Eminent Nigerians in the North under the aegis of the Arewa Initiative for Defence and Promotion of Democracy, have said the harsh economic situation being faced by Nigerians is the fallout of the comatose economy handed over to President Bola Tinubu by his predecessor.

The Arewa Initiative which is also an amalgamation of Pro-Democracy Groups from the 19 northern states under the Chairmanship of Prof Shehu Abdullahi Ma’aji also stated that Nigerians should ignore sponsored protests staged against the Federal Government in Kano and Niger states recently.

Some Nigerians particularly in Minna, the Niger State capital, recently took to the streets, protesting the harsh economic situation in the country arising from recent hike in prices of goods and commodities.

Similar protests were also held in Kano and Kogi states over the hardship in the country.

Addressing the media in Abuja, the Chairman of the Arewa Initiative, Ma’aji, said pockets of protests staged in some states, were uncalled for, and the Federal Government is already addressing the problems.

Ma’aji further pleaded that an eight-month-old government was too early to be assessed, let alone criticised by people with ulterior motives
The group noted that it consulted with various Northern stakeholders and that “the North is solidly behind President Tinubu and will continue to support and cooperate with him for the actualisation of his Renewed Hope Agenda.

He said, “The current administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu inherited a lot of problems from the past administration of Muhammadu Buhari which it is currently trying to address.

“For instance, the Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazagq and chairman of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum had just revealed that the crude oil the country will be getting in the next six months had been sold in advance by the immediate past administration and the solutions to the problems cannot be instantly solved but in a gradual pattern.”

Ma’ji added, “Nigerians should show patriotism by cooperating with this administration in its bid to find solutions to the country’s problems such as inflation, corruption, insecurity – banditry, and kidnapping that the country is currently facing.

“Disgruntled politicians and other unpatriotic elements who have perfected plans to mobilise bogus civil society organisations to stage phantom protests across the country to smear the image of this administration should stop their evil machinations.”

The Arewa group, however, added that they are not averse to any form of legitimate protest to show grievances to government policy or programme provided it is done in good faith and under the laws of Nigeria.

You can insult Good Luck Jonathan all you want because you are a hypocrite. But nobody protested of hunger during his time 😂

Interesting

It's true tho

No don't blame Buhari, blame the PDP years of rule.
Nonsense people, APC always looking for who to blame for their failure. They lack ideas to take responsibilities.

Thunder fire APC, the excuse is always the same.

'Buhari inherited poor economy from Goodluck'
'Tinubu inherited poor economy from Buhari'


Them sabi say na stupid supporters dem get.

Buhari's 8yrs did nothing to improve the poor economy he inherited ba?
And idiots decided to vote for Buhari pro max.

We are such a docile population.

Delusional people supporting evil because of pienuts. Tinubu work is to improve from where Buhari stopped. Instead things has become worst and economy nothing to right home about. Buhari left the economy with dollar less than #800. Last Friday I bought dollar from United Bank for Africa at the rate of #1680.32
All APC government economic policies are nothing but trial and error. They will be speaking English for you people until 4 years elapsed.

These people are really shameless. Always looking for whom to blame. Didn't their lord said he will continue from where Buhari stopped?

ignore this sponsored group

who says corruption doesn't kill?

Kill corruption or corruption kills Nigerians...................fact.






All the political parties and non-political parties ( all the leadership of which 95% of them are terrible and corrupt) of this country right from independence contributed to bringing Nigeria down to its kneels.....................fact

So because he inherited harsh economy means he should make it worse?

The same harsh economy he supported for 8 years, they should tell us another joke

This is the way Tinubu rolls , just like he organised fake Bishops, give then money to wear cassock.
He has infiltrated arewa group with bribery, Which how other groups will come out start blaming past government.

They will soon beg ipob to say that Tinubu governnment doing badly is because of Buhari

We know the bonafide arewa groups.

Who be these ones o?

SisterAnn:
We know the bonafide arewa groups.

Who be these ones o?

These are the ones that have a conscience.

They should keep blaming na, like their blame can affect anything.

Throwback:


These are the ones that have a conscience.

Wahallur!

It's typical of tinubu's style... Divide and rule.

You will soon see one Yeye group from the SE protesting and rallying support for the tinubulation of the citizens.
The masses are wiser.

Our people from falling sun are in pain

They thought the Northerners would mount more pressure on Asiwaju but it's unfortunate they are disappointed


God shall humiliate the enemies of Nigeria

Jen002:
