The Man Died
Days ago, Tiyamiyu Kazeem joined the unending list of Nigerians murdered by their 'protectors' & during protests over his death, the body count rose

The NPF says he was killed in a "hit & run", BUT MANY DON'T BELIEVE THE @PoliceNG

Calls for the reformation or dissolution of SARS have heightened & there's no telling how long this momentum will be sustained.

On #TheDiscuss today, we solemnly remember victims of extra judicial killings by the @PoliceNG as we collate recommendations for URGENT reforms.
We're pleased to welcome @JudeFeranmi to #TheDiscuss

Good morning, thanks for joining us despite your busy schedule

Nigerian Catholics will today participate in prayers & processions to kick off the Lenten season

The processions are in mourning & solidarity with the victims of kidnapping & other violent crimes as well as protesting the state of insecurity in Nigeria

Earlier this month, the General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye, led a procession to end the spate of insecurity & killings in Nigeria.

What does this kind of protest achieve?
Does it impact the political will to make needed adjustments?
What other support could be rendered in resolving our insecurity crises?

Today on #TheDiscuss, our concern is on NASS: State Police and the Risks of Empowering Governors.
How are state governors likely to manage this POWER and should Nigerians subscribe to this amendment?

Good morning Sir, welcome
Our security structure definitely needs fine-tuning. Calls for "localizing" security structures have led to efforts like Vigilante Group of Nigeria,OPC Youth wing, & recently, regional outfits like #amotekun
Has the centre failed?

We are at war.
But that's no longer news.
The Senate’s consideration for a bill to establish an agency of government funded by tax payers & seeking to offer a better lease of life to Born Again terrorists has passed first reading.

The proposed agency is expected to provide education for repentant insurgents while rehabilitating, deradicalizing & reintegrating them into society.  

Ex Gov of Yobe State & Senator representing Yobe East District I, Ibrahim Gaidam is the sponsor of the bill

HOW I WAS BRUTALISED & MY CAR VANDALISED BY POLICE INSPECTOR ANDY AMAMA OF ZONAL MONITORING, ZONE 6, CALABAR, CROSS RIVER

He hit my car, beat me to stupor, shot at me but missed, vandalised my car, arrested me & left with car key.

Yesterday night (October 5, 2019) around 8:30pm, I was driving alongside a colleague into Calabar from Ogoja.

We both work for a Pharmaceutical company & we're returning from official duties to supply drugs to a hospital with urgent need.

#EndPoliceBrutality
As we approached 8miles in Calabar, I was driving slowly on the lane close to culvert, I had almost overtook a black fully tinted Toyota Camry (2010-muscle), when I noticed that he was swerving towards me.
So I had to press my horn to draw his attention so as to avoid an accident

To celebrate #DonaldDuck's 85th birthday, I am gonna watch every DD theatrical cartoon in chronological order (minus the ones I just covered in my #Mickey90 megathread)

Mute the thread NOW if you would like to avoid seeing all of this!
Day 1: "The Wise Little Hen" (June 9, 1934)

Donald's 1st appearance, as a scene-stealing supporting actor in this Silly Symphony cartoon. He is paired w/Peter Pig, who will never have a role this good again. DD becomes an instant star, while Peter is demoted to background player
I think they know they have something here; they save Donald's intro for last, and give him a great entrance.

Also, WLH's singing voice is perfect, and Peter Pig's speaking voice is a true nightmare. You can feel his cartoon career ending the moment he opens his mouth.

Gombe State's @HEDankwambo employed 32 y.o John Okon to work in the Gov's residence in Kaduna. 8 Nov 2018, 4 TV sets were stolen from the premises. @PoliceNG arrested Mr. Okon & 4 othrs 9 Nov. 5 days later, they'd tortured him to death. This is his story
dailypost.ng/2018/11/23/gov…
Mr. Okon's wife, Joy, was very pregnant. They lived together within the premises of the Governor’s private residence located along Pola Road, off Swimming Pool Road, in Kaduna. The pemises had 2 uniformed @PoliceNG guards & 2 other guards from a private security provider
On 8 Nov, 4 theatre TV Cinemas were discovered missing from the premises. There were only 3 ways to explain this: the burglars by-passed the guards or overpowered them or, alternatively, the guards did it. On 8 Nov, however, the police arrested the 4 guards & Mr. Okon

A difficult question for a man protecting his job while lying to cover up the atrocities of his colleagues. Until they fire @YomiShogunle @PoliceNG_PCRRU is dead to most Of us. The Police is NOT your friend. The earlier U realize this the longer you live. #EndSARS #ReformPoliceNG
Shogunle & Jimoh Moshood are both victims of the system just like the rogue SARS & evidence planting DPOs & however foolish they act in public to impress their benefactors, we must not express hate towards them but hold them to account until they are relieved of their duties.
In my neighborhood there was a distress call on an ongoing robbery. I wasn’t around, they called 112 & they were promised the police station in the jurisdiction will be alerted. Hours later no help came. The residence had to organize how to apprehend the armed robbers.

Without trying to justify the actions of the rogue SARS/Police officers on our streets, let us examine a few of our findings in-depth as to the whys behind their resolve. Who made monsters of these men? 🤔 #EndSARS #ReformPoliceNG
It will interest you all that the other ranks encountered at the police stations live under the worst conditions you can imagine. Meanwhile in such deplorable state, rents are being deducted from their salaries by their superiors without accountability. #EndSARS #ReformPoliceNG
Visit the Baracks across Nigeria, see for yourself what I mean. Overflowing soakaways, leaking pipes, caved in ceilings etc. If U have no GodFather, U may spend 30years in Service without promotion or salary rising above N75k regardless of your education. #EndSARS #ReformPoliceNG
