President Tinubu Urges #EndBadGovernance Protesters: Keep Peace, Avoid Violence
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has called on the #EndBadGovernance protesters not to allow violence and destruction to tear the country apart.
The president made the call on Sunday in a nationwide broadcast on the #EndBadGovernance protests across the country.
He said the federal government was committed to listening to and addressing the concerns of Nigerians.
“My dear Nigerians, especially our youth, I have heard you loud and clear. I understand the pain and frustration that drive these protests, and I want to assure you that our government is committed to listening and addressing the concerns of our citizens.
“But we must not let violence and destruction tear our nation apart. We must work together to build a brighter future where every Nigerian can live with dignity and prosperity.
“The task before us is a collective one, and I am leading the charge as your president. A lot of work has gone into stabilising our economy, and I must stay focused on ensuring that the benefits reach every single Nigerian as promised,” he said.
The president said his administration was working very hard to improve national infrastructure and create more opportunities for young Nigerians.
“Let nobody misinform and mislead you about your country or tell you that your government does not care about you. Although there have been many dashed hopes in the past, we are in a new era of renewed hope. We are working hard for you, and the results will soon be visible and concrete for everyone to see, feel, and enjoy.
“Let us work together to build a brighter future for ourselves and for generations to come. Let us choose hope over fear, unity over division, and progress over stagnation. The economy is recovering; please don’t shut out its oxygen. Now that we have been enjoying democratic governance for 25 years, do not let the enemies of democracy use you to promote an unconstitutional agenda that will set us back on our democratic journey,” he said.
