Watch The Occupy Nigeria Protests Live On Battabox.com by shakomende: 10:12pm On Jan 12, 2012
Former CNN West Africa Correspondent, Christian Purefoy recently founded Battabox.com, the only channel live streaming the ongoing protests in Nigeria. Nigerians can tune in tomorrow to watch the live protests in Ojota. The site has been streaming the live protests since its official launch earlier this week.

According to Battabox.com:
As the international media continues to ignore the growing #OccupyNigeria protests – Nigerians are taking matters into their own hands with on-ground live video, interviews, chanting, prayers and placards with the protesters go to BattaBox.com for rolling coverage of #OccupyNigeria. Also, Nigerians are uploading their videos, photos and protests to air on www.battabox.com/upload.html. This is a Nigerian conversation – BattaBox.com.

"sw" please stop being tribalistic!. I guess you are a "malo" guy. I found out that on your list, you excluded the hausa folks holding the reins of State Affairs in this country. What about Lamido Sanusi?. What about your northern governors?. Why is Lamido and the Northern State Governors not part of your list?. So it means to us the objective Nairalanders that these people you excluded are saint.
Please "sw" stop playing on our intelligence!.
It amazes me why some guys on NL just get to be tribalistic.

You must be a bid fool,didn't your fashola,ajimobi amosun and the gov of ekiti state support the subsidy removal(all the governors did anyway as a result of their need to pay the minimum wage), i wonder when people will pluck the tribal fur from their eyes and begin to think reasonably,

'Temmydude', I guess you are a "PIG" (i.e. ibo) guy. I found out that on sw list, he included Labaran Maku and also proposed the inclusion of ALL members federal executive, which include the VP and all serving Hausa ministers.  

But even though his moniker clearly suggests he is from SW, and he did not also includes governors from SW and the MB, you dirty pig, because of your incurable hatred for the Muslim Hausa-Fulani, all you could see in him was a disguised Hausa-Fulani guy!

If you are not such a lazy bigoted Iyamiri a@shole, you should have dug into his previous posts where you could find more clear clues that the guy is Yoruba from the SW as his moniker suggests, not your easy target of unbridled hatred - the Hausa-Fulani Muslims.

Nyamirin banza, dan iska!

Don't mean to defame anybody as you're insinuating, but if you did any research yourself, you should at the least provide us with the name of the real person in question.

"NorthSharp ", you are such a slowpoke!!!. Hahahahaha. So you feel like crying because of the truth that you just read. Well i ought not to give attention to a riffraff like you, but i just need to make it known to you that need to learn how to talk to your elders.

Dan Iska yaro!!!
Re: Watch The Occupy Nigeria Protests Live On Battabox.com by Akiika: 4:31pm On Jan 13, 2012
Guys, must you import tribal sentment into everything? Is it a curse? are people good or bad based on where they come from?
We've had Northerners, Southerner, Westerner, Easterrn and presently Niger-Deltan lead us, they have all plundered our resources, so why are you fighting to defend these polilooters just because they are your kinsmen? it beats my imagination! Use your brain to talk to your brain, think before you type. This is the leverage these plunderers have over us, they capitalize on our divisiveness to rob us openly. They know we can never be united to challenge them, schmew!
Re: Watch The Occupy Nigeria Protests Live On Battabox.com by temmydude: 11:06pm On Jan 13, 2012
"Akiika", thanks for those matured words. It is this "NorthSharp@ boy that is just trying to blow things out of proportion.
