I Engaged In Protests But Without Violence – Tinubu
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu yesterday spoke about the planned nationwide protest by some Nigerians, emphasising the importance of sustaining democracy and its institutions.
He said that protests are an integral part of democracy, but that no government will condone demonstrations that will lead to the destruction of lives and property.
Speaking at the Presidential Villa in Abuja when he received a Letter of Credence from the newly appointed United States Ambassador to Nigeria, Richard Mills Jr., Tinubu admitted that he was part of those who engaged in peaceful protests without resorting to the destruction of property.
He said: ‘’During the military era, we made our voices heard against dictatorship, and I was part of the group that engaged in peaceful protests without resorting to the destruction of property.
