Nigerian Children Appeal To President Tinubu To Stop Planned Protest
Nigerian Concern Children Forum (NCCF) has appealed to President Bola Tinubu to take all necessary and democratic measures to halt the planned nationwide protest.
The Convener General, A’isha Hassan Saraki, from Sunshine International School while addressing the press in Bauchi yesterday, said, “We are here to address the nation, especially our father, His Excellency President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, regarding the planned protest by some Nigerians who are unhappy with the current state of the country.”
“Your Excellency, Sir, as your grandchildren, who are among the most vulnerable and affected whenever there is a breach of law and order, we ask that you do everything humanly and democratically possible to address the key challenges facing our country.”
A’isha Hassan Saraki, who is 8 years old, further pleaded, “We are appealing on behalf of our parents and the nation as a whole for you to find a way to address these challenges to ensure peace in the country.”
Another participant, Precious Fashola from Ogun State, also appealed to the protesters to reconsider their plans and advised the President to engage them in dialogue.
The children, under the umbrella of the Nigerian Concern Children Forum (NCCF), finally called on all Nigerians to be prayerful, expressing hope that the challenges will soon be a thing of the past.
