NIGERIANS DON'T DIE IN THEIR WAR:

Are Nigerians easily drawn to "protests"?

Do we even have the guts to destroy property during protests?

Who are these "ordinary people" protesting?

WALK WITH ME (@firstladyship)

[Igando Palmpay Titi Mowe Bashir Ahmad First Lady Buhari]

1. It took the bravery of young people across mostly Southern Nigeria to start a protest against killer SARS officials after more than a decade of their murderous activities...

2. It's been 7+ years and people have been buying food 🍲 at the highest rates ever recorded in the last decade, yet no one has protested

Rather, Nigerians have continued to "endure"; our greatest coping mechanism

3. Today, unlike 2012, we are buying petrol ⛽ which is a very critical item in the running of economic activities, yet no protests

4. From 2020 till 2022, there was cumulative #ASUUStrike of 17 months, the children of these supposed "ordinary people" were wasting away at home, yet no protests from their parents

Rather, we WAITED!

5. This administration has supervised the most inept, the most callous, the most disastrous policies in all ramifications:

Fuel scarcity
Border closure
Rice Fx Ban
Twitter Ban
Crypto Ban
Several killings by military forces
Etc

Yet, there has been no protests

So, who are those protesting and why?

1. These people are mostly sponsored thugs from the career politicians (with a few "ordinary people" who don't know better)

These are the same thugs used for election violence and were used to start violence during #EndSARS protest

2. The only reason these politicians are bent on causing chaos is because their only source of "wealth without enterprise" (aka politics) is currently being THREATENED by the monetary policy.

They mopped up several trillions in naira for #NigeriaDecides2023, and that money

could go to waste if the monetary policy is not reversed before election day.

So in essence, THEY DON'T BLOODY CARE ABOUT "ordinary people", it's just their selfish interest in retaining power.

These men hoarded palliative during #COVID19; imagine such wickedness!

Therefore, fellow Nigerians, please get off the streets and allow the banks operate optimally and let the CBN fix this mess that we currently have

This 👆 is how we Nigerians behave, we actually always give our govt a long rope of patience, we don't protest withing one week.
