June 12: Northern states shun protest, hold Democracy Day, political rallies instead

The event was attended by hundreds of APC leaders and loyalists, including the Speaker of the Kano State House of Assembly, Hamisu Chidari, among other dignitaries.In Kaduna, the Kaduna State capital, another key northern city, major streets were deserted with only few traders conducting their routine businesses, probably due to the heavy rain that fell on Saturday.

“This protest is funny, we don’t buy it. We rather channel our energy toward doing something good. This is a staged protest. They have an agenda just like EndSARS. We can’t buy into it. If 2023 comes Buhari will pack his things and go back to Daura . And we will have another leader,” said Salim Haruna, a car dealer, added.

Mr Sani expressed concerns about the country’s state of insecurity which fueled the calls for the protest in the South, but maintained it did not warrant a protest against the Buhari government. The police chief also advised religious leaders, traditional rulers and all social organisations to monitor the activities of their wards and members to ensure peaceful celebrations and dissuade them from activities that could lead to mayhem in their communities.

If the president was a southerner, the story would have been different .

Picture of PMB achievement

Those celebrating democracy are the lords & sheiks in the north. The poor underprivileged, maligned poor people who have been left uneducated & impoverished yr in yr out, are out begging for food. They have no idea what democracy is.

😂😂😂😂

They shun EndSARS protest too Politics over good governance, Rally over peaceful protests BuharMustGo

It's not a surprise. Willful ignorance and illiteracy remains the tool they are caged with by their elites. In a sane clime they should lead the protest because of bokoharam and fulani herdsmen bandits. Alas, they stand aloof
