His media aide,Tunde Rahman released a press statement on Saturday...
The statement reads: “There is a need to set the facts and record straight for fear that such a fake story may be taken on its face value by some unwary and gullible persons.
Asiwaju Tinubu could not have sponsored the #EndSARS protest that has blocked one of the main entries into and out of Lagos and one of the economic arteries of the Lagos State Government. He could also not have sponsored such a protest where he too has been labelled a target by the organizers.
Secondly, whereas Asiwaju Tinubu believes in the right of Nigerians to freedom of expression, assembly, and protest where and when necessary, he has always canvassed the need for people to explore peaceful channels to ventilate their views and demands.
He believes the #EndSARS protesters have made their demands, which the Federal Government is studying. Like most Nigerians, Asiwaju believes that SARS’ brutality and untoward conduct against innocent youths and other Nigerians have gone on for too long and that security outfit ought to be disbanded as demanded by the protesters.
“Asiwaju Tinubu believes it’s now time for our youths to wait, exercise restraint for dialogue and reform to commence. It is therefore the height of illogicality to ascribe the sponsorship of the protest to Asiwaju. The sponsors of this fake news forget that the protest is so widespread and cuts across the country.”
There's nothing like peaceful channel on Nigerian issues. If Buhari can negotiate with Boko Haram to an extent freeing Sokoto Kabiru the mastermind of the Christmas eve bomb blast in Niger state, why can't he negotiate with the youths all along for a better Nigeria? The only language they listen to is when the nation have been grounded by protesters.
ReplyDeleteIt was a slap on our face to disband SARS and at the same day came up with SWAT. Are they mad? Do they think we are stupid like them?
We are ready this time for them. It's now or never. Enough is Enough.
Tinubu is a disgrace. He thinks by concocting the above story, he'll look like he's on the side of the youths. What a joker. Enough is Enough.

Baba keep shut, your thugs are among those disrupting the protests, all these old greedy men that want to ruin naija May God punish una.
DeleteBunch of useless old men!!! We say enough to your endless promises and corruption.
DeleteLol his business aka tollgate is loosing revenue. Desperation is at work. They will say anything to get the protesters off the road. If it doesn’t work, they will get very aggressive and start threatening the celebs individually via calls and texts since they are the ones championing the protests.
DeleteJagaban is not receiving daily money generating from the toll gates very funny now he wants to join the ENDSARS protest
ReplyDeleteThis is exactly what I wanted to say!..🤣🤣
DeletePoint of correction, the protest didn't cut through the country, it's only halfway through because the Northern youths are not with us and conspicuously staying away from our struggles.
DeleteBecause your struggles is against SARS. Police officers in the north are well behaved. I'm a southerner in the north east and I can tell you SARS helped in the fight against insurgents. When the north was protesting against insecurity did you guys join them? Insurgents have killed more Northerners than the whole of NPF have killed in the 60yrs of Nigeria's existence
Delete@Saphire, pls say what you know. Protest was held in kaduna yesterday. Meeting point was station round about and it was indeed peaceful.
DeleteAiit,seen
ReplyDeleteThese politicians should just respect themselves and shut the hell up! Since protesters blocked lekki toll gate pepper just dey pepper them😏
DeleteMtcheeeew...
ReplyDeleteYour time is coming.
Jagaban should better not say anything. He his one of Nigeria problem. corrupt old man
ReplyDeleteTinubu you are part of the problem so you cannot proffer any solution...
ReplyDeleteExactly
DeleteIs he asking the youths to back down? This was a man that took part in almost every protests organised against Jonathan's government but that can't be said of him in this present administration because of his personal interest. Tinubu and his likes rode on the back of protest, masquerading themselves as democrats only to go quiet the moment they took over power. The Nigerian youths now know better. We will come after all of you in no distant time. For now, keep enjoying your ill gotten wealth.
ReplyDeleteAll wicked politicians will perish this year
ReplyDeleteAmen,
DeleteLong hiss to whatever he has to say cuz i didnt bother reading.
Gbam! !!!. Heartless and greedy set of people.
DeleteJust hearing that he was accused of d above. Looks like they concocted ds & trying to curry favor from Nigerians? We can’t be deceived, bcoz he was & still is directly or indirectly part of “All” we are going through today. No pity for a wicked man.
ReplyDeleteYou said it all, he is part of the problem Nigerians are going through.
DeleteYou made up the story by yourself nobody has time to label you such.

ReplyDeleteRadarada
Didn't bother reading...just want to say that you are one of the problems of this nation #longhiss
ReplyDeleteBuhari and his northern advisors believe #EndSARS is sponsored, I've received calls from 2 people inside his camp asking who sponsored the protest with style.
ReplyDeleteThey don't understand how young people can organize a protest and crowd fund money. Buhari is still taking this thing as a joke. He doesn't understand social media and its reach. They don't understand how frustration and pain can cause this movement.
We are winning this
