The Voice of the Southern People of Nigeria (VOTSPON) along with Igbimo Asoju Yoruba, hereby issue a strong warning against any planned protests targeting the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Such protests are seen as a calculated attempt to cause chaos and disrupt the peace in our nation.
It is important to note that President Tinubu, being a Nigerian President of Southern extraction, deserves our support and respect. Any agenda disguised as a protest to undermine his administration will be met with resistance from the Southern people of Nigeria.
We urge all citizens to uphold peace, unity, and respect for our leaders, regardless of any political differences. Let us work together to build a stronger and more prosperous Nigeria for all.
The president has just clocked only one year two months in office. He inherited a collapsing and bleeding economy and a nation so deeply divided, a battered and shattered economy that a magician cannot repair in one year. Even if the protest is done from August 1st till 2027, it will not produce miraculous results as propagated by those masquerading as leaders of the planed protest.
President Bola Tinubu has appealed to youths to shelve the protest and allow the government to address the economic challenges. A room they said was not built in a day. Nation building is a process. So we urge the youth to come to grips with this universally known reality, and allow the administration and government of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu(GCFR) to work within its legimate four years tenure and if unsatisfied with his Performance they can use their PVC to speak during the next general elections in Nigeria.
We urge Nigerian youths to resist and avoid taking extreme measures that may undermine not only the dispensation of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.(GCFR) but the country as a whole. We need to be patient with the Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu-led government to correct the misrule of the past years, We urged citizens to support the efforts of the president and his Renewed Hope Agenda to ensure the nation is rid of all forms of anti-people policies. Together we can birth a new nation with total and absolute support for President Tinubu to take back our country from those who have held us by the jugular over the years.
We therefore strongly advise Nigerians not to embark on any protest for now because it will only create lawlessness, crisis, looting, killing, disorder and it may take us back into the dark days, “A word is enough for the wise.” Nigerian Youths say NO TO ILL MOTIVATED PROTEST.
On Thursday, the Defence Headquarters (DHQ) said the military has “detected” plans by some “unscrupulous elements” to hijack the protest and perpetrate violence. We, have equally carried out our own private investigation and found out that the Organizers of the so called Protest do not mean well for the progress, development and unity of Nigeria. In conclusion, we appeal to Nigerian Youths to shun the Protest and avoid being dragged into actions that can lead to anarchy and breakdown of law and order. We, from the Voice of the Southern People of Nigeria have spoken. Violent change of government in the name of “End bad governance and days of rage Protest.” Will be resisted in all ramifications.
