Avoid protest, sit-at-home, focus on election – Shehu Sani to Nigerians

Civil Rights activist and former lawmaker, Shehu Sani has advised angry Nigerians to avoid protest and focus on the general election taking place in ten days time.

His post on his Twitter handle on Wednesday suggested that Nigerians should get prepared for the election rather than protesting the naira and fuel scarcity in the country.

Sani was a former Senator in the 8th Senator who represented Kaduna Central Senatorial District.
Sani tweeted, “The general public must avoid any form of protest in d name of cash or fuel scarcity at this 11th hour. The people in d south east must defy any call for sit at home. Any spark is intended to lead to conflagration. Anti democratic elements must be resisted. Let’s focus on d election.

His Tweet is at the backdrop of protests rocking the nation over naira and fuel scarcity leading to the burning of banks, vehicles and killings by some hoodlums.
