RE: Hive-Naija Weekend Engagement:"Riot in Abuja Stadium"

It's funny how people who are considered adults don't understand the consequences of their actions. Getting worked up over a lost match is the least of our problems, why didn't they storm aso rock and demand an answer from the president regarding the state of the country ATM. It's just stupid behaviour.
Q1. If the rest of the world sees this news, what would they think of us?
The rest of the world already sees Nigeria as a country full of fraudsters, I'm sure this would help them to add violent and insensible to the list of things they don't like about Nigerian
Q2. What they did, is it proper for them to have done this?
It's the most improper childish behaviour I've seen in a while. How do you justify attacking visitors who came to play in your country because they won the match?
Q3. would you be surprised to see a news update of over 1Billionaire spent on repairs in the stadium?
Nothing is surprising when it comes to funds in this country, if they even say it's 60billion I still won't be surprised.
Q4. Who should we blame for this act, the fans who attacked or the government and why?
The government can't be held responsible for everything, we as individuals should be able to use our common sense. The fans are to blame, they made that decision without any influence from the government.
Q5. Do you think Nigeria would ever be removed from this indefinite ban placed by FIFA on World Cup and why?
I don't know a lot about football but I think they will let them play eventually. They may have to pay a fine or miss some games but eventually, they should let them play.
I laughed reading your reply from beginning to end 😅😂 and it's the truth.
The whole scenario is funny really.
This was what got me really cracking up 😅😂. Violent and insensible.. Though I don't like the fact that our image are being damaged.
Yeah true, common sense left the group chat when a large group of people decided to make this act.
😂😂😂 omo e be things, they keep damaging the reputation we're trying to build. It's not always easy for people to trust us and would you blame them? Look at the behaviour these people exhibited.
The painful thing is that it doesn't end here, come election corrupt politicians only need to distribute 2k for them to be voted back in and we constantly complain about how bad the country gets every day.
Honestly, no situation justifies violence and destruction of valuables, and even the loss of a life, of someone who's not even Nigerian. But our country is really messed up.
You know the fans never collectively decide on going the path of vandalism, but it's psychology, once a persons thought is translated into actions, others with similar grievances just quickly adopt the violent route. It's the same psychology that played out during the tollgate incidence, Port Harcourt where I stay that wasn't really directly linked to the protest, but youths received the ripple effect of the dark psychological state especially when they share the same sentiment, and opted for violence.
They almost killed me and others in a bus, we were neither the government nor policy makers, but violence is just ruthless and nothing, can ever justify it.
This is indeed true. It's like the herd mentality, it doesn't take so much. Once they see a person move in that direction, others tend to follow without allowing room for logical reasoning.
Just like that endsars period, imagine them attacking people that were meant to be protected. When they were vandalizing and looting shops of the ordinary man, I wondered if they thought that would affect the government. I know some stores that have still not recovered from what happened back then and it took just one person to start it, others just followed suit.
You've spoken well. For one's safety, I'll recommend staying off crowded places, as Nigeria today is like an exposed petrol on the floor waiting for the slightest spark!
Indeed. It can get crazy when a lot of people are in one space at a time
Exactly, how did this affect the government. Just like a child hitting himself so that the parents would feel the pain but yet, how does it affect the parent.
Chai.. thank God you didn't lose your life to the incidence.
When one person acts, others with similar situation takes the same action. Hmm true.
I agree with you you though
I feel most people don't know what taking responsibilities is.
Coz why on earth do you have to vandalise all because you lost that sick and uncalled for
It wasn't even worth it. I didn't watch this match but in the last one I watch, their goalkeeper was doing modelling at the goal post. Man couldn't catch a ball to save his life
It the modelling for me 😂😂💔
😂😂 I was so pissed that day. That's why they lost that match
I tire o...I am sure most of these people did not come out during EndSars. It was a match for God's sake, anybody can win, lose or draw!!
I even just watched the video now sef, they started destroying those stuffs when the match had ended..whats that supposed to do? 🤣 After the final whistle...dumb people🤣
Lol, that time the thing never choke them. Now e don reach everybody side
SO, noe it is starting to chowe them now. They should enjoy it while it lastss
