According to reports, the Arewa Youths for Peaceful Coexistence (AYPC) has called on Nigerians to shun a planned protest by activist Omoyele Sowore demanding the release of detained IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu. The group alleged that the demonstration, scheduled for Monday, is not a genuine call for justice but a deliberate attempt to destabilize President Bola Tinubu’s administration and incite chaos across the nation.

Key Points:
  • Arewa youths accused Sowore of plotting to incite anarchy through the protest.
  • The demonstration aims to demand the release of IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu.
  • The group urged Nigerians to learn from the “bitter experience” of the 2020 EndSARS protests.
  • AYPC reaffirmed its support for President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.
  • They emphasized that Nigeria is governed by the rule of law and an independent judiciary.
  • The youths called for national unity and progress through dialogue, not confrontation.
  • Sowore has yet to publicly respond to the allegations.
As tensions rise ahead of the planned protest, the call reflects deepening divisions over activism, rule of law, and national unity in a still-healing nation.
