The president made this known at the 52nd Independence anniversary lecture on Tuesday. Jonathan said that there was a  sinister motive behind the protests in January.

Look at the demonstrations back home, look at the areas these demonstrations are coming from, you begin to ask, are these the ordinary citizens that are demonstrating? Or are people pushing them to demonstrate? The demonstration in Lagos, people were given bottled water that people in my village don’t have access to. People were given expensive food that the ordinary people in Lagos cannot eat. So even going to eat free alone attracts people.They go and hire the best musicians to come and play and the best comedian to come and entertain. Is that demonstration? Are you telling me that that is a demonstration from ordinary masses in Nigeria who want to communicate something to government?” he said.

“I believe that that protest in Lagos was manipulated by a class in Lagos and was not from the ordinary people.” He added.


Oga Jona dey always funny me, fake rally bah, you never see anything, we go Occupy well well with our resources if Government continue to do anyhow. Because all man dey siddon for house before bah, ...the guy see people for Occupy he fear  (lolz)
