Planned Protest: Redirect your strength to farming, COSEYL tells Nigerian youths
Featured, Politics
THE Coalition of South East Youth Leaders, COSEYL, the apex sociopolitical youth group in the South East geopolitical zone has called on Nigerian youths to shun the planned protest and redirect their strength to farming and agriculture, which remain the major means of ending food scarcity and hunger.
Money without food to buy cannot end hunger, but active farming by all Nigerian youths will end hunger and food scarcity.
Our youths who before now used to assist our fathers and mothers in the farm have abandoned farming and gone into naira bet, and other means of unholy acts of livelihood which contraven our norms and values as a people.
The desire for quick money among youths is one of the major causes of food scarcity and hunger.
In a statement, the group stated that some of the people, who are backing and supporting the planned protest against the administration of President Tinubu because of hunger are the same people sponsoring armed bandits, Boko Haram and other terrorist groups who are barring farmers from going to the farm in the north.
“This planned protest is not borne out of genuine love for our country, but is a deliberate attempt to sow seeds of discord and disunity amongst Nigerians. It is a clear plot by anti-democratic forces and enemies of the nation to invite ethnic tensions and create political instability. But their plot is dead on arrival.
“The organizers of the protest are plotting to choke ethnic division and undermine national unity and harmony in the nation,” it said.
According to the statement, COSEYL will continue to work diligently by giving our unalloyed support to the administration of President Bola Tinubu for the growth, progress, unity and development of our dear country.
