No one you tag can save us. We can only save ourselves. So we must begin now. I am still thinking of the how, but we have not come this far to stop. Too many people have died. Please let’s start thinking of how.
We know what to do in 2023. For sure. We know that we must get our PVCs and protect our votes. But I am saying now, what do we do from today, because we cannot let this go.
Let me tell you the people Of Odi asked themselves this same question, but they couldn’t get an answer. The people of the Niger Delta had an answer and it was violence. The Shiites still don’t have answer, but they have an example to look up to.
This is a good step, but it’s still hoping against hope. I am still thinking, I don’t believe it’s impossible to win.
I think the answer is simple, but because it is right in front of us, we ignore it.

We keep protesting peacefully and without a leader until they do everything here.

Let me explain why I think so
1. For them to be killing us, they know we’re doing something right, if not they would have ignored us.

We need to keep protesting peacefully.

Also...
2. We cannot afford to be reactive. We started this with a plan. It is clear as day and it is the best plan. All they are doing is trying to get us confused to change our plan.

We need to keep protesting.

But....
3. We need to make a few changes so we don’t lose more people. 2 massive protests per state, maybe 3 in the case of Lagos. The more we are in a place, the more difficult it is for thugs to disrupt and for them to come and kill.

Something else....
4. We need a better way to cover the protests. They turned off the light at the Lekki Toll gate, if we are staying the night, we need our own lights, they are evil, they need darkness to operate.

In summary....
5. #SustainTheProtest
Massive protests in 1 or 2 places.
Lights and Drones and phones always.

We started this, we must stick to our game plan. Our dead must not have died in vain.

Just to be CLEAR.

We did nothing wrong. Our demands were clear. Our protests were peaceful.

They responded with evil and destruction. We will rest, but we will not stop. Image
PLEASE. I know how easy it is to doubt ourselves. People have been killed. Gaslighting is in full effect. The older generation is saying ‘We told you so’ ‘We told you to select a leader’

RESIST.

We are going about it the right way, we will rest, but we will not stop.
For now let us stay how we have been. Truthful, peaceful and speak loud and clearly. That they responded with violence is because they know we are right.

We will not rest. We will not stop.

Fight fake news.
Rest your feet.

Guys. Here are the things we need to do next to #SustainTheProtest

1. 2 massive protests alone per state. We can’t be scattered about.

We need mass numbers to stay safe. #EndSARS
2. Justice. Lagos state seems to be ready to play ball. If you know anyone in Lagos who needs justice due to police brutality.

They should send an email with as much evidence as they have to - judicialpanelonsars@lagosstate.gov.ng or call the numbers. #JusticeforSARSvictims Image
3. We have demanded that @jidesanwoolu air the panel at work on TV, we need to see it. But in case he doesn’t if you call those numbers, record the call, if you email them, take a screenshot of replies and post on Twitter with #JusticeforSARSvictims

We must follow up.
