Aisha Yesufu & EndSARS: History Will Be Kind To This Woman In End SARS Campaign -
~1.7 mins read
This woman Aisha Yesufu and many other women REPRESENT all shades of courage. History will be kind to her when her actions are written on the checkered pavements of mortals.

While many cared less, many others jumped into the #ENDSARSNOW campaign because they like trends. Either ways its appreciated. This woman has never been silent from day one. She supported this government to power but has never stop lashing out at them and done everything to hold the government accountable. she has stood her ground at all times. Cowards die many times before their time but Aisha is far from being a coward. She is a patriot.

She was called unprintable names by agents of evil and Detractors. She kept moving. Today I celebrate her for her COURAGE, TEMERITY, VALOUR, INTREPIDNESS, PLUCK AND AUDACITY. I also celebrate her husband for allowing her be her. Her husband deserves some accolades and men must learn from him on what it means to allow women chase their dreams. We celebrate Runtown for setting the pace in Lagos before other celebrities followed. Dr Dipo Awojide and Wizkid held sway in London. Davido flew down to Abuja to join. The campaign travelled round the globe and Nigeria was on the news till the pressure built up.

The precedent has been set and we shall not look back.

Police has no right to slap you, search your phone or call you criminal. That's the duty of the court. Our live matters. Well done to all who participated online or offline to #EndSARS

The Rivers State Police Command has rescued a two-week-old baby boy, who was allegedly sold by the grandmother at birth for N1.3million.

According to the police, Antonia Amos, sold the child because she claimed her daughter’s babydaddy had yet to pay her bride price.

It was gathered that Amos was arrested after the father of the baby, Christian Duru reported the case to the police.

The Commissioner of Police (CP), Joseph Mukan, said the suspect led the Detectives to Ukanafun LGA in Akwa-Ibom State where one Pauline Umoh was arrested. She later led the Police to Mgbidi in Imo State where the buyer, Juliana Obianwa was arrested and the baby recovered.

~0.6 mins read
Erling Braut Haaland scored his first international hat-trick as Norway cruised to Nations League victory against Romania.

Borussia Dortmund's star striker was in devastating form and put the home side ahead inside 15 minutes.

Norway doubled their lead just before half-time thanks to a goal from RB Leipzig's Alexander Sorloth.

Two second-half goals took Haaland's tally for Norway to an impressive six goals in six games.

The victory comes just days after Norway lost to Serbia in their Euro 2020 play-off semi-final and they now sit top of their Nations League Group B1 with Northern Ireland up next.

Norway have scored in each of their last 18 matches since a 1-0 Nations League defeat against Bulgaria in September 2018 - their longest scoring streak since a run of 20 from November 1950 to August 1953.

ENDSARS Protest: About 100,000 People Unfollow Buhari On Twitter — In 24 Hours
~2.0 mins read

Approximately 100,000 people have unfollowed President Muhammadu Buhari on Twitter as a sign of protest of his management of the current policing crisis across the nation.

A new wave of protests to end the activities of the special anti-robbery squad of the Nigerian Police Force (SARS) has been sweeping across the globe in the last 96 hours, calling on the president to scrap that unit of the nation’s police.

Buhari did not respond to the protesters until Friday night when he tweeted a photo from a meeting with the inspector general of police (IGP) and Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo.

The president said he has asked the IGP to address the issues and lead a police reform.

“The IG already has my firm instructions to conclusively address the concerns of Nigerians regarding these excesses, and ensure erring personnel are brought to justice,” Buhari tweeted

“I appeal for patience and calm, even as Nigerians freely exercise their right to peacefully make their views known.”

Nigerians were not impressed by Buhari’s response, and decided to continue the protests nationwide — gaining traction internationally as one of the top trends across the world.

THE CALL TO UNFOLLOW BUHARI

A Twitter user called on Nigerians to unfollow the president on the micro-blogging platform. According to him “unfollowing Buhari is also a form of protest?”

“We can help him shave off 1.5 million followers,” he added.

Do you know that unfollowing @MBuhari is also a form of protest?

Students React Angrily To The Photo Of Women Protesting Against ASUU Strike
~0.9 mins read
In line with the current protest going round the country that SARS unit in the Nigerian Police Force be dissolved, it has also raised other issues at hand in the country which many have been quiet on, and that's the ASUU strike.

Recall that the Academic Staff Union of Universities have been on Strike since March this year and despite the government asking that schools resume on 12th of October, as some state universities have also reopened too, the Federal universities in the country still can't open because of the ongoing strike.

While many Nigerians have been on protest both online and off for SARS to be dissolved, another photo was shared on one Unizik Aspirants Group on Facebook where some women were seen with placards protesting that the ASUU strike be called off so their children can go back to school, as their educational system is at stake.

Going through the reaction box, I discovered that many of the students have already given up hope of resuming school this year as they are even angry the protest went on in the first instance. Many were asking if they begged them (the women) to go for the protest as it's obvious they're already engaged in other things that are quite productive to them.
