Fellow Countrymen,

Recall that I did a rejoinder to Amb. I.H. Coomassie, that his utterances calling for the killing of #EndSARS protesters constitute a crime under international law. I also wrote to sister Human Rights organizations, of which he is a member, requesting that...
he be striped of his Award Title, properly sanctioned and prosecuted. However, today, Ambassador I. Hussaini Coomassie has issued an apology, and also going further to endorse the #EndSARS movement.

Should I 'forgive' him, or I should continue with the food I'm cooking for him?
Here it is; making statements capable of birthing mass bloodbath, genocide or pogrom is a serious crime under international law.

It flouts everything the sanctity of life and right to life stands upon.

Life is a sacred order.

His statement has led to death of many Nigerians.
That genocidal statement from Ambassador I. Hussaini Comassie amplified the dutch courage and sinister motive enemies of the #EndSARS movement. It opened the nationwide the floodgate of attacks members of #EndSARS movement are experience all over.
It is our considered opinion that Amb. Coomassie is not fit to be called an 'Ambassador', neither is he worthy of any 'award' whatsoever.

Ever since he made that that declaration, calling for the killing of members of #EndSARS
movement, members of the movement have experienced
unimaginable, unprecedented, wicked, crude and cruel level of attacks; members are being hacked to death, whilst others are being shot at by thugs and the @PoliceNG.

I never knew the man was a 'soprano' singer. And a humble one for that matter....

Our Stand On the Ongoing #EndSARS Protests.

Our attention has been drawn to an outrageous action by one Yusuf Ahmadu Yunusa and his ilks who claim to have acted on behalf of the indigenous people of Abuja. According to media reports, Yusuf and his people claim that the
indigenous people of Abuja are against the protests going on across the country. We wish to categorically dissociate ourselves from Yusuf and the actions of his gang. We find his claims offensive and insulting to the countless Gbagyi youths who have been harassed and extorted
by the now defunct Special Anti-Robbery Squad.

Gbagyi people the world over are known to be hospitable and for upholding the dignity and sanctity of human life. We have, over the years, condemned the extrajudicial killings of Nigerian youths by policemen. While we condemn any

"Indeed, the evidence before the trial court was quite overwhelming and points to the guilt of the appellant. Situation like this whereby policeman rashly bring out their guns (albeit to merely threaten or frighten citizens) is rapidly becoming rampant.

#EndSARS
They are meant to use the guns to safeguard the lives of the citizenry they are paid to protect, but the reverse is the case. A policeman will not hesitate to pull the trigger of his gun at the slightest provocation, and would indeed do that with
relish and reckless abandon, not caring whether the consequence of his act will be fatal. The incident in the instant cases is a locus classicus. A law enforcement agent who is supposed to bring sanity and order on the road brings out his gun and fires

"Let me observe here, that it is becoming very notorious and most disturbing these days when policemen, use guns purchased for them with public money and meant for the protection of the citizenry are freely used to mow down innocent citizens of this country with reckless
and careless abandon and in each cases or every event, the aggressive policeman, is heard to say and rely on “accidental discharge”. Enough, I think is enough. Unless the courts put down their feet so to speak and make it
abundantly clear to our policemen in this country, that never again will such plea or defence be available to any of them accused of murder or acceptable by the courts, then of course, Nigerians will continuously be

"The uncontroverted evidence before the court is that the Appellant and the two other convicts , each armed with the rifle officially assigned to him for his official duties as a police officer agreed to go and rob the victims of their money.
In the course of their criminal adventure and in an apparent bid to overcome resistance or prevent escape one of them shot and killed one of the victims of the robbery, Mamodu Abdullahi Ajawo.

#EndSARS
In the same escapade and for the purpose of achieving their self same common end, one of them shot into the vehicle. The shot hit a jerry can of petrol and ignited a fire which burnt down the vehicle and four persons in it to death"-

#EndSARS

"The 1st Appellant, D.S.P. God'spower Nwankwoala was on the 23/12/2000 the Divisional Police Officer incharge of the "B" Division Police Station Makurdi. At about 8.15 p.m. of the 23/12/2000 the 1st Appellant leading a team of four other policemen in a police ALGON

From my WhatsApp. An engaging read.

DON'T GET IT TWISTED.

SARS is not going around committing heinous crimes because Police Salaries are low. No, this does not have anything to do with low salaries...
It has to do with the fact that the Police Hierarchy was collecting over 500k from young policemen to transfer them into SARS.

The drive to make back their initial investment and deliver the money quotas to the same hierarchy is what has been driving the impunity
and the brutality. The hierarchy protects them and so the impunity increases. It is the biggest money ring that the police hierarchy has ever operated.
To get proper reform, the government must first dismantle the police Hierarchy that has been frustrating reform.
