“He is an opportunist and must enjoy this APC government that he supports since he is against a new Nigeria Peter Obi is fighting for”.


@Its JayMilli. 

“And no drug test was run on every police officer that violated the Nigerian police code of conduct. Shame on y'all”.


@ebenezerlu • 

“When I told people that police go use seun shine.

dem dey laughs, person wey dem wan set ablaze

wey com Dey use petrol baff. But honestly let the

charge again him be limited to the incident he was

arrested for”.


@pecheli09. 

“The oppressive nature of the Nigerian government is reaching everybody. This is what we have been fighting to change, but some people prefer tribalism instead freedom. Let's continue to enjoy the oppression and

impunity”.


@OyinAtiBode

“And since when is weed smoking or even drug

addiction or use a crime? Of course, Seun smokes

weed like his father and everybody knows that. Why

do you need to test him? Even if you do and he tests

positive, how is it a crime? They were taking weed

from his house and marking them as evidence….to

what exactly? Every sane country goes after the

seller, not the user”.
