"This is you justifying regardless. People have some fundamental rights and without any evidence, people can gather where they like in this country."
@JoyisBackAgain:
"Understand where he’s coming from, I was at the procession too and it was peaceful and we were all advised to finish up & go home early, people could have payed their respects & go home, we are in a country with insecurity, we should also be careful to avoid things like this."
@ReAyodeji
"Shut up Dotun. We are all complaining of Sam Larry and Naira Marley today because they deny lots of people their personal Liberty, how then in the same breadth are you guys making it seem like people have no right to assemble in Nigeria again?"
@HaadiJimoh
"What else are the waiting for after the program had ended?
"How did muri Okunola park turned to lekki tollgate?"
@Endbadpolitics
"This take is so senseless to the point am speechless. You open tear-gass in a busy road like lekki tollgate what will happen to people that closed from work after a long day and are driving home? They should fly. Nothing can justify the shooting at citizens"
@ibddon92:
"In a sane society, you need approval before you can protest."
@Gkingmusik2:
"Well spoken. Go home is very simple"
@LVHDLVTF:
"The job of the police is to provide adequate security to prevent situations where people with nefarious intents can hijack a peaceful protest! "Its just commonsense".
Do2dtun calls out brother-in-law, Dbanj
Legit.ng had earlier reported how Do2dtun publicly dragged his brother-in-law, Dbanj over a court case involving him and his wife, who is the singer's sister.
Do2dtun called the singer a wicked and deceitful person. He also called Dbanj's extended family an ignorant set of people.
He accused the artist of fabricating lies to the press to gain their support. The OAP warned Dbanj to expect more revelation about their lies from him.
