The Presidency yesterday told promoters of revolution that regime change cannot be effected without election, saying days of revolutions and coups are over. A group known as Global Coalition for Security and Democracy in Nigeria plans a “revolution” march today with the aim of bringing “regime change.”

Presidential spokesperson, Garba Shehu in a statement said President Muhammadu Buhari and his administration respect and uphold the right of every Nigerian to peaceful protest and civil campaign- whether to raise awareness on issues, and even oppose the government.

“It is the inalienable right of all citizens of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to do so. “There is, however, a difference between peaceful call to protest and incitement for a revolution. “The organisation championing this planned action is not fronted by any serious public faces. We call on the sponsors and organisers to have the decency to come forward and make their identity known – out of respect to all Nigerians – so that Nigerians can be fully aware in whose name this “revolution” is being proposed and who the beneficiaries may be.

“Less than six months ago, Nigeria held simultaneous presidential and parliamentary elections. Both contests were won resoundingly by President Muhammadu Buhari and his All-Progressives Congress party. The campaign was observed, and results were confirmed by international election monitoring groups and observers.

The result was even contested by the losing presidential candidate and his party in Court,” he said. He said the ballot box was the only constitutional means of changing government and a president in Nigeria. “The days of coups and revolutions are over,” he said. He said those making the “revolution’’ call hide behind the veil of social media modernity.

“But without revealing the identity of their sponsors this shadowy campaign is no better, and no more democratic, than the days of old. “The President calls on all those who seek to use and hide behind everyday citizens to attain power through undemocratic and violent means, which has been alluded, to come out clearly and be identified.

“They should lead their march in person. Only then will they begin to have the right to call themselves leaders before the people of Nigeria,” he said.

Just in late 2014 here, didn't Buhari protest?

Buhari is a hypocrite

Bulcrap balderdash.

Someone should remind the marauding terrorist Fulani fools in Aso Rock that theirs is not a legitimate govt.

Tell them they are living on stolen mandate and Nigerians are starting a protest to demand their merchandize.

Tell them they are cows that only think of the welfare of their fellow cows.

evil people

let see how yoruba revolution will go.


Igbos stay clear.

Though the revolution is immature coupled with poor organization...

Politicians are stylishly jittery

Awol1:


Bulcrap balderdash.

(in sarrik voice)

You almost sound like a patriot

If not for the hates speech against our able president

sowore and his gang are terrorist

So they will be treated as one

Either way Life imprisonment or Death by hanging

PMB benefited from a coup, benefited from occupy Naija in 2012. Urged Nigerians to protest against GEJ in 2011, citing the arab spring as a movement to be copied.
In 2019 he suddenly realizes all of these are undemocratic.

Please do us the honors to remind the 'marauding Fulani fool' yourself. If its too far from you, your govermnet house is also a good option.

Be reminded that the one whom you claim stole mandate won the last elections in which your mad-man-turned-activist and the cumin one participated and lost squarely.

Let me even ask you, honestly, did you vote in the last elections? Because in a country of 200 million people only about 25 million people actually came out to vote.

And you talk of stolen mandate? What were you expecting?

This is what happens when you disobey court orders and irresponsibly remove the CJN so you can put your lackey there

Well, the way you are treating our soldiers I would not bet on that.

A man that couldn't gather 100,000 votes during the last election is calling for revolution
