The Nigerian Civil Society Forms have warned that the planned nationwide protest may not be the solution to the country’s problems. This was revealed at a press conference held at the Nigerian Union of Journalists, Kano State chapter, by Comrade Garba Sulauman Marafa of Wazobia Conflict Resolution and Dr. Adeniyi Aremu, representing Civil Society Organisations.
According to the CSOs, the planned protest may lead to violence and affect lives and properties. They urged Nigerians to shun the protest and give leaders more time to address the issues.
“We are calling on Nigerians to avoid the protest and provide additional time for our leaders to find solutions to the problems facing the country,” said Comrade Marafa.
The CSOs emphasized that dialogue and engagement with stakeholders are more effective ways to address the country’s challenges.
