PROTEST: APC North America Urges Nigerians To Shun Protests, Calls For Dialogue, Self-reflection

The All Progressives Congress, APC, has urged Nigerians to shun the planned #EndBadGoveenance protest scheduled to begin on 1st Aug. 2024, and engage in dialogue and self-reflection.

The call was made by Mr Olalelekan Sanni (Chairman APC North America’s Chapter), and the Secretary, Mr Adeniyi Adekola, appealing to the citizens of the country to exercise caution and restraint before taking actions that could potentially set the country back.

The party called on patriotic Nigerians to persuade their friends, family, and acquaintances to stay away from the planned protests.

The APC warned that the #EndBadGovernance protests could do more harm than good and worsen the current economic challenges facing the country.

Mr. Sani, writing on behalf of the party, implored Nigerians to engage the government at all levels in constructive dialogue to find solutions to the pressing issues.

The communique issued by the APC acknowledged the precarious situation the country finds itself in, with the nation teetering on the brink of chaos, laying blames on the doorstep of previous administrations in the country.

“The consequences of these failures have been dire, with abject poverty, senseless killings, and a general feeling of hopelessness among the populace,” the party said.

It called on Nigerians to say “no” to protests and “yes” to self-reflection, personal growth, and collective transformation, as the key to a prosperous future for the country.

The communique read: “As Nigerians, we find ourselves in a precarious situation, and the country is teetering on the brink of chaos. We must acknowledge the gravity of our circumstances and exercise great caution to avoid falling prey to the sinister plans of those who seek to destroy our dear, beloved country.”

“Equally staring at us is the fact that past administrations, tasked with the responsibility of governance, abandoned their core duties but instead took to needless politicking, looting, and displaying a staggering lack of concern for the welfare of the people. The consequences are dire: abject poverty, senseless killings, and a general feeling of hopelessness.”

“In this precarious situation, protests may seem like a viable option, but we strongly advise us all against it. Any form of protest at this moment would only serve to further the interests of the evil plotters, leading to more chaos and destruction.”

“Instead, the party urges us all, especially our leaders, to engage in self-scrutiny and reflection. Let us take a step back and examine our actions, our motivations, and our values. Let us recognise the role we have played in perpetuating the status quo and take responsibility for our mistakes.”

“Only through introspection and a willingness to change can we begin to build a new, prosperous Nigeria.”

“We must reject the temptation to indulge in destructive tendencies and instead work towards creating a society built on empathy, honesty, and integrity.”

“Let us say no to protests and yes to self-reflection, personal growth, and collective transformation, for there lies the future of our dear, great country. Nigeria can indeed be great and prosperous. It depends on you and me,” the party submitted.
