House Of Reps. Speaker Thanks All Northerners For Not Joining In The Protests By Oppressed Youths, Suggests That We May All Have Been Killed, If They Joined

The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, has commended Nigerians from the Northern part of the country, especially the youths, for not actively supporting the EndSARS protests, and the violence and carnage that trailed the protests, stating that, if the North had taken part in the protests, “the story would have been different”,

Speaking when he paid a visit to sympathise with the Governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, on Sunday, over the vandalisation that took place in the State, the Speaker said that the destruction caused by the protests, was a very sad event that should not occur again in the history of Nigeria.

He said: “I want to also use this opportunity in a way, to be grateful, and commend our brothers and sisters from the North. I said this because, if the North had been a part of this, I do not know if we will all be standing here today. That is why I commend our brothers and sisters from the North.”

Gbajabiamila also stated that Nigerians killed before, during, and after the EndSARS protests, must get justice.

The Speaker, who sympathised with Nigerians from all parts of the country, as a result of the killings, said that the unity of the country remains non-negotiable.

He and his Delegation also paid a visit to the Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu, whose Palace was destroyed during the wave of violence that engulfed the State. The Delegation equally met with the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu.

Gbajabiamila expressed sadness over the wanton destruction of property, and the devastation, after he and members of his team watched a documentary on the incident.

“His words: I came in from Abuja today, not just to stand in solidarity with him, but by extension the people of Lagos State. These have been very difficult few days. It has even been more difficult for me in the last hour. Driving in from the airport and sitting with the Governor to watch the documentary here put together, that evidences the carnage we all witnessed. It makes us all very sad.

“This, certainly, is not the Lagos of our dream that we all talk about. And I know deep down, and I believe no matter how brave a face one puts to it, that even the protesters have their regrets that things went this far, because from my understanding and from what I’ve seen, both those who are pro-protest and those who are anti-protest, were all affected.

“There is very little I can say. But I know that standing with me is a man of courage, a man of destiny. Because it’s very unusual for you to come into office, and within a year a few months, you witnessed two calamitous events: first, you were in the epicentre of Covid-19, which you dealt with to the admiration of all.

“Whilst we were still grappling with that, you now became the epicentre of the protests. I want to encourage you to lift your head high, because you discharged your duties as a governor of a state that was troubled in the last few months, or close to one year.

“Let us shut our ears to those things. Let us focus as one people, whether you’re Igbo, whether you’re from the North, whether you’re from the South. This is the mantra that we have in the House of Representatives because if you talk about nation-building, we say it is a joint task.

“On Tuesday, we talked in the House about compensation. I want to reiterate that the House will do all it can to make sure that everybody that has suffered from police violence – whether you’re from the North, from the East, from the West, because everybody in Nigeria has suffered from police violence, not just those of us from the Southwest. That will be applicable to all, including policemen that lost their lives in these unfortunate incidents.

“So, Your Excellency, we bring you good tidings and good wishes from Abuja. We stand with you. Whatever the House can do to help in rebuilding not just Lagos State but other States that have been affected as well from whatever part in Nigeria, the House will definitely join hands. Because we’re now in the situation of reconstruction.

“I want to encourage our young men and women out there that you fought a good fight, and I’m sure deep down, you’re not happy with what you’ve seen. The government listened, the president listened, the House listened, the Senate listened, the governors listened, it is now time to take stock and make sure this never happens again.

“Your Excellency, the ground zero of what happened here is Lekki. That was what precipitated the violence and the carnage the following day. It is important to me, as I know it is important to you and to everybody, to know what exactly happened.

“A Judicial Panel has been set up, and I hope those who say this is what happened will have the courage to go before the Judicial Panel and say this is what happened and give credible evidence. And if that was indeed what happened, then the law must take its course. But if that was not what happened, the law must also take its course. Either way, the law must take its course.

“The Governor was telling me just now that it was going to cost about a trillion naira to rebuild Lagos. That makes my heart heavy. And I asked the governor what’s the budget of Lagos State? What are you planning? And he told me that they’re planning a budget of about a trillion naira.”
