These sad incidents showed the level of hunger in the land. When the masses protested, they were arrested and charged. What a sad time in Nigeria's history.
The tragic loss of lives due to a stampede driven by abject poverty in the land...people are hungry! This crisis underscores the urgent need for accountability and immediate action to address the root causes of poverty. This is not just a failure of governance but a failure of humanity. This is painful and sad😭😭😭
' it happens because no consequence for any action' if not organiser would have conduct A proper way. In 2002 rice was like 1,500 per bag' if you want to share it you will see crowd of people will still go. My point is proper conduct is needed in any occasion.
Vice President Shettima is leaving in his 21 billion mansion house, less than one year later, more than 50 Nigerians dead, and many more injured scrambling for food. If this alone is not denigrating Nigeria, I don't know what else. President Tinubu and his sycophants will claim that Nigeria is not the only country with poverty issues. Truly, poverty is universal, but the reality is that many in places, even the poor, can afford their own food and electricity or are sponsored by the government. All the critics expected Mr Tinubu to narrow his goals to food production and electricity generating and distribution. Instead, he bought an airplane flying all over the world looking for investors and denigrating Nigeria. For Tinubu's sycophants, one thing is certain, foreign investors will not grow the food Nigerians need.
They should better release Sweet Queen Naomi and Alhaji Oriyomi and pair the nation into 5 countries. The population of Nigeria is too big for a country so as to allow proper allocation.
If people are able to purchase rice for themselves they would not go for palliatives. The cause remains bad government, Tinubu and the vice president are buying new presidential jets and yacht and Nigerians cannot buy ordinary food to eat.
Here in the United States.. 🇺🇸 there’s a capacity for event centers indoors or outdoors.. it can’t be exceeded! A lot of event centers even require insurance for the number of people attending the event! So the planner has to get insurance to cover everyone anticipated to attend! There should be a cap as to how many people can attend and also proper entry and exit ways with people hired to make sure the attendees are adhering to those ports of entry and exit! Lines should be formed and everyone follow! The other day I saw a video of Air Peace with people pushing and tugging at themselves trying to get on the flight.. that is crazy! In 2024?! Who does that?! Where on earth have you seen such madness occur ?!
The presenter in 21:33 says, "in US, crowds are told where exits are at major events". Ummm! Our obssession & constant comparisons with foreign countries where things work is part of the major mental blocks holding us back. What actually does work in Nigeria? When Nigerians stop looking into the mirror & placing themselves side-by-side normal societies; look inwards at their situation & find solutions, they will continue in their fools' paradise of endless suffering.
For those of you that were quick to call for the arrest of the organisers of Ibadan giveaway that led to a stampede, wont you also call for the arrests of Abuja and Anambra organisers too? Instead of people to call a spade a spade that people are hungry and angry, you are blaming people doing what the government has failed to do and the impatience in the lives of hungry citizens. Is this the first time people are organising giveaways? Why is this one so different? The downtrodden are becoming more than the ones managing and the ones living in plenty
Now some bloggers will say they were used for rituals See one person carrying 2bags of rice, 5 vegetable oil Greediness and some were stamped. Hunger is in the nation. God help us.
Imagine your kind gesture turned sorrows and depression Imagine the psychological pains on the provider 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢 This Administration will know no peace They have caused so much pain on the populace
There are good news aswell, which is that new tax reform, and palliative sharing , new roads being commissioned, refineries working and many more , but thank God for Arise , they upload and share everything , it is left for us to do the needful next election cycle or stay away from election again.
I commend all the points reeled out by the anchors but I was stunned that none of them said anything about the indisciplined nature of the average Nigerian that triggers stampedes. Thirty-one years ago, when Buhari and Idiagbon took over the leadership of Nigeria, they recognized that the politicians were from the people and mirrored the people’s idiosyncrasies at the micro level. In other words, almost every Nigerian is an in-waiting thieving politician, only separated from acting out the thieving by the absence of opportunity. This spurred the War Against Indiscipline (WAI). It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to assert that 99% of stampedes is caused by people trying to cut the line or attempting to get multiple rations, but getting opposed by those who uncovered the dishonesty. If all of these measures recommended here, especially those of Sheyitan’s, were implemented, there would still be stampedes as long as the citizenry shows no regard for orderliness. Above all, who would bother with giving palliatives if organizing it would financially cost more than the did the actual palliatives? Often, Nigerians get away with irresponsibility by blaming the leaders. The leaders are from the people, both are responsible for a healthy Nigerian society. How difficult is it to not scramble for more bags of rice when others haven’t gotten any? How difficult is it to proceed only when called and to leave when directed? I write from experience; anyone who has engaged in helping out struggling folks will confirm what I written here - the mentality of Nigerians must embrace discipline again, else there will always be stampedes under these circumstances, even if you deploy battalions of soldiers. We volunteered and distributed palliatives to New Yorkers during the COVID-19 shutdown; not once did we witness a stampede. Hunger doesn’t cause stampedes, indiscipline does.
The reality is that the government of the day has failed Nigerians and there's massive hardship in the land. Only if this government would have a rethink and restore fuel subsidy, the crisis of hardship in Nigeria would reduce.
My friend, hunger causes stampede. Hunger is only the tip of the iceberg called Abject poverty. We are not talking about the common urge we feel to eat something when we are said to be 'hungry'. The hunger that propelled those people to those deadly charity venues is borne out of hopelessness. Many of them saw those opportunities as their last hope of clinging to dear life. Unfortunately they lost their lives. Blame them not. Let's thank God you and I are not in that situation.
Meanwhile, where's the #90 billion subsidy from the FG for Christians during this Xmas season? Muslims got #90 billion subsidy from the FG for their hajj. I'm yet to hear of such an arrangement for Christians.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭I’m literally crying. God help me please. Our president rigged his way to power but has little to nothing to offer citizens except untold hardship. May God help us all.
I see a country where people are ready to take 500 naira to vote against their conscience. Do not blame the people who take such little money, they are helpless. These people need help from all us to salvage the system. I am not just seeing the stampedes across Nigeria at this moment, but the economic implications in our electoral processes. If things continue like this, I am afraid, the future is so bleak.
@@007alztruliBy subsidising agriculture products, empower farmers, buy their products and sell markers for a little less than import price, a lot can be done. Also we need to build industries to create employment, subsidize transportation by providing alternative government buses to ease intercity transportation. Reduce government spending, Tax the rich to provide basic amenities for the vulnerable. It's not rocket science to be honest.
There are Hungry people everywhere in the world, the humane or shameful ways each Country employs to address making food available to its downtrodden masses makes the difference.. Do you that in some sane climes, NGOs, beside setting up free food centres for the needy, they undertake free food supplies to the individual home of those who can't make it to the free food centres. Until organisers of events that claimed lives of innocent Nigerians due to gross negligence of very important safety measures are charged with MANSLAUGHTER, these ugly and sad death incidents will not stop. 13:44
@@nurex9029 Unfortunately you, like too many other Nigerians, will probably never learn. Always looking for the government to control this and subsidise that. The ridiculous inefficiency and corruption and massive debt you've seen from all these places the government is putting their hand in is not enough for you? The main work of the government should be to focus on things like security and enforcing laws, creating enabling environment for businesses to thrive, and fighting against unfair practices like monopolies. If they were doing these things, we wouldn't be in the mess we are today. To be fair though, I think you do have several good points which I can agree with you on, but unfortunately the person in the initial comment was probably not talking about any of the things you mentioned. He was almost certainly implying that government should control the price of food items which would have extremely severe consequences.
This is something people do every year out of the magnanimity of their hearts. This year just shows you the level of hunger - people are weak!!!! This is crazy! What is the meaning of this??
When Kẹmi Badenoch was telling it the way it is, you guys are attacking her for saying the truth? Now see your life now? Is this how Country suppose to be run??? What a failed Country called “NIGERIA”??? My condolences to the family that loss their loved ones.
Very simple. They could set up the perimeters properly, such that all the crowd won't be in one open space. Also, they could do the registration online and give out appointment dates for collection. For example, 100 people could be told to come on December 20, and another 100 on December 21.
This is where Tinubu and his APC AND JUDICIARY have landed us. The amount of money that Tinubu spent on purchasing SUVs can give every Nigerian a bag of at least
And this Government saying we should not complain????? God must surely punish every Wicked politicians who have turned Nigerians to situation. Their family should be ashamed of them all.
This is very first in history when the call for palliatives claimed lives due hunger in Nigeria. God will never forgive our leaders for the death of those innocent children. A bag of rice now sold for 145000 ?
If we have food at home, will we be going out to die because of food? Government wake up and stop gaslighting and blaming those who are trying to help people who can't feed themselves. Terrible APC policies.
It's heartbreaking to witness the tragic loss of lives due to stampedes during the distribution of rice. The widespread hunger in the nation is devastating, and seeing such suffering in my country brings me to tears. Leaders should fear Allah and do what is right to safeguard lives; they need to do more to prevent such tragedies.
Nigeria population 1979-83 was about 65-76 million late president Shagari projected food's for 120million today we're over 250million government doesn't know what the population can eat if we're eating two times a day do the calculations
Do not share the palliative in an enclosure by closing the gates that would create anxiety and pressure amidst hunger and poverty. Distribute your palliative in an open field, not in an enclosure behind gates.
Does it still make sense to rail against Kemi Badenoch for telling the truth about Nigerian leadership (not the helpless public, which includes the poorly-paid police and military)? May the souls of the deceased rest in peace.
The point for Kemi Badenoch is that, she is campaigning in a country and when asked questions, she uses Nigeria that is unrelated to the question to answer. When Davido talked I supported him because the question was about Nigeria.
Nigeria can never learn from their past mistakes. This stamped has happened in the past and is still happening now.All our things doesn't have standard.
Police should release Queen Naomi ex wife of ooni of ife bcos u can see now that the stampede that happened in Ibadan was as a result of hunger in the land
We should not criminalize people for being philanthropic, some of them are not doing these for the first time. What is different now is that the level of hunger had made the crowd size 10 times bigger. The government should address hunger as a state of emergency. The people dying from hunger sitting at home are far greater than the ones. Hunger dey!!!!!
May the Lord judge the people in charge of Nigerians money and making Nigerian people to suffer. I sent 250k to my sister to buy food for my mother, after buying a bag of rice at 85k, money has finish. This got me thinking that if 250k could not buy anything, how about the other Nigerians who doesn't have people to help them. How many typical Nigerians can afford 250k for food stuff shopping this time in Nigeria? God have mercy.
When we said palliatives is not a solution to the current economic hardship this palliative administration has put us, their heartless supporters will always come attacking us. This is sad
Mitigate, crowd control, proper risk assessment and management, yes all these reasons leaving out the crucial reason hyper runaway inflation caused by poor economic conditions. No mention of the current government’s failure to provide for its citizens. All in all these deaths were avoidable no one should lose their lives because they went to get food 🍱
This is simple crowd control. They should put the people on a straight line before any distribution could take place. No organize line, no food distribution. The organizers should have security before any distribution of food. Kids should not be a part of this distribution. Nobody should lose their life because of food.
Am so ashamed of Nigeria , no other country is recording this type of crowd cos of rice ! Oil producing country starving to the extent of dying for rice , this generation have failed the greater tomorrow .
50 people dying over food today in Africa is abomination to Africans and a crime against humanity and shame to mankind 😢. Nigeria is done as a functional society which is very sad on the continent 😔.BLACK AFRICAN UNITY
There is more to these stampede leading to death. Granted there is poverty in the land, there is something that we have not been able to lay our hands on, but God will undertake for us.
The bottom line is that many more people has been driven into poverty and desperation, this is the outcome, it’s not enough for this government to always attack people who try to tell them the reality, This is not the first time people have been doing this kind of Christmas giveaway, some people does it every year and this kind of thing wasn’t rampant as it is now, It’s just a testament of what has happened to Nigerians just within this few months of this government, they can dismiss it as usual but unless they change their attitude, this may just be the beginning, I hope it doesn’t happen again.
Simply put, there is hunger in the land. FG should do something about reducing the price of PMS. We have Dangote refinery now, so, the FG should give special rate for supply of crude to the refinery.
They have to arrest the governor as they arrested Queen Naomi. The law that made them arrest Queen Naomi is the same law for governor so he should be arrested too
The president should be blamed for the death of those innocent citizens; he made life a living hell for Nigerians since he came into office. He gave deaf ears to the cries of Nigerians, the world is watching.
Mr. Ghana. This is a comment in bad taste, but not unsurprising coming from one of your kind. Have some compassion for the family and loved ones of the deceased, at the very least.
Arise TV can you see now that the country is in a mess? There is hunger in the land, and we see upon all the crowd control law enforcements that are despatched there.
Oji Ibadan episode was a story Nigerians are under conical poverty look the money to tackle this problem have been shared inside the 10th National Assembly of the Federal Republic of Nigeria
UNO should come for humanitarian aid to support people of Nigeria. World food program should step it to help the people of NIGERIANS in this hunger crisis.
There is a general lack of health and safety culture in Nigeria. AriseTV, do your staff hold fire evacuation drills? Do you know your fire exits and muster points at your stattions? Importantly, the government cannot continue to say things are getting better, yet the number of people turning up to collect rice is on a significant increase. If this government continues with their current policies, more people will turn up for tissue paper in a few months. Government, change your ways and do better. Hardworking Nigerians are suffering and dying.
Wow! People are hungry! When the economy was good, very few people were coming for paliatives. This administration is creating more poor people faster than ever.
When some of us shouted T Pain means affliction we were kicked down. Hunger fuels agitation and desperation. . This is poverty on rampage. What manner of renewed hope. Palliatives don't solve problems. Patriotism, prudence and good governance is the only game changer.
Let us blame Kemi for inciting our government not to have a policy on things like this. There is hunger as a result of government policies. Winners Chapel handle these things better

No mention of the current government’s failure to provide for its citizens. All in all these deaths were avoidable no one should lose their lives because they went to get food 🍱
What investigation???
They want to investigate what caused hunger in Nigeria 😂
Sooooooo saddd😢
This is simple crowd control. They should put the people on a straight line before any distribution could take place. No organize line, no food distribution. The organizers should have security before any distribution of food. Kids should not be a part of this distribution. Nobody should lose their life because of food.
T-pain should be asha*med of himself as a leader.
The level of hunger in Nigeria has never been experienced before.
The world should take note of the level of dehumanizing incidents. Simon Ekpa is not the problem . Finland , please note. Hunger
Am so ashamed of Nigeria , no other country is recording this type of crowd cos of rice ! Oil producing country starving to the extent of dying for rice , this generation have failed the greater tomorrow .
50 people dying over food today in Africa is abomination to Africans and a crime against humanity and shame to mankind 😢. Nigeria is done as a functional society which is very sad on the continent 😔.BLACK AFRICAN UNITY
There is more to these stampede leading to death. Granted there is poverty in the land, there is something that we have not been able to lay our hands on, but God will undertake for us.
People are hungry. No food in their stomachs. No strength to move and struggle for food.
The bottom line is that many more people has been driven into poverty and desperation, this is the outcome, it’s not enough for this government to always attack people who try to tell them the reality,
This is not the first time people have been doing this kind of Christmas giveaway, some people does it every year and this kind of thing wasn’t rampant as it is now,
It’s just a testament of what has happened to Nigerians just within this few months of this government, they can dismiss it as usual but unless they change their attitude, this may just be the beginning, I hope it doesn’t happen again.
Simply put, there is hunger in the land. FG should do something about reducing the price of PMS. We have Dangote refinery now, so, the FG should give special rate for supply of crude to the refinery.
Just imagine going to find food and getting trampled in a stampede. Nigerians have suffered.
It's so so sad brother! We have greatly degenerated so bad.
They have to arrest the governor as they arrested Queen Naomi. The law that made them arrest Queen Naomi is the same law for governor so he should be arrested too
The president should be blamed for the death of those innocent citizens; he made life a living hell for Nigerians since he came into office. He gave deaf ears to the cries of Nigerians, the world is watching.
Nigerians needs to embrace orderliness and discipline. They should learn to que up on line not rush rush.
Please Nigeria you are the Giant of Africa so set a good exercise because other Africans are learning from you.
What Giant? A giant failure.
Nigeria should be learning from other African countries
Mr. Ghana. This is a comment in bad taste, but not unsurprising coming from one of your kind. Have some compassion for the family and loved ones of the deceased, at the very least.
what a country..
Distribution of palliative is not the solution to poverty. Govt. Should do something to cut down fuel prices, transport cost
Rice used to keep people in Nigeria God help us oo
Arise TV can you see now that the country is in a mess? There is hunger in the land, and we see upon all the crowd control law enforcements that are despatched there.
Oji Ibadan episode was a story Nigerians are under conical poverty look the money to tackle this problem have been shared inside the 10th National Assembly of the Federal Republic of Nigeria
UNO should come for humanitarian aid to support people of Nigeria. World food program should step it to help the people of NIGERIANS in this hunger crisis.
God help us relieve us
When Tinubu have used hunger to finished this ,this the results we that will coming all over Nigeria.
Ajebo go chill, kpako go collect food stampe still happen.. We're all feel it. thank Jah for his Mercies
There is a general lack of health and safety culture in Nigeria. AriseTV, do your staff hold fire evacuation drills? Do you know your fire exits and muster points at your stattions? Importantly, the government cannot continue to say things are getting better, yet the number of people turning up to collect rice is on a significant increase. If this government continues with their current policies, more people will turn up for tissue paper in a few months. Government, change your ways and do better. Hardworking Nigerians are suffering and dying.
God will judge all the politicians who caused all this mess in our country, they will never go on punished! Never
Federal government don't do crowd control. Local government and state government are in charge of crowd control
No ojy it's blow to the government and politicians in Nigeria, not the community
Wow! People are hungry! When the economy was good, very few people were coming for paliatives. This administration is creating more poor people faster than ever.
The people in the government don't care, and you see human beings supporting these people, shame to Nigeria
When some of us shouted T Pain means affliction we were kicked down.
Hunger fuels agitation and desperation. .
This is poverty on rampage.
What manner of renewed hope.
Palliatives don't solve problems.
Patriotism, prudence and good governance is the only game changer.
Let us blame Kemi for inciting our government not to have a policy on things like this. There is hunger as a result of government policies. Winners Chapel handle these things better
Revolution Revolution Revolution nah or never.......this government have directly licence poverty more in Nigeria...this is really bad
It will never be well with Tinubu that made Nigerians this hungry in a land of plenty
This is what happen when laws and policies are missing
