#EndSARS: Security agencies are ready for you – FG tells protesters

The Federal Government has said that security agencies are ready to stop another version of the #EndSARS protests at Lekki Toll Gate in Lagos.

The Minister of Information and Culture, Alh. Lai Mohammed, who made the announcement, said any protest to block the toll gate would not be tolerated.

According to the Minister, protests are constitutionally allowed only in designated places but not toll gates.

The protesters planned to reconvene in the Lekki Toll Gate on Saturday for another protest.

The Minister said: “However, any further resort to violence in the name of #EndSARS will not be tolerated this time.

“The security agents are ready for any eventuality. A situation in which six soldiers and 37 policemen were murdered in cold blood by hoodlums will not repeat itself.

“The attack, looting and razing of 269 private and public property will not happen again. The killing of 57 civilians will not be re-enacted.

“No government anywhere will allow a repeat of the kind of destruction, killing and maiming wrought by the hijackers of #EndSARS protests last year.

“After all, only one policeman – (plus four others) – was killed in the invasion of the US Capitol in January, yet the FBI has continued to hunt down and prosecute the perpetrators. No life is more important than the other.”

Mohammed warned those planning the protest to shelve it.

He said intelligence report indicated that some of those planners are not in Nigeria.

He added: “We therefore strongly warn those who are planning to re-occupy Lekki Toll Gate on Saturday to desist.

“We know that many of those who have been loudest on social media in advertising the plan to reconvene in Lagos on Saturday are not even in Nigeria.

“They are elsewhere around the world fanning the embers of violence and inciting gullible people back home. No one should fall for their antics,” he added.

Lol! This is funny… The Senior Pastor of Household of God Church, Rev. Chris Okotie has been in war with Independent Independent National Elections Commission for not. Re-registering his party Fresh Democratic Party, FDP. He threatened that INEC is playing with fire if his party is denied the chance of contesting for the 2015 presidential elections. Rev. Okotie who is also the presidential candidate of his party, is in a bad state despite the fact that a Federal High court in Abuja had ruled that INEC should re-register his party after it was de-registered which the election body has refused to comply with the court directives. I’m sure you all remember Okotie claimed that God told him to contest every election, the same Okotie is now threatening INEC and Nigeria that if he is not allowed to run, then there will be trouble in country.

Chris Okotie Writes about the NIS Recruitment Stampede

Pastor Chris Okotie of Household of God International Ministries posted this an article on his official Facebook page on the tragic stampede at the Nigeria Immigration Service recruitment. Read; The big news this week was the inauguration of the National Conference, but the deaths of more than 16 young applicants who died in Abuja and other venues, during the Nigerian Immigration Service, NIS recruitment exercise, overshadowed it. This tragedy mirrors the desperate situation of Nigeria. One only hopes that this unfortunate loss of lives, coupled with the incessant Boko Haram killings and other youth-based violence, would serve as a wake-up call to the summiteers, that this country needs a new governance paradigm. If the conference cannot produce that, then the over N7 billion invested in it would amount to another colossal waste of our scarce national resources. It is an irony that each delegate would earn a whopping N12 million for the 3-month duration of the...
