A country that has consistently failed over the years to make living conditions better for its citizens should not at the same time condone the principalities of the country to intimidate, oppress, and maim the same citizens it had failed to provide for. #endsarsnow #endpolicebrutality #endsars

Police Violently Disperse #EndSARS Protesters At Force Headquarters In Abuja

Policemen have fired teargas canisters to disperse hundreds of Nigerians calling for an end to the Special Anti-Robbery Squad in the country.

SARS is notorious for brutality, extortion, harassment and extrajudicial killing of innocent citizens.

The protesters had earlier requested to see the Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu.

They vowed not leave the premises of building until the IGP addressed them.

But armed policemen stationed within the building fired teargas at them around 6:20pm and violently disrupted the peaceful protest.

Some of the demonstrators were beaten and dragged on the floor by policemen.

As at the time of this report, the protesters vowed to stay put until their demands were met.

“I remembered last year I came back and was stopped by Sars and they told me I was a suspect asking me to call my coach, captain and president of my team. They even asked me which police station I reported to when I came into the country, Even after seeing all evidence of me and my job on youtube and google, they still took me to a police station and ask me to come behind the station while smoking all sorts of stuffs weeds and the rest asking me to pay 1000$. It’s pathetic and annoying seeing the harassment extortions and killings. We nor do again oga president. #Endsarsnow

[b]Take EndSARS Protest To Church: Sowore, Small Doctor, Reno Omokri
[/b]

I Appeal To Endsars Protesters Not To Drag Pastors Or Take Protest To Churches

I will like to use this medium to appeal to Christians and churchgoers to keep the House of God away from the EndSARS campaign. I strongly sympathize with those who have suffered or lost their life to police brutality. However, dragging a sacred place called the House of God into protests and social media campaigns is strongly frowned at.

I've seen some tweets from some celebrity social media influencers begging for the EndSARS protests to move to churches. They are worried about the silence of pastors. First and foremost, pastors are entitled to maintain silence. They have the right to speak and not to speak. Trying to force out a statement from them concerning SARS is tantamount to bullying as seen in cancel culture which is now in Nigeria.

Here is a tweet from singer Small Doctor calling for EndSARS placards inside churches.

He said,

Tomorrow Is SundayThinking faceThere Will Be Church Services, Remember To Hold Atleast One Of The #Endpolicebrutality #Endsars Banner Or Placard.

RAISE IT UP During Sermon, Our Pastors/Priests Must Talk About It. This Is A Fight For All Raised fist#Endpolicebrutality #EndsarsNow #EndSars

https://mobile.twitter.com/iam_smalldoctor/status/1314912108413358080

This is a singer that was caught with an illegal gun, who has no morality, now having the effrontery to tell pastors ordained by God what to preach in Church. Simply because he successfully led a protest to the government house in Lagos, he's now calling for EndSARS protests in church and the disruption of sermons delivered by the Holy Spirit. Where is the fear of God?

Sahara Reporters publisher, Omoyele Sowore also shared the same ideology.

He said,

#EndSARS to our Christian brothers and sisters, if your pastor is not preaching liberation tomorrow (Sunday), leave the church in protest, don’t pay no damn tithes and /or offerings! And don’t forget to join an #EndSarsNow protest, it is a Godly thing to do #RevolutionNow

https://mobile.twitter.com/YeleSowore/status/1315039632422297601

Let me ask some questions. Was it God that created SARS? If no, why is Sowore telling people not to pay tithe which is God's belonging? This is a call to disobey God, not to end police brutality. Anyone who follows his advice will blame himself sooner or later because...

Hebrews 10:13 KJV
It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God

Former presidential aide, Reno Omokri is also part of the plot to disrupt the House of God. On his own part, he tweeted that if pastors don't talk about EndSARS in church this Sunday, people should desecrate the offering meant for God. While Christians will be placing their money into the offering box, Reno Omokri is saying that EndSARS protesters should write EndSARS on a piece of paper and place it inside the box as their offering instead of money.

He tweeted,

Dear Nigerians,

If your pastor talks about MONEY in church tomorrow, but does NOT talk about EndSARS, simply get a piece of paper, write #EndSARS on it, wait for offering time, and put that piece of paper in the offering basket. Christianity must be about people, not about money

https://mobile.twitter.com/renoomokri/status/1314993056991588359

I ask, where is the fear of God? Is it not enough that you are allowed to protest in the streets that you have to take it to God's sacred place and desecrate it?

Must a pastor speak or preach what you want to hear? What happened to him preaching the message God gave him? No, you want him to say what you want which means he should abandon what God wants him to preach. That's why I like the Bible, it is ever ready for every situation and has spoken of this generation which won't want the truth but will want the preachers who will tell them what they want to hear.

2 Timothy 3:4 KJV
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables

If people had been listening to the sound doctrine being preached in the Churches of God, there won't be any need for SARS nor protests. Churches have been preaching against fraud, laziness, idleness, rascality, prostitution, indecent dressing etc, but no one cared to listen. Those sermons are for their own good but they failed to listen.

Now, they are crying that they are being brutalized by police. If you had listened and obey God, you won't be looking like the profile of a criminal fit enough to be extorted by the bad eggs in SARS. But you want to live anyhow without any repercaution. Now that SARS is brutalizing you, you want to hear pastors speak. Sadly, it is what you put in their mouth you want them to say, not the truth they have been saying for years which you have been rejecting

You want to take to Church your protest which has never been against Yahoo boys but against the system that curtails them. Do you actually know what the House of God is? You don't, that's why you want to turn it into a den of thieves and Yahoo boys. Before you start sweet-talking about how Jesus would be kind to such protests, see what he said below after flogging those who made nonsense of the House of God..

Matthew 21:13
And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.

If you take the EndSARS protests to church, just count it that you have drawn battle against God. You have gone in total rebellion against him and have desecrated his sacred place.

This thread is to appeal with those who might be misled into protesting in God's house. Please have a change of heart. The national assembly is there. We have state house of assembly and other government agencies. God's House is not the one hiring and firing security operatives. Please have a change of heart because...

Hebrews 10:13 KJV
It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God
