Don’t make Lagosians regret accommodating non-indigenes, Monarch warns protesters
The monarch stated that those planning the upcoming protests are non-indigenes and reminded residents of Lagos of their accommodating nature.
Oba Lukman Adebambo, the Gbadewolu of Araromi in Lagos State, has warned protesters against actions that could damage the state’s infrastructure.
The monarch stated that those planning the upcoming protests are non-indigenes and reminded residents of Lagos of their accommodating nature.
Adebambo said, “Whenever there is a protest, Lagos State’s infrastructure takes the hardest hit. It’s important to remember that Lagos State welcomes everyone, and its residents should not be made to regret their hospitality.
“We will no longer tolerate the destruction of infrastructure under the pretense of protest.”
Adebambo urged the agitators to express their grievances through peaceful and constructive means.
He stated, “While it’s true that there is hardship in the country, this is not unique to Nigeria—other countries are experiencing similar challenges.”
“Protest is not going to solve the crisis at hand. People should remember what happened during the last #EndSARS protest, a lot of things were destroyed, and lots of companies and government properties were destroyed.
“These are also part of what is affecting us today; the destroyed properties were built with public funds, and the money that were supposed to be used for other projects are being used to refurbish those properties,” he added.
The monarch assured that President Bola Tinubu’s administration is aware of the current economic situation.
