The FG and many respected Nigerians appealed to the youths to end the protest because of hijack by same government sponsored hoodlums. The #EndSARS protesters were promised to stop the protest with a promise to look into their demands.
They agreed and stopped the protest only for the government to freeze the accounts of notable amongst the protesters and have some in jail. Those in hospitals are being threatened instead of being cared for. Families of those who lost their dear ones cannot come out for the fear they will be killed or jailed.
Is this the right way of looking into our Nigerian youths demands? The best thing expected of a responsible government is to critically look into every point raised in the course of the protest and address them squarely to avoid the repeat of such embarrassing events in Nigeria.
Honestly, FG of Nigeria should know by now that there's a massive hunger in the land. An hungry man is an angry man. Angry Nigerians are more than the happy ones. The implications are that angry Nigerians are like time bombs waiting to explode with little provocation.
Instead of government addressing the serious issues raised with other burning issues affecting Nigerians, It's been widely reported that the bank accounts of notable 20 EndSARS supporters were frozen by the Central Bank of Nigeria after it got court order to do so. This particular act by the Central Bank has sparked a lot of negative and angry reactions from Nigerians on social media as they expressed their displeasure towards this recent development. Why would a government that ought to be handling burning issues be busy pursuing shadows? Why can't FGN devotes more energy to freezing Boko Haram terrorists sponsors accounts all over the world?
A CBN that can't manage or regulate Nigeria economy very well is now pursuing innocent Nigerians while failing in all its primary responsibilities to Nigerians. It is debasing and abuse of office as against international best practices all over the world.
