According to them, the government in the space of one year has been able to deliver transformative policies that would better the lives of the people and most importantly the youths of the country. Hence, any form of protest at this moment is seen as a means to distract the government.
“No protest will hold in the southwest. If you see any Nigerian coming out to protest now, they are lazy people and sponsored by the opposing party. This is not the right time to protest. Mr. President is really working to make changes, and you people are here to distract him.
“The government is just one year and as youths, we can testify to the policies that have been brought forward to better people’s lives.
“The student loan programme and the recent Local Government autonomy jab on the governors are pointers to the fact that this government is truly here to renew our hope.
“So, all we should do at this moment is to ensure that we render our unwavering support for those policies and programmes to be effectively implemented rather than allow us to be used as tools of distraction.
