Former Senate Chief Whip Mohammed Ali Ndume has urged President Bola Tinubu to address the concerns of Nigerians that are leading to the planned protest.
Ndume’s call for President Tinubu to heed Nigerians’ concerns came during a Channels TV Politics Today interview.
In reaction to Ajaero’s call for President Tinubu to hold talks, Ndume stated that he is in favor of the motion.
He said, “I second his motion. The NLC president moved that motion. Tell him I support his motion that the president should listen to Nigerians.
“We are 26 days away from the attack in Gworza. My people are struggling to go back to the farm; we are struggling to survive. We can see that the state government and other agencies are working to help us. We are dealing with this situation; we don’t have time to protest. To protest to who? I doubt if the protest will be held in Maiduguri. This is not to say people should not show their grievances.
“My fear is looking at what happened during the EndSARS protest. I hope it doesn’t get out of hand and more especially when you can’t identify the leadership. That makes it more difficult. Even the labour union that went on strike several times, now we only see them struggle to go on protest. But I don’t know who the faces are.”
Ndume is optimistic that President Tinubu will turn things around in Nigeria, given enough time to implement his plans.
He emphasized that economic struggles are a global issue, advising President Tinubu to be more open to listening.
