical operation that'll birth an operational proactive elite police force, what about other security agencies (DSS, NSCDC, Armed forces, Paramilitary etc)? aren't they all birds of the same feather, (3/19)
NOW THAT #EndSARS PROTEST IS GOING ON ACROSS THE NATION, OFFICIAL REACTION FROM DIFFERENT QUARTERS.....
THREAD

FG.. The ongoing protest across the nation is being sponsored by opposition who lost out in election, who now want to topple the govt, & when you fight corruption, corruption will fight back, those that our anti corruption fight has touched are sponsoring criminals to protest..
PDP.. We the PDP want 2 alert the world that this protest going on is as a result of failure under Buhari & his party APC, when we were in govt, there was never a protest 2 #EndSARS, we manage the police effectively, we want the world 2 hold Buhari responsible should Nigeria burn
Broken down to its essence, the #EndSARS protests are really about the #righttolife of citizens. It raises the largely ignored question(in Nigeria) of capital punishment.
Given our rather bloody history, if we want to really change the National orientation as regards the sanctity of life,we should elevate the conversation. Does the State have the right to take life in any circumstance? Should we still have the death sentence in our laws? #EndSARS
As we begin to talk about reforms, we should note that reforms would need to be based on a mutually agreed values. What is the value we place on human life as a people?#EndSARS #EndPoliceBrutalityinNigera
DAY 9: KEYS TO REWIRING NIGERIA
Today is DAY 9 of #EndSARSProtest, as aggrieved Nigerian youths continue to yearn for a holistic #PoliceReforms.
At least, 90% of @PoliceNG contacts with ordinary Nigerians, which sparked the ongoing protests, occur on roadways, with motorists.

2/ Having critically examined the contending issues behind the #EndSARSProtest, in this thread, I'll bare my mind on 5 Major Keys to rewiring Nigeria.
@NigeriaGov must look into:
- Central Database
- Policing System
- Justice System
- Road Infrastructure
- Transport Ministry

3/ On October 11, in a thread, I bared my mind on how the Police in saner climes, e.g., U.S., make traffic stops across roadways, according to best global practices, as opposed to how @PoliceNG make traffic stops at their roadblocks of extortion. Readπ
