Kano students’ council condemns #EndBadGovernance protest
The Kano State Students’ Council has cautioned against the planned nationwide protest over the rising cost of living.
The council’s chairman, Yahaya Kabo, at a news conference on Sunday in Kano, urged the protest organisers to exercise caution and embrace dialogue.
Mr Kabo, who called on students to shun the protest, said the council dissociated itself from the planned protest or any anti-government demonstration because the president was tackling challenges bedevilling the country.
“It has come to our notice that some bad eggs from opposition parties are calling Kano state students to come out and protest. I, Comrade Yahaya Usman Kabo, as the chairman of the Kano State Students’ Council, call on the entire Kano State Students to stay away from any form of protest.
“This protest is organised by unknown people who are enemies of democracy and the country called Nigeria.
“The genesis or cause is not the economic hardship, but because they lost the election and don’t want to accept it in good faith. They want to cause violence and chaos,” he said.
