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 Nigeria🤣
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?😳
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
To them, Africa is just a conquered territory since they have a lot of #SlavesByChoice individuals to use.
During any protest in Africa, who are the ones they VERIFY? Those who can add more inciting statement.
Who are the ones to interview? Those who can incite the people further
Till date, @cnni will not call what happened in Lagos a TERRORIST ATTACK. Roads were blocked, Lagos-Ibadan blocked for days, Some of us couldn't drop our children in their Schools. Police & Police Stations burnt because of #EndSARS. Define INSURRECTION

Listen there's nothing they did out of ordinary by entering the #CapitolBuilding on that day. People took #EndSARS protest to the Nigeria National Assembly, it was well accepted as their FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT by @CNN & the International media. Any difference?

When the Military stopped #EndSARS protesters at the National Assembly in Abuja, it was called absurdity. When the National Guard was delayed at the #CapitolBuilding because Trump was not in his right mind, @CNN & Americans were calling that FAILURE🤣🤣

Tell me what the Protesters at the #CapitolHill did that was not done 100 fold in Nigeria DEMOCRACY.
People literally went to block Airport in Nigeria & was well supported by International Media from USA as a legit process.
@CNN @StephanieBusari supported the insurrection.
So the protesters went to #CapitolBuilding just like protesters went to the National Assembly here.
Did they stop them on time in Nigeria? YES.
Did they stop them on time in your saner clime? NO.
What was the outcome? DEATH, CURFEW.
@cnni began to call US protesters TERRORISTS🤣
