Nationwide protest: Presidency issues fresh warning to Nigerians

The federal government led by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has voiced concerns over alleged plots to destabilize the country.

Dada Olusegun, President Tinubu’s special adviser on social media, raised the alarm on Tuesday, July 23, and alleged that the current government was battling with evil forces over the nationwide protest scheduled for August 1, 2024.

Meanwhile, the protest organised by the Northern Initiative for Growth is scheduled for 10 days beginning on August 1, with Nigerians expected to take to the streets to demand better living conditions and an end to economic hardship.

However, Dada Olusegun, in a post shared on his X page on Tuesday, July 23, accused the masterminds of spreading falsehoods and attempting to discredit government officials.

He tweeted:

Earlier, TimesNow.com.ng reported that LP presidential candidate Peter Obi accused the federal government led by President Tinubu of plotting to arrest him.

Obi spoke while reacting to the claim by President Tinubu’s aide, Bayo Onanuga, that he was behind the planned nationwide protest.

Obi’s spokesperson, Yunusa Tanko, described the allegations as lacking any shred of proof, rather part of a series of plots being hatched by the presidency to blackmail the former party’s flagbearer.
