Arewa Group Demands Prosecution Of Perpetrators Of Violence

The Arewa Citizens Action for Good Leadership (ACAGL) has condemned the violence that marred the end bad governance demonstrations and called for a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding the events.

In a statement by the spokesman, Saeed Sulaiman Umar, ACAGL strongly condemned the looting and vandalism of public and private properties and businesses in Kano which cost the state and people losses worth billions of naira.

“This is one of many fears that forced ACAGL to earlier announce withdrawal from the protest although there were many genuine people who simply wanted to register their complaints to the authorities.

“Similarly, reports have emerged of protesters in Kano and other states waving the flags of a foreign country. This troubling act raises serious questions about the underlying motivations and influences propelling some protesters.” Such behavior not only undermines the legitimacy of genuine grievances but also suggests a deeper, more insidious agenda aimed at destabilizing our nation.

“We have also learned that the accounts of certain individuals and groups alleged to have sponsored these protests have been frozen by the authorities. This action is a significant step towards uncovering the truth about the orchestrators behind these demonstrations. However, it is only the beginning, and much more needs to be done to safeguard our nation from both internal and external threats,” he said.
