In Nigeria when subsidy is removed on petroleum, people protest & the whole country shuts down every activity & some patriots even die during the protest, but when hundreds of people are killed by sects using bombs, nobody stages protest, comments vehemently against the act or insults the president, because it didn't happen in their vicinity & none of their relatives are affected or because they are afraid to speak & get bombed too...
Where is that "Occupy Nigeria"?
Where is El-Rufai?
Where is Mr Tunde Bakere?
Where are the Celebrities????
Where are the Opposition Parties?
Where is NLC?
Where is Comrade Abdulwaheed Omar?
Where are Nigerians?
Were they all in the blast?
Why is everyone mute now?
Is Kano State not in Nigeria?
Now another blast in bauchi.
Is this not a more serious issue/reason for all Nigerians to wear black rags & truly OCCUPY NIGERIA with peaceful protest against mass killings of innocent ones? How safe are you now where you are? Yes! you reading this status & feeling safe.
Do we have energy & strength only on subsidy removal issues? Everyone is afraid now Abi??? dem no go occupy Nigeria again?
What a BIG SHAME
My heart is filled with mountain of grief, all toothless bulldogs can't even bark any more 'cos money is not involved for them to fight for.
This is disappointing! Broadcast if u feel the same, ignore if you don't.
what a silly post... This is just an expression of a short-sighted view. Bomb attacks on some states in the country is definitely much more disastrous than the removal of fuel subsidy, I admit! But, if you suggest a protest against Boko-Haram, I fear you are only digging your grave. Or you tell me which is easier to protest against a govt policy/a terrorist sect...?

who's head do u want this time around? Is it boko haram or badluck jonathan again?
Ur president sees all this as nothing as serious as fuel subsidy. Why dont u take it in good faith and vote for him in the next elections.
Nigerians we have a long way to go,instead of casting,gosiping and argueing,lets try to find so solution to our problems,we are not the first country to witness this kind of disastrous activities it same in othter country before setlement,i think we should emback on serious prayer and fasting,let the christain pray to their God,the muslim to their God,the traditional religion to their gods and i pray he will see us through.
