The Zamfara State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC has cautioned residents against participating in the planned nationwide protest as it is likely to be hijacked by hoodlums.

The State chairman of the party, Tukur Umar Danfulani noted that the APC National Headquarters held a meeting with the state executives of the party from all the 36 states, and the National Working Committee members, chaired by Abdullahi Ganduje over the impending protest.

Danfulani’s warning was contained in a statement issued to newsmen in Gusau on Saturday, where he also alleged the likelihood of criminals who make life unbearable for the people taking over the protest and worsening the security situation.

“So let’s think wisely to avoid wanton destruction of our country in the name of protest because most of the countries that carried out such protests in the past are now experiencing more difficulties than what caused the protest”

“Like in Sudan, the people protested for the hike of bread price, but now they are buying bread at five times the cost before the protest price and a lot of citizens’ properties, government infrastructures, businesses, health facilities were all destroyed with many people homeless and turned refugees within their country and its neighbours”

“The same thing in Libya, Syria, and most current one in Kenya, so let’s resolve our grievances through negotiation and dialogue because no country will progress through protest that will lead to anarchy if hijacked by hoodlums”

“Though the protest is an expression of citizens’ constitutional rights, all channels of amicable resolution of the problem can not be said to have been exhausted”

“As Muslims, Islam abhors protests and for the fear that no one can tell the extent of damage such protests could cause, it is better to find other avenues of settlement.

“Our President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is a listening leader who is doing his best to make Nigeria a better place for all”

“He is the only president that took the Nigeria governors to the supreme court to ensure that government at the grassroots is fully functioning which I believe, with local government areas having full autonomy, issues of unemployment, insecurity, hardship and other criminalities will become history in the country”

“So let’s support him in that direction through goodwill and prayers for the benefit of our future generations”

“We are civilised people. We should not be instigated by the enemies of our country who are abroad enjoying with their families and can not even come near the protest venues, but can only watch and comment on social media”

“Life is beneficial to its owner, and health is precious to human beings. Living in peace is gold, so let’s unite for all”
