(This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /home/nexusnew/nigerdeltanews.ng/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6114Apex Igbo socio-cultural Organization, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has faulted the nationwide broadcast by President Bola Tinubu, saying that reversal of fuel price would have ended the nationwide #EndBadGovernance protests.<\/p>\n
It, however, commended him for addressing the economic challenges facing Nigeria.<\/p>\n
In a statement issued on Sunday by Ohanaeze\u2019s factional Secretary-general, Okechukwu lsiguzoro, he said the economic policies outlined in the speech were promising and could potentially address the long-term economic hardship in the country.<\/p>\n
The lgbo Organisation stated that Ndigbo were concerned about the ongoing hunger protests and the heightened tension across the country.<\/p>\n
The statement reads in part, \u201cThe anticipation of the resumption of protests from August 5th to 10th, 2024, is a cause for worry, as the protesters are demanding immediate action from the government.<\/p>\n
\u201cPresident Bola Ahmed Tinubu\u2019s speech had the potential to sway the protesters off the streets if there had been a pronouncement of the reversal of fuel prices or any of the demands put forward by the organizers of the protests.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe economic policies outlined are commendable, but the immediate challenge is how to address the protesters\u2019 demands and prevent further chaos.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are aware that there are local sponsors, in conjunction with international conspirators, who may be waiting for an opportunity to escalate the protests into violence.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Southeast region is not a target for protests, but the North, Southwest, and Niger Delta regions are vulnerable to further unrest.<\/p>\n
\u201cPresident Bola Ahmed Tinubu has the opportunity to address the demands of the protesters through other means and prevent the situation from escalating.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhile the implementation of the economic policies may take time, immediate action is needed to quell the protests and prevent any further destabilization of the country.<\/p>\n
\u201cOhanaeze Ndigbo calls on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to consider making a pronouncement, through his media aides, to address the demands of the protesters.<\/p>\n
\u201cA reversal of fuel prices or any other gesture of goodwill towards the protesters could go a long way in restoring peace and stability in the country.<\/p>\n
\u201cPresident Bola Ahmed Tinubu has the chance to demonstrate his leadership and resolve in addressing the concerns of the people.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is not too late to act and prevent any further escalation of the protests. We urge him to take swift and decisive action to save our democracy and give the government the opportunity to implement the promising economic policies outlined in his speech.\u201d<\/p>\n
