The Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF) and the National Consultative Forum (NSCF) have raised alarms over Nigeria’s worsening state of affairs.
The group also cited that harsh living conditions have reached a critical point, fueling widespread frustration and anger among the population, urging Bola Tinubu to intervene in recent hardship in the country.
“The time for action is now; failure to act could result in an uncontrollable scenario of public outrage,” AYCF warned.
In separate statements issued, the association noted that the mounting resentment within the population has reached an alarming point, with the likelihood of imminent mass protests becoming more pronounced.
The leaders warned that the youth, in particular, are experiencing a profound sense of disillusionment and disenfranchisement, which has eroded their hopes for a better future.
The statements however read, “The economic situation is dire, with Nigerian citizens grappling to make ends meet as the cost of living continues an upward trajectory. Unemployment rates have surged to record levels, businesses are collapsing, and the purchasing power of the average citizen is diminishing at an alarming rate.”
They urged the government to take immediate action to alleviate the brewing tension and avert impending public unrest, stressing that “the authorities must prioritize the welfare of the citizens, working diligently to improve living conditions for all Nigerians.”
“The time for action is now; failure to act could result in an uncontrollable scenario of public outrage,” leaders warned. They urged all Nigerians to maintain calm and composure amidst these adversities and called on the government to prioritize the welfare and security of all citizens, emphasizing the need to create a conducive environment for economic growth and development.
“Let us, as a nation, unite to address the challenges we face and work towards building a better future for current and future generations,” they added, stressing the importance of collective effort in overcoming the nation’s difficulties.
