P.M.EXPRESS reports that Nwalozie stated this on the heels of the agitation for protests against the President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration over economic hardship in Nigeria.
Eze Nwalozie, who is also the Ezendigbo in Ikeja LGA, stated that despite the fact that protest is part of the democratic process, it will not yield the desired result at this critical time that President Tinubu is working tirelessly to revamp the economy.
He assured the Lagos State Government and the party leaders in the State that Ndigbo will not participate in the protest and will continue to cooperate with them to maintain peace in the State.
While explaining that the protest is not an option for now, Eze Nwalozie stated that it will not make any sense at this period the Federal Government is looking for ways to revamp the economy for some faceless people to be busy mobilizing people to embark on protest to worsen the situation. He declared that Ndigbo will not participate in such senseless protest in the State.>>>CONTINUE FULL READING HERE
He noted that truly the people are suffering due to the economic problems facing the country, but embarking on protest will not achieve the desired results because hoodlums will use the opportunity to destroy lives and property in the State.
Eze Nwalozie stated that he has been educating Ndigbo and other ethnic groups on why they should not participate in the protest and assured security agencies, State Government, Party leaders and other critical stakeholders that Ndigbo will not participate in the protest in Lagos State.
He urged all Nigerians to support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and give him time to fix the economy and other challenges facing Nigeria and that all should be patient with him.
He also urged Ndigbo to continue to support Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s administration, the ruling party in the
State and continue to maintain peace while going about their normal businesses across the State.
“President Tinubu is just one year in office and he needs more time to implement his policies in order to improve on the economic hardship many people are facing in Nigeria” he said.
Nwalozie also called for peace and unity among the ethnic groups and posited that when there is peace and unity, Nigeria will surmount all economic and security challenges facing it.
The position of the Council of Ndieze led by Eze Nwalozie was in line with the position of the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, CP Adegoke Fayoade, ruling Party led by President Tinubu, who have also advised against embarking on such protest.
Various stakeholders had been called upon to educate their people especially the youths in their areas not to participate in the protest because the Police will not allow the destruction of lives and property as was the case during the EndSARS protest.>>>CONTINUE FULL READING HERE
