Every day on the Nigerian Internet, there are people who keep our eyes glued to our phone screens as we read their rants, opinions, perspectives on political and social issues, etc. Sometimes, they are just downright ridiculous. We make it our job to take down the names of these noisemakers.
Here are the ones we saw today:
Discrimination is discrimination. First it was the homosexuals. Today it’s women. Who will it be tomorrow?
Treating people differently because they’re different not because they’ve harmed anyone is the definition of discrimination.
History has shown us the dangers of that.

Nigeria is only concerned about “morality” where women are involved.

Do you now see how this whole issue is gendered? Gendered disparities in the enforcement of laws is a serious issue and you can’t call for #EndSARS without calling for #AbujaPoliceRaidonWomen

This is exactly the problem with demonizing sex work. They use it to harm ALL women. Especially in a country where “ashewo” is the go to “insult” for a woman. In a minute your reality can change bc of a demonized tag.
We are not safe until we’re ALL safe.#AbujaPoliceRaidonWomen

Senators @bukolasaraki @ShehuSani @benmurraybruce while you guys are still members of the National Assembly, the Senate needs to look into this. This state-sanctioned harassment of women cannot be allowed to continue.#AbujaPoliceRaidonWomen
