Gbajabiamila, Fayose, Soyinka React To Lekki Shootings -

Gbajabiamila: Too much blood has been spilled in our country Events in my home state Lagos, last night and up until this afternoon, have left my heart heavy and my spirit disturbed. After sixty years, our democracy should have grown beyond the point where conflicting visions of nationhood result in violence on the streets and blood on the ground. It is unavoidably and painfully clear that there were a number of casualties as a result of gunfire at the Lekki Toll Gate. Therefore, there needs to be a quick and thorough investigation to determine the facts of what happened last night in Lagos. Our nation urgently needs and the Nigerian people deserve an accounting of the acts that led to the events of last night. I urge for calm whilst we get a truer picture of events. In Lagos and everywhere else, too much blood has already been spilled in our country, let there be no more. May God bless and keep you all. And may God bless and keep our Federal Republic of Nigeria. Femi Gbajabiamila Lekki shootings: Life doesn’t matter to a clueless leader - Fayose My heart is heavy. Like every other concerned Nigerians, I'm worried. I'm sad that soldiers were sent to shoot at our youths, who were only expressing their anger against the system. I sympathize with families of those who lost their lives and pray that God will heal the injured However, the sad reality we must face now is that the current situation in our nation is as result of allowing a clearly incompetent man to ascend to the highest office in the land. I saw all these coming and I warned Nigerians. You can’t wear a white robe on a pig. Life does not matter to a clueless leader whose only fulfilment is that he is called Mr President. He cares about no one except himself. That's why up till now, the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Federal Republic of Nigeria has not said a word. Sad! These are soldiers behaving so responsibly. If the soldiers that went to Lekki last night had behaved like these ones, our nation would have been saved all these loss of lives and properties. Sad! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TE-l37CuuC8 Nigerian soldiers could not combat Boko Haram, Armed Bandits, Kidnappers and killer herdsmen but can kill innocent young protesters. This is simply a function of bad leadership in our country. Shame on them and their commanders. Ayodele Fayose #EndSARS: We’re ‘back to Abacha’ days, Soyinka says "It is absolutely essential to let this government know that the Army has now replaced SARS in the demonic album of the protesters." Nobel laureate, Wole Soyinka, has condemned the shooting of peaceful protesters in Lekki, Lagos, on Tuesday evening, saying the army has replaced the notorious Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS). In a statement on Wednesday, Mr Soyinka accused the federal government of acting in an “authoritarian manner” by deploying armed soldiers on the protesters. “It is absolutely essential to let this government know that the Army has now replaced SARS in the demonic album of the protesters,” said Mr Soyinka. “My enquiry so far indicates that the Lagos governor did not invite in the Army, did not complain of a ‘breakdown in law and order’. Nevertheless, the Centre has chosen to act in an authoritarian manner and has inflicted a near incurable wound on the community psyche. “Need I add that, on arrival in Abeokuta, my home town, I again had to negotiate a roadblock? That went smoothly enough. I expected it, and have no doubt that more are being erected as this is being written. It is pathetic and unimaginative to claim, as some have done, that the continued protest is hurting the nation’s economy etc. etc. “COVID-19 has battered the Nigerian economy – such as it is – for over eight months. Of course, it is not easy to bring down COVID under a hail of bullets – human lives are easier target, and there are even trophies to flaunt as evidence of victory – such as the blood-soaked Nigerian flag that one of the victims was waving at the time of his murder.” Soldiers opened fire on peaceful protesters at the Lekki toll gate on Tuesday evening, killing several youth. At least, 25 people sustained gun shot wounds, according to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu. The governor, however, said no fatality was recorded in the shooting. In his statement, Mr Soyinka said as he resumed his trip to Abeokuta at 6 a.m. today, he negotiated nearly 15 roadblocks “all distinguished by an implacable state of rage.” “It was in stark contrast to the inclusivity of the protesting ‘family of common cause’ of earlier days,” he said. “All inherent beauty of instant bonding and solidarity evaporated. At the block just before the Lagos Secretariat, the protesters proved the most recalcitrant. In the end, they exacted from me just the one offering to the rites of passage – I could sense it coming — I had to come down from the car and addressed them. I did. “Little did they know what was churning in my mind: This is not real. This is Back to Abacha – in grotesque replay.'” The Nobel laureate called on the affected governors across the country to immediately demand the withdrawal of deployed soldiers. “Convoke Town Hall meetings as a matter of urgency. 24- hr Curfews are not the solution. Take over the security of your people with whatever resources you can rummage. Substitute community self-policing based on Local Councils, to curb hooligan infiltration and extortionist and destructive opportunism. “We commiserate with the bereaved and urge state governments to compensate material losses, wherever. To commence any process of healing at all – dare one assume that this is the ultimate destination of desire? — the Army must apologize, not merely to the nation but to the global community – the facts are indisputable – you, the military, opened fire on unarmed civilians. “There has to be structured restitution and assurance that such aberrations will not again be recorded. Then both governance and its security arms can commence a meaningful, lamentably overdue dialogue with society. Do not attempt to dictate — Dialogue.”
