Sowore vows to organise #EndSARS protests in defiance of police orders

The human rights activist and publisher of SaharaReporters, Omoyele Sowore on Monday, October 11, vowed to organise #EndSARS memorial protests on October 20, despite warnings by the Nigerian Police Force.

The #EndSARS protests which were held in October 2020 were against the activities of the now-disbanded Special Anti-Robbery Squad, a unit of the Nigeria Police Force which was accused of police brutality.

The epicentre of the protests was the Lekki tollgate in Lagos where many youths gathered day and night to air their grievances against police brutality and bad governance.

In a Twitter post, Sowore disregarded the warning by the Police saying, “@PoliceNG in Lagos & across Nigeria, there will be #EndSARS memorial protests and direct actions on October 20, 2021.

“Nobody can suppress the will of Nigerians to repudiate the mass atrocities of the @mbuhari regime on that day and beyond.”

However, the Lagos Police Command slammed Sowore over his assertion.

A statement issued by the Command’s Spokesperson, Adekunle Ajisebutu, vowed to use all legitimate means within their constitutional powers against such.

It reads: “Credible intelligence at the disposal of the command has revealed clandestine plans by some youths, individuals, or groups to embark on a protest today in commemoration of the first anniversary of #EndSARS.

“Lagosians and indeed Nigerians cannot afford to relive the distasteful experience of last year’s protest which caused pain, anguish, needless loss of lives, and wanton destruction of public and private property.

“Given the volatility of the present situations in the country and the breakdown of law and order which the planned protest might cause, the Lagos State Police Command sternly warns against any form of protest today.

“The command wishes to use this medium to warn the youths, groups, or associations planning such protest to jettison the idea forthwith.

“The police in the state will not fold their arms and allow some misguided elements disrupt the peace and serenity currently being enjoyed in the state.”

Similarly, the Osun Police Command, in a statement by its spokesperson, Yemisi Opalola, said the force will stop at nothing to ensure it averts the planned protest.

The statement reads: “The intelligence that availed the police command revealed underground/nocturnal plans by some youths/group of people to embark on protest in commemoration of the first anniversary of the END SARS saga.

“Given this, the Commissioner of Police, CP Olawale Olokode, warned individuals or group of individuals that are planning such in the state and their sponsor(s) to stop the plan or any of such action(s) forthwith as the command will not allow a repeat of last year’s END SARS saga and it is fully prepared to use all legitimate means to avert such intending protest.

“Consequently, the State Police Command will not tolerate any unlawful protest/gathering or assembly that will jeopardize the peace of the state.”

PLATEAU LG POLLS: “The worst Local Government Election in the History of Nigeria” – PDP

The Peoples Democratic Party in Plateau state has responded to the recently concluded Local Government elections that were conducted in Plateau state which also excluded the participation of the party after the Appeal Court sitting in Jos gave the go-ahead for the said elections.

The party through its State Publicity Secretary, John T Akans, described the Local Government Elections in Plateau State as “the worst local government election in the history of Nigeria” and “the most unfortunate and disgraceful conduct” and “the most horrible act of fascism”.

Akans went on to describe the announcement of winners by PLASIEC yesterday and the action of governor Lalong as executive rascality.

He said “As a party, we are mindful of the fact that the people of Plateau are looking up to the PDP to salvage them from this political despotic and oppressive leadership. It is, therefore, our duty to ensure that the local government election was conducted fairly in the interest of the people who deserve a voice in governance without exclusion” It was on the basis of this that the party went to court to seek justice when Plateau State Independent Electoral Commission unlawfully excluded the party from participating in the election” He said

PEOPLES DEMOCRATIC PARTY,(PDP) PLATEAU STATE CHAPTER, 20/22 YAKUBU GOWON WAY OPP NTA

TEXT OF PRESS BRIEFING BY THE STATE CHAPTER OF THE PEOPLES DEMOCRATIC PARTY(PDP) AT THE STATE SECRETARIAT ON MONDAY 11TH DAY OF OCTOBER 2021

Gentlemen of the press, our stakeholders, ladies and gentlemen.
I bring you warm greetings from the rank and file of our great party, the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP), Under the leadership of Hon Christopher Adukuchili Hassan.

Today I am addressing you on the most unfortunate and disgraceful conduct of the 9th October 2021 polls, in the name of an election This indeed is the most horrible act of fascism.

As a party we are mindful of the fact that the people of Plateau are looking up to the PDP to salvage them from this political despotic and oppressive leadership. It is therefore our duty to ensure that the local government election was conducted fairly in the interest of the people who deserve a voice in governance without exclusion.

It was on the basis of this that the party went to court to seek justice when Plateau State Independent Electoral Commission unlawfully excluded the party from participating in the election.

Gentlemen of the Press, In the face of this authoritarianism, the party stood firmly against this cruelty, compromise and electoral malpractices which we know was going to be the order of the day across the state as APC and the government have lost their legitimacy baesd on their failure.

It may interest you all to know that it was the resolute stance of the Peoples Democratic Party not to compromise the interest of our people and the integrity of our democratic values by allowing Governor Lalong through his self appointed cronies at PLASIEC to play over the peoples intelligence, that has led to this imperious, and disgraceful show of shame, of the socalled elections of saturday 9th of October 2021, which was massively rejected by the people of the state.

Indeed the people have spoken and have demonstrated that APC is not a political party, but an association of family and friends. The power of the people was clearly displayed in action across the 325 electoral wards of Plateau where majority of the electorates boycotted the exercise over the unlawful exclusion of the PDP from participating in the election by PLASIEC.

We therefore appreciate the people of the state for their protest of the unlawful exclusion of the PDP.
We assure Plateau people that this antics of desperate politicians who are already intimidated and threatened by the rising popularity of the PDP would be vehemently resisted.

To you all our teaming supporters and members of our great party, we urge you all to remain steadfast and committed in the face of this puerilsm.

The announcement of winners by PLASIEC yesterday and the action of governor Lalong can only be described as executive rascality. This is the worst local government election in the history of Nigeria.

In warfare a battle is either won or lost. As a party that respects the rule of law, we are pursuing our course to participate in the local govt elections at the court of appeal. We expect that PLASIEC would have waited for the decision of the court of appeal on this matter. Its surprising to see that PLASIEC that is a party to this suit and was well represented in court, announced its shameful appointees as winners when the matter was adjourned for 22nd of November 2021.

The question that comes to mind is, with this kind of attitude by these people is that, which kind of vacuous, wasteful minds with total disregard for decency and rule of law are presiding over the affairs of our dear state? This desperate act will not salvage the already sinking APC in Plateau State as it has been rejected by all and waiting to be buried in 2023.

Gentlemen, the above scenario paints the picture of lawless mindset of political gangsters who have no respect for democracy, democratic ethics and peaceful process, but only addicted to power without conscience and responsibility.

Governor Lalong and his election merchant team may just be grandstanding in a wild flight of fantasy just for psychological relief in order to give a false hope of judicial victory instead of uncertainty of where the pendulum of justice swings.

So we advice those declared by PLASIEC as winners not to celebrate because they were not elected by the people but rather appointed by despotic leadership and this scam will lead to no where, as plateau people can not be scammed again.
We call on the Independent National Electoral commission, INEC to, inline with the provision of the constitution and electoral act fix a date for the by-election of Jos north / Bassa federal constituency. INEC should come out and tell Plateau why its yet to fix a date for the conduct of this election having lost the member representing that constituency over six months ago.

The Peoples Democratic Party will not hesitate to take legal action against INEC if it fails to fix a date for the election because Jos north/Bassa people are left without a representative for the past six months. INEC has gone beyond the required time to conduct the election as done in other federal constituencies.

In conclusion we wish to assure and encouraged our teaming supporters and the entire people of plateau state that PDP is doing everything possible within the ambits of the law and its competent best to salvage democracy and Plateau from the hands and shackles of political marauders.

PDP is the only party that protect, defend and portrays the values of our founding fathers, we enjoin our people to collectively come and battle along with the PDP and throw out the lalong and the APC government come 2023.

The purported swearing in ceremony is temporal and will be short lived, this is laughable and only a child’s play.

Thank you and God bless you all.

Signed…

John T Akans ksm,FICA JP.
State Publicity Secretary, PDP,
Plateau State.

Anambra Election: INEC cautions political parties against violent campaigns

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), on Friday, October 8, warned political parties participating in the November 6 Anambra State governorship election against violent campaigns that could affect the peaceful conduct of the election.

This was contained in a media address by the INEC Chairman, Mahmood Yakubu, during a meeting held at the INEC headquarters in Abuja.

He also announced 2,525,471 as eligible voters for the Anambra governorship polls.

He said: “I wish to appeal to all political parties and candidates not to exacerbate the feeling of insecurity in Anambra State through unguarded utterances and actions. This could compound the security situation and also make the work of the commission; political parties, as well as security agencies even more difficult.”

The INEC chairman said that such violent campaigns and unguarded utterances may also lead to voter apathy, explaining that “This moment calls for statesmanship and maturity hence the decision to convene this emergency meeting.

“We are confident that the outcome of this engagement will be productive; and helpful to the Commission and political parties; as we continue to prepare for the Anambra Governorship holding on Saturday 6th November 2021,” the INEC chairman stated.

He reminded the political parties that in May this year; the INEC state office in Awka was attacked which he said affected the main building; collation centre, as well as store which were completely or partially damaged.

“I am glad to report that we have fully recovered from that attack. The buildings have been completely reconstructed; and renovated in readiness for the election.

“All the non-sensitive materials have either been procured afresh or sourced from neighbouring states; and our zonal stores. We are working assiduously with security agencies; to ensure that such an attack does not happen again.”

However, he said, “security remains a major challenge to our preparations. For the political parties; these heinous attacks have truncated campaigns; making voter mobilisation and sensitisation impossible.”

Twitter working on new prompt to warn users of ‘heated’ conversations

Twitter has announced a new feature that the company has been working on; to inform people in advance that a conversation could be ‘intense’.

The company is currently testing prompts for its apps on Android and iOS, that would inform users about a conversation that could get heated.

The company says it is working on the feature as part of its efforts to “better support healthy conversation” on the platform.

These new prompts from Twitter sound like a long-overdue feature, and could prove very useful on the microblogging platform that (like every other open platform) is affected by harassment and abuse. “Ever want to know the vibe of a conversation before you join in?” the company’s support account tweeted on Wednesday.

The company says that the criteria for checking which tweets the prompts appear on could change as the company works on the feature.

The company shared an image of the feature in action, showing a tweet with multiple quote tweets and a reply under it, as an example of a tweet that might have received contentious replies.

Under the regular tweet action bar with the reply, retweet, like and share buttons, Twitter showed off the new prompt which says “Heads up” followed by “Conversations like this can be intense”.

According to the company, the service might consider the topic of the tweet and the relationship between the tweet author and the person replying to display the prompt.

Twitter also shared another view of a pop-up card that shows up on the same sample tweet, that tells users to “remember the human”; that “facts matter” and that “diverse perspectives have value”. It also contains a link to the Twitter Rules and has a button titled “Count me in”.

At the moment, it is hard to tell whether this prompt shows up when users tap the reply button or when they tap the previous blue prompt, and users will likely see this arrive in a future update.

It is important to note that while Twitter is currently working on this feature to improve conversations on the platform; it isn’t the first attempt by the company to add prompts to the service.

One such feature is already available to users – the prompt that shows up asking you if you want to read an article before retweeting.

Similarly, it has also been working on a feature that could ask users to stop and think before they tweet something offensive.

It remains to be seen whether this prompt is added in its current state; or whether the company refines the design or the criteria that will decide when it is displayed, before it is finally released to the public.

PRESS RELEASE

PLATEAU STATE YOUTH COUNCIL

8TH OCTOBER, 2021

Fellow compatriots!

Once again, democracy has brought itself forth upon which we are to all give our voices to it, in whatever directions we (as individuals and as a people) wish it to head. Hence, in view of the scheduled local government elections for Saturday, 9th October, 2021, it has become very sacrosanct and imperative for council to make this press release in the overall good and interest of the Youths, and the good and peace loving people of Plateau state.

With true efforts to sustain the state of peace on the Plateau especially after series of engagements with prominent Youth groups and individuals, particularly as it relates to the forthcoming local government elections in the seventeen local government areas of Plateau state, council wishes to state affirmatively that, elections have been confirmed by the electoral umpire (PLASIEC) to hold on Saturday, 9th October, 2021, in the seventeen local government Areas of Plateau State.

While council shares in the concerns raised by various Youth groups in the state particularly as it relates to security issues in some parts of the state, It is however relieved of those concerns as security agents have given every assurance of tight security as further confirmed by the Executive Governor in his broadcast. Council therefore, in concord with the assurances of tight security by security agents and the government appeal to all Youths to conduct themselves peacefully as they go out to exercise their fundamental rights of voting the candidates of their choices.

While Council is aware of worrying concerns by political parties and individuals who feel certain issues be considered with regards the elections, Council equally applauds the actions of parties and individuals who saw the need to approach the best channels with their grievances and dissatisfactions with the true patriotism of holding to mind, the fragile peace that the state needs to make better by not taking the law into their hands. It is true that the people of Plateau are in the most patriotic efforts in contributing their paths in promoting peace and giving rooms for developments.

Council therefore, calls on the entire Youths on the Plateau to come out with energy and the hope for the state that democracy must remain alive as they conduct themselves and peacefully partake in the elections by voting for the candidates of their choices and being good ambassadors of democratic norms before, during and after the elections, as well, ensure that anything and everything capable of disrupting the electoral process is tamed in the overall interest of the State and its citizens.

Council feels duty bound to equally call on the appropriate quotas who received the grievances of individuals and parties to ensure that, justice is served with every sense of responsibility to give everyone a level playing ground, going forward.

Conclusively, council wishes to call on the electoral umpire and the security personnel as well, stakeholders with a very strong and resounding voice to ensure that the elections are conducted free, fair, credible and peaceful without fear or favor to/of any individual/Party. While a successful exercise is prayed for, council hopes on the assurances of the Youths to conduct themselves in the best manner, peaceful and law abiding, now and in the future.

Kindly accept the assurances of our best wishes, please!

God bless Plateau!

Comr. Lot, Sunday Adas.

Executive Chairman, Plateau state Youth Council (PYC).

~~~Kumwen, Walshak Musa.

Public Relations Officer, Plateau State Youth Council.
