NYAG Withdraw From Any Plans To Go Ahead With The Protest To Safeguard Our Ontegrity And Nigeria’
We invited you here today in respect of the organized protest which has been scheduled to take place beginning on the 1st of August 2024.
In a statement Signed by the National Coordinator Abdullahi Usman and made available to news men revealed that
The Northern Youth Alliance for Good Governance NYAG, has been involved in mobilizing Nigerians around the country to partake in the said protest in order to find a way of calling the attention of the government concerning the untold hardship of the common Nigerians.
However, we want to inform the general public that as a result of wide consultations between our members, we have decided to withdraw from any plans to go ahead with the protest to safeguard our integrity and Nigeria’s
national peace and security, which we believe are paramount. NYAG is therefore calling on all Nigerians to embrace dialogue.
News has reached us that there are political elements who are planning to hijack our planned protest and use it for their selfish political agenda. They wish to turn the planned peaceful protest into a riot that may aggravate the situation in Nigeria, hence worsen the condition especially that we know there are desperate people who may justify looting and destruction of public property and businesses. The NYAF shall not be part of any such egocentric and destructive agenda.
We, therefore, call on our fellow Nigerians to embrace dialogue, and encourage the government to engage the stakeholders for a robust discussion to end the ongoing hardships faced by Nigerian. More efforts must be made and more measures should be taken to improve the current situation of Nigerians. We believe that President Tinubu is committed to the ongoing reforms and should be supported by all well-meaning Nigerians.
In the North, millions of our youth will return to agriculture once the security situation is brought under control.
NYAG remains committed to the welfare and well-being of the Nigerian people, and peace and security of Nigeria at large. We urge against any violent protests. We support dialogue.
