Nigeria’s Vice President Professor Yemi Osinbajo tweeted for the first time following the Lekki Shootings that took place on Tuesday night.

READ: This is a copy of the Self-Certification form govt. wants targeted account holders to fill

In his first tweet addressing the protest, he said “My heart goes out to all the victims of the Lekki Shootings and all the policemen and all other men and women who lost their lives in the past few days in different part of Lagos and Other States. I spoke to some of those in hospital. The pain of these terrible events is palpable in our towns and cities, and some losses are irreplaceable, but we can and will get justice for all of them. I stand with Lagos & all other affected states in these trying times. We pray we will never see a repeat of these tragedies in Jesus name. God bless you all.” – YO

    You YO are part of the problem. Do not patronize us. Resign and go back to your house if you cannot do anything about what is going on in this country. Stop using the name of Jesus in vain. You are a failure. You failed all Christians and all Nigerians.and the blood of these young men shall judge you in the last day.Amen.
