Disgruntled elements behind planned protests – Group

The APC Advocacy and Appeasement Group has accused politicians and disgruntled elements who are bent on stifling remarkable progress made by President Bola Ahamed Tinubu of being behind the planned nationwide hunger protests.

Addressing a press conference in Abuja, Tuesday, the national coordinator of the group, Dr. Gambo Bala Iggi, said promoters of the protest are driven by hate and lack of patriotism.

He said it is essential to understand that President Tinubu is not the cause of our nation’s woes but rather a leader striving to correct the injustices and injuries by the past negative political orders which corrupt and misdirected this nation for long.

He said: “The unfortunate reality is that certain individuals who thrived under the previous corrupt systems are now resorting to desperate measures to undermine the developmental policies and the progress made by the current administration.

“It is important to note that these protests are not driven by a genuine desire for positive change but rather by self-serving interests and a blatant disregard for the well-being of our nation.

“The individuals behind these protests are the very same looters of public funds who seek to impede the government’s efforts to recover the stolen wealth of our nation,” he stated.
