The Yoruba Youth Council has condemned the planned protest against the chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Prof. Mahmood Yakubu.

The protest, organised by the #ReformINEC and #SackYakubu Movement, is scheduled to commence in Abuja.

According to the Yoruba Youth Council, the protest was a misguided and unnecessary diversion from the nation’s path toward peace and progress.

The council believed that the claims of demanding electoral reform and calling for Prof. Yakubu’s resignation were insincere, unfounded, and appeared to be orchestrated by disgruntled individuals seeking to destabilise the nation for selfish interests.

The council expressed regret that the agitators aimed to exploit perceived public dissatisfaction to undermine the significant strides made in the electoral system under Prof. Yakubu’s leadership.

They firmly believed that the actions were an attempt to tarnish the image of a hardworking and patriotic Nigerian who has introduced critical reforms to enhance electoral credibility and transparency.

The Yoruba Youth Council, therefore, called on security agencies across the country to remain vigilant and thwart any attempts to disrupt national peace.

They also urged Nigerians to remain vigilant against unpatriotic elements who seek to exploit democracy for personal gains.

In a statement, National President of the Yoruba Youth Council, Comrade Eric Oluwole, empathised the council’s support for Prof. Yakubu and his commendable efforts in reforming Nigeria’s electoral system.

The statement read: “It is regrettable that these agitators aim to exploit perceived public dissatisfaction to undermine the significant strides made in our electoral system under Prof Yakubu’s leadership. We firmly believe that these actions are an attempt to tarnish the image of a hardworking and patriotic Nigerian who has introduced critical reforms to enhance electoral credibility and transparency.

“Let it be known that the Yoruba Youth Council stands against this ill-advised and ill-motivated protest. It is evident that this movement seeks to discredit the government of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who has been unwavering in his efforts to transform Nigeria into an economic powerhouse for the benefit of all citizens.

“We call on security agencies across the country to remain vigilant and thwart any attempts to disrupt national peace. Such baseless and provocative actions are a threat to the stability of our nation and must not be tolerated.

“The Yoruba Youth Council proudly supports Prof Mahmood Yakubu and his commendable efforts in reforming Nigeria’s electoral system. His reforms have garnered global recognition, and it is crucial that we collectively reject attempts to derail these advancements through spurious and divisive protests.

“We urge Nigerians to remain vigilant against unpatriotic elements who seek to exploit our democracy for personal gains. Together, we must protect our nation’s peace, stability, and progress.”
