Youth leaders assert futility of protests
Recall that the leaders of the youth organizations in Anambra State paid a courtesy visit to Governor Charles Chukwuma Soludo CFR, on Wednesday, July 31, at the Governor's Lodge, Amawbia, and stated that they will not undertake any protests whatsoever in the state.
The leaders of Ohanaeze youths, National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), Anambra State Association of Town Unions (ASATU) youths stressed that they cannot join the nationwide protests particularly because Anambra State is peaceful and progressing steadily. They added that they would not partake of any disturbances that may lead to riots and the destruction of the great infrastructural developments put in place by the government.
The youth leaders also raised the issue of the futility of protests as an ill wind that will do no good to Anambra State and the Southeast geo-political zone at large.
