Be Vigilant!

So those provocative post's are from cloned @Twitter handles.

A fake Aisha Yesufu handle posted an old interview of Femi Adesina he granted @channelstv during the #RevolutionNow protest and presented it as Femi on #EndSARS. Fake handle created feb 2020.👇⁉️

A fake Mc Macaroni handle posted the attack on #EndSARS protesters in Abuja and gave it an ethnic coloration by labelling it Hausa Fulani attack.
It appears coordinated and well organised
A lot of @Twitter accounts opened in 2019 and 2020 are flooding timeliness.

To be safe, check a profile before you RT or respond to a provocative post or insult. You might be dealing with characters organised to spread misinformation or bait you into anger.

As Young Nigerians continue to lead #EndSars #EndPoliceBrutalityinNigeria

Yesterday, a @PoliceNG Officer opened up about his experience. I have since had conversations with 3 other officers.

*Statements not independently verified.

Key points here. 👇🏿
I will call this particular @PoliceNG Whistle-blower Officer A. He's based in one of the South West State, ranked as a Chief Superintendent of Police (CSP).
"This ( #EndSARS ) protest is the best thing that has happened to the force, tell them to take inventory of custody files"
"We write the name of suspect on ledger, if your DPO is corrupt, you will have 2 custody ledger, one is for official, the other one is for suspect that will roga *bribe and then they will be released, so it is like they never came to station" Officer A @PoliceNG #EndSARS

Thread! @PoliceNG Officer Speaks on #EndSars #EndPoliceBrutalityinNigeria

So a Compatriot who is serving in the Nigerian Police got in touch with me. The officer requested that the publication of the flowing, this was after a 30 minutes plus conversation on @telegram app. 👇🏿🇳🇬
For safety I will keep the name of the @PoliceNG officer out out. Hoping @NGRPresident and the Police can take note and verify independently.
1. The extortion of members of the public including #SARS is not with the @PoliceNG personnel on the road, it is institutional.
2. He claims @PoliceNG Commissioner's embezzles security vote meant for the upkeep of operational officers. Police divisions are meant to get welfare funds but it never trickles down to low ranking officers who now buy their own uniform, fuel car from funds extorted from public

@Murtalaibin

1. Airports is a National Strategic Security Asset.
2. We have a reason why we have a Airport Commandant in the airports.
3. Airforce base in on that same route, the family of officers have a right to move freely.
4. Your video is not conclusive.
The #EndSARS #EndPoliceBrutalityinNigeria protesters have been largely peaceful, all of you staying behind your gadgets and encouraging them to storm the Airports and strategic assets. You are plotting serious escalations, sadly innocent people are dying on both sides.
We all agree @MBuhari and @PoliceNG made a mess of this protest and they should be held accountable but protest organisers also have the responsibility and duty of care to people who join them, keep safe and don't give this mad dogs any excuse.
Learn from other protests.

On going protest across Nigeria against @PoliceNG brutality.

#SARS had been disbanded 4 times in 4 years but still operational.

Beyond an effective ban. Here are some of the short term actions the Nigerian government can take. 👇🏿
1. Immediately establish an independent public enquiry to be televised live, victims should be able to give open testimony and indicted @PoliceNG officers prosecuted.
2. Immediate audit and inspection of @PoliceNG SARS detention facilities across Nigeria by independent commission
3. Compensation to identified victims, immediate dismissal and were possible prosecution of officers who may have betrayed the trust to protect and serve the public.

4. Engage with members of various communities and pressure groups on police reform.

Dilemma across the world amongst oppressed people on the strategy for resistance, I will call it the Malcolm X (Before his pilgrimage to Mecca) BY ALL MEANS NECESSARY option and the Martin Luther King NON-VIOLENCE MEANS option. I was a student of both schools of thoughts.
As fresh student activists in the university of Jos, we had a firebrand inspiring activist named Basil Chianson. Basil, Chima Okereke, Ibrahim Sheu and Ismaila had been expelled for their 'radical' activism by the authorities. Their expulsion gave birth to my radicalism.
When we wrote letters requesting improved welfare conditions for students, especially those in the then neglected Abuja hostel. UNIJOS authorises never bugged. I was part of a delegate that attended meetings with then UNIJOS VC Professor Para Mallum. You got promises and nothing.

As student activists in UNIJOS, we actually celebrated the coup by Major Gideon Orkar on April 22, 1990, naively we mobilised then started a march towards 3rd Armoured Division to 'mobilise in support of the overthrow of General Babangida'

We were so glad IBB was 'gone', can't remember now. I think it was either @AbdulMahmud01 (then NANS President) or Benjamin Okonofua who knocked on my door and said 'Sankara it is over'. I was Sec-Gen of the Students Union Luka Dalang was President I had more or less overthrew him
Fell on myself, Kemi Afolayan (Asst Sec Gen) Benjamin Okonofua, Kashim Ibrahim I think, Abiodun Olamosu and a lot of members of the 'Movement' to mobilise Abuja hostel (Every "revolution" starts in Abuja' we did not think, we were charged, moved the entire Abuja, Babylon, Village
