USA CAPITOL PROTEST AND MATTERS ARISING
Chinua Achebe said "Those who have had their kernels cracked for them by benevolent spirits should in turn, learn to be humble"
Simply sum up #CapitolRiots this way: Do not mock a pain that you haven't endured.
Nigerians can relate.
So let's have a few conversation around this.
Yoruba adage says if a compound is calm, it may just be because the bastard among them is still a toddler.
How did this #CapitolRiots start?
That same Trumpet Trump started it by saying TAKE IT BACK, just like your slang in Nigeriaš¤£
So here is it:
It was simply a PEACEFUL PROTEST, a FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT of Americans as ENSHRINED in American Constitution. So why did @CNN & other media outfit change the name of protesters to LOCAL TERRORISTS?
What's the offence of Trump that they blocked him on Social Media?š³
1. "All Animals are equal but some are more equal than others"....George Orwell
Let's start from here. For America & Americans, ALL PROTEST in Africa is ACCEPTABLE & LEGITIMATE.
For @CNN @Twitter @Facebook etc, once you see any PROTEST in Africa, it must never be stopped!
Just check the difference in approach. Jack the owner of twitter opened him platform for donation to support insurrection in Nigeria.
@CNN made their platform available for ANYONE who could add petrol to fire in Nigeria during #EndSARS protest. You see, all animals are not equal
