“The protesters didn’t ask for war, just for a better Nigeria” – Chelsea star, Antonio Rüdiger reacts to Lekki attack
Chelsea defender, Antonio Rüdiger has reacted to the Lekki tollgate gun attack after peaceful #EndSARS protesters were allegedly killed on Tuesday night, October 20.
In his tweets, the German International said he’s shocked how the situation got out of control after putting out a statement last week condemning police brutality in Nigeria.
The center-back also stated that the situation in Nigeria has nothing to do with democracy as he noted that it’s more like a military rule which he says is a violation of human rights at the highest order.
The defender wrote:
After my short statement about Nigeria already last week I’m now even more shocked about how the situation there has got more and more out of control. This saddens me so much. This has absolutely nothing to do with democracy.
It is more like a military rule and it’s a violation of human rights at the highest order. President@mbuhari and the Nigerian Army, stop killing peaceful young protesters. Stop killing the people you are supposed to protect.
The protesters didn’t ask for war, just for a better Nigeria. #EndPoliceBrutalityinNigeria #EndSARS
@rudiger thanks. That’s what we see in the hands of those people that we were voted for to protect the lives and properties of their but the reverse is the case. Help us to beg them.
We speak to them they ignore us before leading to this protest, our leaders are always turn deaf ear to whatever we say and if international community can come to our rescue we will be happy.
Our leaders are always selfish and they don’t ready to listen to us. Once they know that they won’t get money they won’t do anything about it. Rudiger thanks for speaking up.
Waoo Antonio ruduger, thank you, I don’t know you have sympathy for my country like this, I gave started loving you more and more
Be yourself, don’t change being you for anyone, if they don’t like you for who you are then they don’t deserve to be in your life. You are you and you can’t be anyone different.
Don’t be afraid of change. You may end up losing something good, but you’ll probably end up gaining something so much better.
Don’t be afraid of change. You may lose something good, but you’ll gain something even better.
Don t worry, If nothing happens it could be because of things will get better or it s better that it really should not happen.
That is very bad… But hope all this effort yield good results…
That is bad but those useless people will not know peace for the rest of their lives
