BREAKING !!!: Revolution Now: 60 Arrested In Cross River, Lagos, Others — Sowore’s Lawyer Says

Image
Mr Inibehe Effiong, who is the human rights lawyer, has claimed that no fewer than 60 protesters may have been arrested by the police in the states where the #RevolutionNow protest took place on Monday. Mr Inibehe Effiong, who is also the National Legal Adviser of the African Action Congress, lamented that the clampdown on the protesters was an ominous sign of greater danger to come, adding that Nigeria was no longer practising democracy. He said, “In Ogun State alone, we learnt that about 20 protesters were arrested, while nine were arrested in Lagos. In Cross Rivers, Ondo, Kwara, Nigerians were also arrested for demanding their rights. “The militarisation is unwarranted. There is no need for this primitive deployment of state power to quell an ordinary civic response to the situation in the country. The government, the police and the army did not need to do this. “Even the manner they went about it clearly shows that Nigeria is not a democratic country. When

Break-up not solution to Nigeria’s problems — Osinbajo

Image
Oladimeji Ramon  and Olaleye Aluko The Vice-President, Prof Yemi Osinbajo, has said there is no truth in the thinking that the different regions of the country would prosper individually if the country breaks up. He said Nigeria needed to learn from the example of Sudan, which split into northern and southern Sudan in the belief that that was the solution to the country’s internal strife. Also citing the case of Somalia, the Vice-President argued that the fact that people speak the same language and practise the same religion was no guarantee that they would live in harmony. The Vice-President spoke in Lagos on Tuesday at the 70th anniversary lecture of the Lagos Country Club. He spoke on the theme, ‘Promoting national cohesion as a means of promoting progress and prosperity.’ Osinbajo, while pointing out that diversity could either be a trigger for conflict or a fountain of prosperity and progress, urged Nigerians to embrace the latter like the United States of Ameri
