FG Points Out Peter Obi For Organizing #EndBadGovernment Protest

The Presidency has fingered supporters of Peter Obi, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, and Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB) as the orgnisers planned protests nationwide protest tagged #EndBadGovernment.

Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, made the claim in a statement on social media.

The protest said to be is aimed at drawing the attention of governments at all levels to the plight of the citizens and scheduled to take place in the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory, FCT.

While the development is gaining traction in the north, many of the organisers remain anonymous

But in a series of post on Saturday morning, Onanuga alleged that the same group of individuals, who were instigated by IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu to launch the destructive ENDSARS protest in 2020, are now planning to stage nationwide protests under the guise of “EndBadGovernance” and “Tinubu Must Go.”

The Presidency described the protesters as “anarchists” and “bad losers” who are unable to wait for the next election in 2027.
Onanuga warned that their actions amount to high treason and called on security agents to interrogate the individuals involved.

The statement reads; “REVEALED: Peter Obi’s supporters are the people planning mayhem in Nigeria: Obi should be held responsible for anarchy.

“Don’t be fooled: the malcontents planning to stage nationwide protests are supporters of Peter Obi, the failed presidential candidate of the Labour Party. And he should be held responsible for whatever crisis emanates from the action.

“The protest planners are also the same people who were instigated by IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu to launch the destructive ENDSARS protest in Nigeria in October 2020. ENDSARS began as a genuine protest by youths against the Police Special Anti-Robbery Squad, notorious for its high-handedness. IPOB members planning to extricate the South East region from Nigeria infiltrated the protest and hijacked it for their agenda. Lagos still bears the scar of the malicious destruction by IPOB elements until today.

“Two years after ENDSARS, the IPOB, and the gullible innocents joined the Labour Party in 2022 to support Peter Obi, a sympathizer of their cause.

“They are the people spreading the hashtags ‘EndBadGovernance’, ‘Tinubu Must Go,’ and ‘Revolution2024’. They are not democrats but anarchists. They are attempting to call out our people via propaganda because their Messiah, Peter Obi, failed to win the Presidency in the 2023 election. As bad losers, they don’t have the patience to wait for another election in 2027; they would rather destabilize Nigeria by staging a civilian coup against President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

“If they understand the meaning of their hashtags, they will realize they are clarion calls for treason. Wanting to end an elected government is high treason. Wanting revolution is a call for a coup d’etat, which is also high treason.
