Buhari: After buses were burnt during #EndSARS, I told Sanwo-Olu to tell Lagosians to walk

President Muhammadu Buhari says he told Babajide Sanwo-Olu, governor of Lagos, to tell residents of the state to “walk” after buses were burnt during the #EndSARS protest.

In October 2020, demonstrations against police brutality were hijacked, leading to razing of vehicles and buildings across the country. Several vehicles under the Bus Rapid Transport (BRT) scheme in Lagos were also burnt.

Following the incident, Sanwo-Olu had paid a visit to Buhari with a photo album of the destruction recorded in the state during the protests.

Speaking in an interview with the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) on Friday, Buhari said he told the Lagos governor that the federal government didn’t have the funds to replace the burnt buses.

“Look at the #EndSARS incident in Lagos. The previous governor of Lagos state bought 200 buses to complement the transportation in Lagos. And he built a complex. But they went and burnt them,” Buhari said.

“The present governor made an album and came to see me. I said ‘Thank you very much’. I took the album, put it in my archives and I told him to tell the Lagosians to walk, because we don’t have the money.

“After an istration bought over 200 buses, for some people to come and burn it? So, let them walk.”

Good mr president.some lagosians ed hands with some bad bele people to destroy lagos during ENDSARS.Everybody should be treated in the language he or she will understand better.

Once most politicians get into power, they change and begin to speak languages that the people do not understand.

Government should learn how to carry the people along, to avoid protests.

We do not the destruction of government properties.
Na all of us get dem.

Some people killed 11 corpers but didn't read on their own afterwards. Hypocrisy.

Some are burning schools and kidnapping students but aren't being asked to learn under the sun. In fact they are about to get a regional development commission for it.

okay

Buhari simply doesn't care about anyone...
That's the more reason people must be careful in what they do and say, because if trouble comes Bubu will just stay aloof. For about 2 to 3 days after the Lekki incident, there was anarchy every where, I was expecting a state of emergency in Lagos and some selected states, but it was obvious the FG intentionally stayed aloof so that states that were initially sympathetic to the protesters may reap the rewards of their perceived folly. Governor's where helpless, the soldiers were just in their barracks while the police were no where to be found, Mushin was on fire while major army Barracks just a stone throw in Oshodi and Yaba were watching the state burn.

If you like come up with another violent protest...you're just doing yourself, E no move Buhari one bit. Burn all the infrastructures and kill all your people, Buhari won't blink. Trend #Buharimustgo globally OYO is your case.

You lot are hypocrites.

Address people so they can as always twist it out of context and use it as the pretext for anarchy.

Try again.

The whole endsars saga proved that despite states having the legal capacity to address issues they will always act powerless and be looking.

All the of justice were set up by states they did not need PMB they could have easily solved the problem each time SARS exceeded their limits but no they acted like there was nothing they could do.

PMB followed their lead and let them while they hung themselves till their senses returned. We cannot continue to pretend Govs have no role to play in maintaining law and order.

Doesn't this sound wicked?

Burning of those beautiful Valletta busses is one of most meaningless things ever..I stand with the dullard on this
