We are back to Abacha Era-Protesters Tell Nigerian

…..AS DSS arrests leader of Bakare in Osogbo

The #RevolutionNow protesters have revealed that Nigeria is now back to the Sani Abacha Era where bad governance, lack of infrastructure, extrajudicial activities and poverty is second to none
Based on this the protesters in their numbers asked President Muhammadu Buhari to resign honorably, saying Nigeria is now ventilator, gasping for breath
Protesters were dispersed at earlier scheduled venue Unity Fountain by the combined team of police, Army, Air force, and some paramilitary personnel were deployed.
The #RevolutionNow protesters later re-converged at the Berger roundabout in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) to pass their message asking President Muhammadu Buhari to resign.
While speaking the Convener of Concerned Nigerians, Deji Adeyanju alleged 62 protesters were arrested so far.
“We are back to the Abacha days and this is most unfortunate. We are back to time again in our national life when the government of the day has criminalized peaceful protests.
“Today we witnessed flogging, beating, harassing and arresting of peaceful protesters in the nation’s capital by a joint task force of security agencies.
“Many of us begin to wonder if this is what our democracy has come to be. It is most regrettable and unfortunate.
But this is the sad and painful reality that we have found ourselves today. Alas, this is where we are as a nation,” Adeyanju said.
“There is a need for us to allow people who are determined and who have the interest of the people to take over leadership and that is why we are saying no to APC, no to PDP and no to all the rascals in political authority.
“I want to call on all Nigerians that nobody should feel so comfortable in their bedrooms. Nobody should feel so comfortable in their houses, because this country is not safe, this country is not secure. Nobody is secure.
“Even in Nigeria today police and soldiers are not secured. Even today, Generals cannot walk alone on the street.
” I want us to know that if we don’t take our future in our hands if we don’t take our destiny in our hands, this country would continue to remain like this.
“There is no single sector in the Nigerian social system that is working today. If you look at the educational system, it is in shambles, if you look at the economy, it is in a total mess.
“This is because we have people who lack focus, who lack direction, who lack sympathy and who are selfish in positions of authority and that is why I myself as a legal practitioner, as someone who believes in the Revolution Now struggles have come out to identify with this cause.
In the latest development, news coming from Osogbo in Osun state southwest has it that, the co-convener of Revolution Now in Osun State, Olawale Bakare and others have been arrested by operatives of the Department of Secret Service (DSS) during a peaceful protest.
Bakare and other members of the movement numbering about six were arrested on Wednesday morning while they were addressing journalists at a popular junction, Ola-Iya.
The protesters who were armed with placards with several inscriptions against bad governance, lack of infrastructure, extrajudicial activities and others were arrested in the presence of policemen
The Gleamer News gathered that over 40 members of the group have been arrested by the Police and Department of State Security DSS.
