President Bola Tinubu has appealed to youths in the country to shelve the planned nationwide protest billed for August 1.
Speaking with State House correspondents on Tuesday, July 23, after a meeting with the president, Mohammed Idris, minister of information and national orientation, said Tinubu is working hard to address the grievances of the young people.
According to the minister, “We also discussed the issue of the country generally, and Mr. President has asked me to again inform Nigerians that he listens to them, especially the young people that are trying to protest.
Mr. President listens to them; he takes what they say seriously, and he is working assiduously to ensure that this country is good not just for today but also for the future.
The issue of the planned protest—Mr. President does not see any need for that; he asked them to shelve that plan, and he has asked them to await the government’s response to all their pleas; he has listened to them like I said.“
