Hardship: APC State Chairmen plan counter rally against August 1 protest

The Forum of All Progressives Congress, APC, state chairmen
have vowed to embark on solidarity rallies across all political wards, local
governments and state capitals including Abuja FCT to re-echo the laudable
projects and the programs of President Bola Tinubu.



 



Secretary of the Forum, Alphonsus Eba while addressing a
press conference on Monday in Abuja said the forum would embark on a solidarity
rally over the August 1 planned protest.



 



The forum added that violent protest being contemplated by
the faceless group as contained in their charter of demand would annihilate the
democratic ideals to which all political parties subscribe.



 



The chairmen said while things appear to be tough today,
there was hope for a better tomorrow through the policies, programs and
projects of President Tinubu.



 





Eba said: “Against this background, in the next two weeks
commencing from today 29th July to 11th August 2024 and from this press
briefing, which shall follow with a solidarity rally by all structures of our
party across all political wards, LGAs and States capital including Abuja FCT,
we shall embark on a peaceful rally to re-echo the laudable projects and the
programs of President Tinubu with greater vigour to protect and defend our
democracy from any attack by hoodlums or some criminal elements who wants to
carry out violent protest



 



“This is unacceptable and we must resist it in the most
civil manner by sensitizing innocent and peace-loving people of our country
about the plans of failed politicians who want to get power through every
illegitimate means by inciting ignorant Nigerians to embark on violent
protest.”



 



The forum called on all patriotic Nigerians to resist any
attempt by anyone or any group of persons to intimidate them into unorganised
protest likely to endanger the peace of the nation.
