Vice President Kashim Shettima has stated that this is the time to solve Nigeria’s problems and not a time to protest.
While explaining that the right to protest is guaranteed in most democracies around the world, Shettima noted that in starting the agitation one does not know where it will end adding that protest may be a road to anarchy.
Speaking at a high-level meeting in Aso Villa, Abuja, the vice president stressed further; “We appreciate what Nigerians are going through, and our heart goes out to them. The oil subsidy has been an albatross on our neck for 50 years. Once the harvests start coming, we believe it will have a positive effect on the common man.
“I wish to call on you to advocate for diplomacy, engagement, and patience. the president is very much committed to the Nigerian project but it’s like a percolation project.” He added.
