”Government Sent Soldiers To Kill Innocent Civilians For Their Economic Gain” – Chioma

The CEO of Brass and Copper restaurant, and Good Hair Ltd is of the opinion that the Government of Nigeria, and that of Lagos state deployed military men to kill Nigerian youth protesting for the end of the Special Anti Robbery Squad. She opined that the reason behind this is “the pocket of the Government has been crippled due to the closure of the Lekki Toll gate”.

In her words, ”We have barely finished saying the names and mourning the death of our beloved fallen innocent citizens by SARS and you do this????? You send the military to kill us innocent protesters ???? I am so angry I am so so angry the words fail me.

How many more names are we going to add to the list ??? How many ???? Oh God why ? Why have you allowed these monsters fail us like this !?!?!
Lekki has been one of the most peaceful protest ground- no thugs, no bad eggs- pure unity. So why would you ever send soldiers to kill innocent civilians if not for the economic gain?

You remove the cameras, turn off all the lights and unleash uniformed armed killers on women and children? The AUDACITY!!! And then you’ll wake up tomorow and start giving speeches and audio promises!!
Nah this is demonic!

It’s simple- because their pockets have been crippled they have decided to kill because of a week’s loss of earnings on the routes of the protest?!?!
Thank you for letting us know where it hits you the most because you didn’t send soldiers to Alausa or Orile where police stations were being burnt (by your own thugs anyway) you sent them to Lekki toll????

“No no no no these INNOCENT PROTESTERS cannot die in vain! Something must give!
My people let’s now get serious! It’s time to STRATEGIZE!”

Emphasizing on how peaceful the protest has been, the Nigerian lawyer, entrepreneur and executive coach, took to her instagram to rant about the unrest across the country on Tuesday.

”Na who chop belle full go protest”… funny enough at the Lekki Protest we’ve actually managed to keep a lot of potential ”hoodlums” engaged by feeding them because they spend majority of their time eating or queuing for food as opposed to causin trouble.
But in other areas, since we crippled your police you decided to set the unemployed youth (still caused by you) on us.”

Boldly delivering them in police vans, BRT buses and range rovers to cause total chaos.
Update: And now you send soldiers to shoot at innocent civilians at the Lekki Toll gate after turning off all the lights and screens and strategically removing all the cameras earlier today???? SMDH!!!!
This has been the most peaceful protest location so far, so what is it that pains you people so so much about us being there? what exactly????

Nigeria you have failed us! Lagos state you have failed us!!!
I’m happy the world can see! Everyone please stay safe but trust me this is far from over- in fact we’re just getting started”
