June 12 Protest is Designed to Destroy Abiola's Legacy - Group Allege, Urge Nigerians to Shun It

It has come to the knowledge of the National Youths Coalition that the hidden agenda behind the planned June 12 nationwide protest by some Nigerians is to obliterate the legacies and good memories of the late winner of the June 12, 1993 Presidential election, Chief MKO Abiola.

In a statement released to newsmen in Lagos by the national coordinator of the coalition, Mr. Olugbenga Michael, the group said the protest was hatched by some 'anti-democratic forces' who are not happy that President Muhammadu Buhari choose to honour the late democracy icon who gave his life in defence of democracy which Nigerians are enjoying today.

The group said that instead of celebrating MKO Abiola on June 12 for paying the ultimate price for democracy, anti-democratic elements across the country want to use the occasion to create confusion, anarchy, instability and inflict pains on Nigerians in the name of protest so that they could have the opportunity to advance their criminal activities of looting shops, parks and kidnapping people for ransom the same way they unleashed their evil agenda against Nigerians during the #EndSars Protest last year.

Accordingly, we have credible Intelligence that some hoodlums have been tasked with the responsibility of setting worship centers, foreign missions, banks and some national assets ablaze in order to blame it on the government or accuse the Nigerian authority of being responsible.

Their sponsors have also arranged for some foreign media and civil society groups to amplify their evil agenda or destructive propaganda against the Nigerian Government before the international community.

Therefore, we advise Nigerians; especially the youths to shun any form of protest on June 12 as anything contrary would be regarded as an insult to the memory of the late democracy icon, Chief MKO Abiola.

Finally, we call on parents, guardians, religious leaders and traditional rulers to call their children and subjects to order and never allow them to be used by the enemies of our democracy to destroy the nation we hold in trust for them.

To be forewarned is to be forearmed!

Signed:

Mr. Olugbenga Michael,
National Coordinator,
National Youths Coalition

Backstabbers as usual

are they shearing money or Job on June 12 day? What did they give Nigerians for the June 12 they celebrated last year? Tears, Sorrows and blood. Nonsense

Booked

Sowore protest never start everything have started falling apart, when he was attacking Oga Jona. He ignored the senile revolution-now irate dog, he has been arrested like a common thief he is by DSS. Yoruba think they can kick Buhari out and replace him witj Osinbanjo.

Lmao, they never disappoint... Nigerians would always find a way to justify the darnest things

And they think MKO is happy where ever he is with the current state of Nigeria democracy in the Hands of APC and buhari government.

These are government stooge trying to undermine the protest.

We know there tactics, northern bastards posed as yorubas. Yes, we want to attack abiola, Afterall,he's our son.

There was a sit at home, and a majority complied...
The June 12 a majority are talking about protesting and not sitting at home...
It’s insensitive to compare both!!!
You usually come up with weak arguments why?

June 12 is not Abiolas day it’s democracy day

June 12 is a public holiday to commemorate the struggle for democracy NOT a Protest day of any kind. It is a commemoration day and not a protest day.
If you wouldn't protest on Biafran day, why the call for protest on June 12?

Egbami o, did I call for a protest?
The same way I sat down and observed like a spectator on May 31st , is the same way I’ll sit down and observe June 12 protest or not...
Tell that to angered Nigerians ready to hit the streets!

Then maintain your lane and don't laff out your small ass while saying " they never disappoint".
You've been told June 12 is to celebrate a legacy and not to protest. Do otherwise & get your ass kicked.

Who is backstabbing who?

APC group

The most sophisticated tribe of idiots

Yoruba's should not fall for the tricks of the career activist called sowerey....not a fan of buhari but it's obvious that this will be used as an opportunity to repeat what happened during the EndSARS...some animals want to replicate the instability in their region and bring it over to the SW...... don't fall for the bait.....sowore is a scammer, looking to profit off crisis.

1. This group is nonexistent.

2. Mr Gbenga Michael is also nonexistent.

3. Shame on you Mr lai Mohammed. I can perceive your stench from a thousand miles.

I participated in the June12 riots itself in 199-94 and many June-12 rallies therea Abiolafter to actualized this mandate which is to ensure government recognized MKO Abiola as a duly elected president hence enjoy the benefits therein posthumously.

Does it mean I was disgracing or making the highly respected Abiola less a human? Who is this sycophantic group anyway? Are these people telling Nigerians that this is the kind of democracy Abiola or we fought for? Anyway every corrupt souls have a price.

How?

Trashy talk from a non-existent group. What better day is there to protest anti-democratic tendencies of this administration than the day set aside for democracy?

They have armed Lai Mohammed with another trash to run with

We won't allow them to destroy Nigeria

Let the dead rest and let the living live
