There are ways to protest against bad governance. If we all drive our cars and block roads to Aso Rock, state government houses, ministries, airports, seaport, and all major roads. The masses will have locked down this country. Retweet this.#RevolutionIsNow

This weapon is Favor Assault rifle.
This is what the soldiers who came to stop #RevolutionIsNow have used to shoot at protesters.
This weapon cannot only kill,but will bury the soul
Even our military that is fighting boko Haram do not bear this kinda weapon
