APC To Atiku: We Expect You To Lead National Protest by adenigga(op): 8:24am On Jul 25, 2024
The National Secretary of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Ajibola Basiru, has said that he expects former Vice President Atiku Abubakar to lead the planned nationwide protest.

Basiru stated this during an interview on Channels TV’s Politics Today on Wednesday while responding to Atiku’s latest criticism against the Tinubu administration.

Atiku had criticised the Federal Government and its agencies for trying to abort the planned August 1 protest across the country.

But during the interview, Basiru said that demands of the leaders of the planned protest were political.

He said, “As far as I am concerned, talk is very cheap". I expect Atiku Abubakar on the day of the protest to lead. Nobody has stopped somebody to protest.

“Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and our party, the APC have not stopped anybody from protesting. At various radio and TV stations different people come with ideas some of them adverse to our government. Has anybody been arrested for criticizing our government? That is what democracy is all about heterogeneity of ideas.

“That protest is not about bad governance because when you talk about bad governance there are many parameters that come into play. I don’t know if you have seen the charter of the so-called leaders. Their demands are political.

“They said we should scrap the 1999 constitution and replace it with people made constitution, we should do away with the Senate and then the issue of minimum wage. The President has addressed the question of minimum wage.”

Basiru added that the Tinubu adminstration was working hard to solve the challenges facing Nigeria.

Who told this idiot that this protest is not about bad government.
If the masses were enjoying, will they have time to go out to protest?
I don't blame him, he's protecting his pocket just like every crook is doing right.

Back to Atiku the criminal who's currently residing far away from his motherland was quick to throw jabs by calling for a protest against the current administration.
An administration filled with incompetence and nepotism in a scale that's beyond imagination.

Nigerians don't need Atiku to tell them
what to do, neither do they need to listen to what this criminal administration have to say, because they are scared of the aftermath of a nationwide protest but are slow to making things right.
Hit the streets, that's what nations around the world do under democracy.
Re: APC To Atiku: We Expect You To Lead National Protest by Tochitee(m):

Obi is still a boy that’s why they are already dragging him into a protest he clearly isn’t interested in

How time flies. I remember this guy was very active in Unilag SUG those days. Bashiru was one of Sowore/Malcoms guy that fought cultism to a stand-still at Unilag then. Happy to know he is still on the side of the progressives.

Atiku of Dubai! If Atiku no dey Dubai, he go dey Adamawa!

Obi of Lagos! If Obi no dey Lagos, he go dey Agulu, Anambala!

Jagaban of Aso Rock, Nigeria! If Jagaban no dey villa he go dey bourdillon!

Make the police clean their prison yard wella!

Put enough rubber bullet and tear gas for your shakabula!

Thursday August 1 will be Nigeria vs Protesters!

Apc are just playing. So it's no longer igbos they are pushing to lead its now Atiku? grin

They even went as far as forcing yorubas to schedule their just recently concluded oro festival again to quell the protests cheesy

GRASPING AT STRAWS I am just sitting here laughing at all of them.
Re: APC To Atiku: We Expect You To Lead National Protest by Zxcvbnmghtr:
cry

All I know is that ANY IGBO that calls for protest or joins the protest is a BAS...RD, according to Igbos, "no Igbos should be a part of this protest in any way", unless you are a bas......rd.

As the president of the APC ONLINE PAID AGENT here we are pulling out of the national protest starting from August 1 to 10th.

This is because we want Nigeria to give Tinubu at least four years to test the strength of Nigeria and to know how able they are so that the next four years he will use it to start building Nigeria to look like Dubai.

Thanks for your understanding my fellow Nigerians.

Yes, Atiku should lead from the front and stop urging Nigerian youths to go and get shot at by the police.

Atiku isn’t hungry. It’s your hungry supporters & hungry Nigerians that will lead the protest. Atiku will only lend his voice.

APC is stupid.

Did Tinubu lead national protest?
Re: APC To Atiku: We Expect You To Lead National Protest by SmartPolician: 10:29am On Jul 25, 2024
These APC people are a bunch of confused people. Yesterday, they appealed to people not to protest. Today, they are telling Atiku to lead the protest.
Re: APC To Atiku: We Expect You To Lead National Protest by phemmie06(m): 10:29am On Jul 25, 2024
The ruling can never understand the plight of the masses.
If the protest is political, is the hardship political? If you think it is why not hearken and look into complain of the people or are these people blind and deaf?
Those that keep saying grow your food, have you been able to grow your rice, beans, wheat?
The smallest hollandia milk of 70 _90 is now 250 now yet you're saying protest is political, if that is your believe, please make it apolitical.

Either way, something must give
You cannot beat a child and tell him not to cry
You can't tell the child how to cry either
It's actually in APC's best interest if Atiku leads the protest but the problem is if he has the street cred to do so
