EndSARS: Buhari finally speaks, fails to condemn attack on unarmed protesters by security operatives

However, across major cities in Abuja, Oyo and Delta, peaceful protesters were attacked by security operatives who used live bullets and tear gas to disperse the protesters.

Arguably, the worst of such incidents was the attack on protesters at the Lekki toll gate in Lagos on Tuesday when soldiers shot at peaceful protesters gathered there.The protests have since been hijacked by hoodlums who have killed police officers and attacked public and private facilities. In his address to Nigerians Thursday evening, the president condemned the violence but did not specificallty condemn the attack on the protesters; neither did be promise to ensure the shooters are brought to book.

He instead called on security operatives not to harm citizens while condeming the attacks on police officers. “And I call on all Nigerians to go about their normal businesses, and enjoin security agencies to protect lives and properties of all law abiding citizens without doing harm to those they are meant to protect. Let me pay tribute to officers of the Nigeria Police Force who have tragically lost their lives in the line of duty.”

And this is What ?

It is because security operatives only short hoodlums

All these executed in the name of the ENDSARS protests. I am indeed deeply pained that innocent lives have been lost. These tragedies are uncalled for and unnecessary. ... PMB

Please I need the address of the covid-19 killing them in china, the strong one, especially there mother. It has one important work to do.

Failed President

A speech with out empathy Kai Nigeria is lost with this man at the helm of affairs

Kudos for that headline I trust you!!!

And finally he spoke. we wish to announce the winner in the endsars protest competition ,and they are the police and other security operatives. Well done the endsars organisers.

Very unfortunate

All we want now is peace and not to mention what was not mentioned in the President's speech as that may not be taken lightly by some mischief-makers.

And while we EndSARS , let’s make their plan fail. I am not Yoruba. I am not Igbo. I am not Hausa. I AM A NIGERIAN. WeAreOneInNigeria

A very empty, clueless and disappointing Presidential Address from an unremorseful and unrepentant President. NCFront

Buhari an error ......Too shallow..this country I tire ..Oh God deliver us from this evil..we are already led into temptation with plenty confusion...💔😎

They know what they are doing. They dont have an empathy for human lives.

Mtcheww🚶🏽‍♀🚶🏽‍♀🚶🏽‍♀

Because its fake news

Country; Ruled by; U.S.A.: Donald Trump France: Emmanuel Macron Ghana: Nana Akufo-Addo Nigeria: So Called Protesters EndSARS

Point number 8 addresses it

Any nation where there's someone like Buhari as the President, can never, and will never prosper. The idiot didn't even made mention of the killings at Lekki Toll Gate, but he was quick to talk about the useless Oba's palace. What a shame 😠😠😠😠😠😠😠

u only know about the so called protesters right Why can't you ask about the killings in zamfara

I am seriously disappointed

That’s not a speech but a gibberish of the highest order!

His message is simple and clear 'Finish yourselves if you like but have it at the back of your mind that I'm going nowhere'

Enough signal to indicate who the 'forces beyond our control' is.

We no get presido

I truly love Nigeria because I was born a Nigerian which I've no choice, but after MBuhari speech, I've come to a conclusion that if the youths fails to unite and send these old fools from PDP or APC out of power by 2023.. I and my family are out for this country for ever..

Bubu spent 12mins to talk about 12days events. We have an insensitive president. Chaiii!!! We don enter one chance ooo

Speech not justified

, look at your president, am just speachless. Please follow me back and I follow

How can a state condemn act they carried out?They won’t not even with this government.

We want a speech, we got what made us all speechless

People dat knows d truth and r nt afraid to say it

Bitter Truth

Gbam!
