Planned protest political – Wike

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, has said the planned protest against President Bola Tinubu is politically motivated.
Wike urged Nigerians to be patient with Tinubu’s administration and not resort to protest despite the hardship.
Nigerians are billed to file out to protest against the biting hunger and hardship under Tinubu’s administration on August 1.
But, speaking during the inspection of Apo-Karshi Road in Abuja, the minister said all challenges facing the country can’t be resolved in one day.
He assured that the government of President Tinubu is doing everything possible to deliver the dividends of democracy in the shortest time possible.
“You can see that the planned protest is political and nothing more. We need to be patient with this government,” Wike said.
Meanwhile, President Bola Tinubu had urged Nigerians to reconsider the planned #EndBadGovernance protest.
Information Minister Mohammed Idris, during a briefing with State House correspondents, conveyed the President’s message, stating: “The issue of the planned protest, Mr President does not see any need for that. He’s asked them to shelve that plan. He’s asked them to await the government’s response to all their pleas.”
