    the problem is the presidency and not ourselves...fighting on the streets wont do us any good...peaceful protest is what we need till otherwise stated. lets act wisely and not be the very tools of our own misfortunes...condolences to those killed as a result of the peaceful protest but we must forge ahead till our voices are heard by our government and this insanity is taken away by them...lets utilize the internet, the media-houses, social networks, mobile devices, and various forums to express ourselves...because we are learned people and we know better...if the government is failing its still our duty to ensure Nigeria remains the pride and giant of Africa...lets shun violence and rather let our voices speak
