A post shared that the Federal Pensioners of Nigeria threatened a nationwide naked protest on November 24 if the government fails to pay outstanding pension increment arrears and palliative allowances.
One user responded insensitively: “Lmao, if una like, rub charcoal while naked, your cowardice outs us all in these mess.”
Mocking citizens demanding what is rightfully theirs shows a lack of empathy and understanding. Pensioners worked their lives to contribute to the nation and deserve dignity, not ridicule. Comments like this trivialize legitimate grievances and discourage civic action.
Disrespecting peaceful protest doesn’t solve problems — it only exposes a society’s impatience with justice. Support, understanding, or constructive dialogue is the only productive response.
