AT LEKKI TOLL GATE
When I offered a few a place to sleep, many of the online propagandists who continually heat up the polity with incitements were tweeting "why ladies?" As small as the offer is, this is what others and churches saw and started asking people to come for shelter.
@UN's Declaration on the Protection of Women and Children in Emergency and Armed Conflict stipulates priority protection of women and children. International Committee of Red Cross has its equivalent (30-10-85 article, No. 248) for priority first aid treatment. Its common sense!
Ironically, its women who started querying why women, before men. This is d extent to which many stoking this fury are ignorant and tweeting it from their homes when these people are in peril.
I'm not in Lagos, talk more of being at the place I asked people to run to for shelter.
