A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Joe Igbokwe, has said that the planned nationwide protest will not work in Lagos.
Igbokwe stated this while reacting to 2023 presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore’s call for a protest in the state.
Sowore had on Sunday revealed where the protesters would convene.
Speaking via his Facebook account, the activist said the venue for the protest scheduled for August 1 to 10 would be the state Secretariat in Alausa.
He wrote, “#EndBadGovernanceInNigeria, LAGOS is READY! Venue: Lagos State Secretariat, Alausa Time: 7am”.
In another post, Sowore said that in Edo State, the meeting point for the protest would be “Museum Ground, King’s Square, Ring Road, Benin City”.
Commenting on the last post, Igbokwe said the Lagos venue will not work, stressing that the 2020 EndSARS protest almost destroyed the state.
He wrote, “To Alausa? Oga e no go work again ooooo. Lagosians no go smile this time around ooooooo. #ENDSARS nearly destroyed Lagos”.
