Don’t Be Distracted, #EndSARS Movement Tells Protesters

The Osun State EndSARS Movement has urged protesters not to relent in their demands for good governance, an end to police brutality and other inadequacies of the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government.

The group, in a statement by its spokesperson, Olawale Bakare; Mobilisation Secretary, Ogunleye Olushayo; and Organising Secretary, Olawale Ogunruku, commended the resilience and doggedness of the youths who stormed the streets of Osogbo earlier on Monday.


The statement read, “Although we expressly commend the line of demands of today’s protest, we also wish to inform the general public to beware of state-sponsored individuals who might be sent to keep public agitations low and tasteless.

“They would only pretend to fight alongside the genuine agitators, but they are secretly working with the government to keep the people’s voice low and divided. We enjoin the general public to watch out for “contract-protesters” who are only acting the scripts of their paymasters. 

“Again, we would like to reiterate that the entire #EndSARS Movement Osun State would always give support and solidarity to protesters who wish to project the revolutionary agenda of our great movement. We stand solidly behind any group of persons who are genuinely ready to fight for the collective emancipation and liberation of Nigerian people in general.

“We use this medium to call on all serious-minded and well-meaning youths in Osun to prepare for massive actions that will include the rank and file of all oppressed people of Osun State and the Nigerian state at large.

“All Nigerians, male and female, old and young, civil servants and informal workers, are at this moment invited to lend their voices by participating in the massive protest that would be launched soonest. The date and time of our peaceful protest shall be communicated in the last days. 

“We at this moment enjoin our comrades to remain peaceful and continue mobilising by building revolutionary forces across the entire state of Osun. The time to liberate ourselves from the shackles of corruption, oppression, bad governance, economic and political slavery is now. And no one can stop an idea whose time has come.”

Buhari’s Legacy Of Recessions By Fredrick Nwabufo

Fredrick Nwabufo ‘Why always Buhari?’ As it was in 1984 under General Buhari, so it is in 2016 and 2020 under President Buhari? Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs? If the recession of the 80s under Buhari was a conspiracy by economic and political factors, to what do we attribute that of his first coming as a civilian President — and now in his second coming? Why does pestilence scourge the land, hunger ravage the population and lives lost malevolently when Buhari presides over the country? Why always Buhari? Buhari’s undoing is his wonted predilection for hierarchising ethnicity, religion and loyalty above competence. Since 1999, no President has obtrusively shown a more nepotistic aspect than Buhari. It is unarguable that the President arrays the most competence-challenged cabinet ever in the chronicle of governance in Nigeria. Yes, a recession cabinet. Fredrick Nwabufo Here is a cabin...

TYPES OF DRAMA II

Comedy: We use the words 'comedy' and comic to describe something that is funny in our everyday lives. These include a joke or a fantastic story that is full of nonsense, or an absurd appearance that makes us giggle, smile or laugh. Comedy is not inherent in things or people but the way things/people are perceived. Comedy is a deliberate presentation of events/experiences drawn from real life but not the same with real life. We should therefore not expect dramatic comedy to be the same as real life. Generally, the plays have good endings or resolutions, so when a play ends happily, we refer to it as comedy. In most comedies, the principal characters begin in a state of opposition either to one another or to their world or both. By the end of the play their opposition .is replaced by harmony. Aristotle in-.his “Poetics” insisted that in tragedy men are shown “better than they are”, while in comedy “worse than they are”. For him it is an artistic imitation of men of inferi...
