Put your children in front - DeeOne challenges protest organisers

Nigerian comedian and reality show star, DeeOne, has called out protest organisers for using the lives of young Nigerians to play politics.

DeeOne, who made the call on Thursday night, accused protest organisers of using other people's children while keeping theirs overseas.

While noting that Nigerian youth have become smarter, he challenged the organisers to let their children and family members join the protest.

The comedian further warned Nigerians not to let those who claim to be tired of Nigeria's situation use them.

"Anybody that calls for protest, let their family and friends be part of the protest. Enough of this brainwashing 'we are tired, we are tired'.

"If we're tired, let your family be part of the protest. Protest wey you go keep your own family for house, keep your family abroad, con dey sacrifice the lives of young Nigerians.

"Nigerians are now smarter than that nonsense. Put your children in front. Stop depending on people's children for protest. We are ready to protest, but let your children follow us. I am someone else's child; bring out your children too. Let every family donate their children for the protest. My people, shine your eyes oo, don't let them use you oo."
