In a press statement signed by the president general of the Yoruba community in the state, Chief James Olorunfemi, titled: “A Call for Restraint, Peace and Unity by Yoruba Community in Sokoto and the North West States with Regards to a National Protest,” the group appealed for calm and the shunning of the protest slated for August 1, 2024.

The statement reads, “The Yoruba community Sokoto and the North West States, under the leadership of Chief James Olorunfemi, deputy president-general of Yoruba Community North West States and president-general of Yoruba Community Sokoto, appeal for calm and shunning of the upcoming protest.

“To be sure, we understand the grievances, we acknowledge the concerns and frustration that are the driving force for the planned protest, and the economic hardship is heard by everyone. However, we appeal to the public to give the present administration a chance to continue the process of economic recovery.

“Labour and trade unions thought it wise to reason with the government by accepting N70,000:00 as the minimum wage for Nigeria workers, and there are other promises, among which is the continued reviewing of the minimum wages every three years.

“The EndSARS protest should be a chilling reminder for us of what a protest of this nature can cause and the possibilities of it being hijacked by disgruntled actors to cause mayhem.

“Yorubas are primarily known for peace, unity, and tranquil harmony, our core culture and values. Unity and peaceful coexistence among all strata of the societies as a Yoruba community domiciled in the Northwest States and the North should be our watchword.

“We believe constant dialogue engagements and collaboration with the current administration should be the solution,” Olorunfemi said.
