EndSARS Protest: Akagburuonye Sues For Peace
Following the ongoing protest in some states of the federation including Abuja by the youths of Nigeria, Chief Success Obioma Akagburuonye has added his voice in the Clarion calls by eminent Nigerians asking the protesters to immediately shield their swords in the overall interest of the nation.
Akagburuonye who is the Founder and National Leader of Hope Rising for Imolites , a subsidiary of Global Support for Nigeria, a non governmental organization (NGO), that drums support for good governance and sustenance of democracy in Nigeria made the passionate appeal in a press statement issued on Sunday through Everest Ezihe, his Media Adviser.
He pointed out that the essence of the protest which is non violence is now defeated as violence has taken precedent at the detriment of the nation.
According to him ” The protests have taken a drastic dimension. There’s an indication that hooligans have infiltrated the protest and are causing mayhem to the nation. The burning of government, institutions and individual buildings and properties are inhuman and an act of unpatriotism. These deserve condemnation and must stop” he insisted.
Chief Akagburuonye who’s a 2018 United Nations (UN) award winner for Philanthropic services and Poverty Alleviation in Nigeria applauded President Muhammadu Buhari for answering the wake up calls and responding to crucial demands of the real protesters as well as advancing the cause for the sustenance of the nation’s brotherly love and unity of purpose.
