She spoke in her native language. Twitter user, @__gershom, who shared the video, translated what she said as
“I know we have wronged you. The generation of today has suffered. The big people have wronged you. Nigerian politics has failed you. But please forgive us. Forgive the big people. Forgive the politicians”

Forgiveness is a gift you give to someone else; it’s an act of your own will
Forgiveness is not just for other people, it’s for you too. Forgive yourself, move on, and try to do better next time
Forgiveness is the economy of the heart, it saves the expense of anger, the cost of hatred, the waste of spirits
Forgiveness is nothing but recognizing the reality that what has happened has already happened, and that there’s no point in allowing it to dominate the rest of your life
Forgiveness is a given but to commit the same wrong is bad thing which need to be corrected with immediate effect……
To err is human and forgive is divine. Once you know your wrong doing and apologize nothing else than to move on.
Since when we have been agitating for good governance, you turn a deaf hear but when things turn against you people, you are just realizing that you have offended us. It’s already late.
Hope you are not pretending because of what’s going on now? You have failed woefully before now but we are watching wether their would be remedied but to no avail.
The only politicians with conscience,we need not to forgive,we need just for you to do the rightfull thing
Your apologies and knee did not useful in anyway, do you remember we’re they neel Dawn during general election in kogi state? We’re they said 👉we know we have offended you in every way but please people of kogi state forgive us. Did you see any changes in them? So madam stand up you are not welcome.
I wish many of you will realize how you have failed us as elected leaders
How i wish others would apologise like this sincerely.
You should be ashamed of yourself, your statement shows how much your stupidity. If you like lie down for Nigeria is not the first time it has been happening in many years. My sister….#sorosoke
Medicine after death
You just realized now because of the protests n wanton destruction of properties, all of you are going to answer for the blood of all that died, you all contributed to their death, wickedness at the highest level, very few distributing n eating what belongs to all of us, while the multitude are dying, God will judge you all.
Hypocrite, if u are serious, resign ur senatorship. Gone at d time we listened to ur sweet lies, we want to see u act it. Ur resignation will win our trust. Monsters in human form
You have not started crying yet, this one your doing is just crying rehearsal.
When the youths were crying did you and your fellow Senators hear their own cry?
Cry cry baby
This is what all of the leaders are supposed to do not to come and still be talking thrash
In fact this is what we should be hearing from them not the other way round.
How can u turn back the hands of time.
Don’t apologies go back and tell your people that season two will be something else.
Now that the boys are calm heyy……check ooo
