MINISTER OF STATE PETROLEUM RESOURCES APPEALS FOR CALM AMID PROPOSED NATIONWIDE PROTEST.

The Minister of State for Petroleum Resources Senator Heineken Lokpobiri has called  on Nigerians, especially the youth in the Niger Delta, to remain calm and avoid participating in the proposed nationwide protest.

The Minister stated reassured that,
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is dedicated to revitalizing the economy and bringing renewed hope through well-thought-out policies and programs.
“We understand the frustrations and challenges faced by many Nigerians, but it is essential to approach these issues constructively,” Senator Lokpobiri stated. “
He emphasized the importance of unity and patience as the government works to address the nation’s diverse issues.
“Now more than ever, we need to stand together and support the initiatives being put in place. Our collective efforts will pave the way for a more prosperous Nigeria.”
Acknowledging the role of protests in a democracy, the Minister warned against those who might exploit these events for malicious purposes.

He called for constructive engagement and dialogue over any action that could unsettle the nation.
 “While protesting is your democratic right, consider the broader implications on our national stability and progress. Dialogue and collaboration are far more effective solutions”
