So, nobody should allow himself to be used by any individual,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>However, in a post on his X handle on Tuesday, Sowore described the position of the military as diversionary, saying it\u2019s to make Nigerians forget the reason for the protest.<\/p>\n<p>He said: \u201cThere is no crime flying Russian flags during protests, it is not TREASON. Christian leaders fly Israeli flags in churches, and lots of people fly Palestinian flags in solidarity with the Palestinian struggle.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is completely diversionary so that Nigerians would forget the reason there is an #EndBadGovernancelnNigeria revolt against the @officialABAT regime.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re all acting like you care about the Nigerian flag, if so why did you ask the same @HQNigerianArmy to murder young Nigerians waving flags and singing national anthem during the #EndSARS uprising in 2020?
