Group Accuses Dangote Of Fueling Protests, Urges Him to Stop Incitement
*** Says As Yoruba, They Will Resist Attempts To Topple Government Of Tinubu
An Ibadan based group in Oyo State, the O’Odua Integrity Network (OIN), has appealed to Alhaji Aliko Dangote to cease fueling protests and insurrection in the country.
In a Press Statement signed by Chief Adewale Adeosun ( President) and Mr Ige Kilanko (Secretary), the group passionately appealed to Alhaji Aliko Dangote to immediately cease his unrelenting attacks and incitement against the government of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, saying it is crass arrogance to think he can place himself above the elected government.
According to the group, Dangote’s assaults at the administration are unbecoming of him, and it is unacceptable to the Yoruba people
They added that if there was any man that has appropriated everything like spoils of war from Nigeria, it is no other person, but Aliko Dangote, saying that Nigeria has been very fair to Aliko Dangote , “he reaped bountifully while other citizens adjusted their bets to the last of its holes. What else does Dangote want? Probably carry the nation on his head and walk away with it as a private property”.
They noted that they have had enough of his shenanigans as every dog has her day, pointing out that the businessman has profited immensely from the country, sometimes at the expense of other manufacturers, entrepreneurs, and the Nigerian public.
The group accused Aliko Dangote of being the mastermind behind inciting Nigerians against the Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Administration and said that Dangote cannot with a pretentious innocent face and soft mien mask his diabolical intents, labelling him as the schemer at the other side of the curtain and the brain be behind the call to protests and riots by strengthening and giving momentum to cantankerous social media organisers.
They made it clear that they will not watch like helpless widows, while he mobilizes to bring down the Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Administration, saying his actions so far are a threat to national security and stability.
The group claimed that Alhaji Dangote and other caliphate antagonists, as well as some devious forces worked tirelessly against Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the 2023 general elections, adding that their current clandestine acts of sabotage are a continuation of the transferred vengeance and hatred designed to frustrate the Asiwaju-led government after failing to defeat him at the poll.
HERE IS THE FULL TEXT FROM THE GROUP:
AN APPEAL TO ALHAJI ALIKO DANGOTE TO CEASE FUELING PROTESTS AND INSURRECTION IN NIGERIA
We, the O’ODUA INTEGRITY NETWORK (OIN), make a passionate appeal to Alhaji Aliko Dangote to immediately cease his unrelenting attacks and incitements against the government of President Bola Tinubu GCFR. It’s crass arrogance to think he can place himself above an elected government. Indeed, his assaults at the administration are unbecoming of him, and it is unacceptable to the Yoruba people. If there is any man that has appropriated everything like spoils of war from Nigeria – it is Aliko Dangote.
Nigeria has been very fair to Aliko Dangote – he reaped bountifully while other citizens adjusted their bets to the last of its holes.
What else does Dangote want?
Probably carry the nation on his head and walk away with it as a private property!
We have had enough of his shenanigans – every dog has her day. The businessman has profited immensely from the country, sometimes at the expense of other manufacturers, entrepreneurs, and the Nigerian public.
We here accuse Aliko Dangote of being the mastermind behind – inciting Nigerians against the Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Administration. Dangote cannot with a pretentious innocent face and soft mien mask his diabolical intents. He is the schemer at the other side of the curtain, the brain be behind the call to protests and riots – strengthening and giving momentum to cantankerous social media organisers.
We won’t watch like helpless widows, while he mobilizes to bring down the Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Administration. His actions so far – are a threat to national security and stability.
Alhaji Dangote and other caliphate antagonists, as well some devious forces worked tirelessly against Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the 2023 general elections.
Their current clandestine acts of sabotage are a continuation of the transferred vengeance and hatred – designed to frustrate the Asiwaju-led government after failing to defeat him at the poll.
The relentless antagonism, pursuit of power and vendetta will only lead to two things – chaos and destruction – if pushed any further.
A word is enough for the wise. No man has monopoly of destructive tendencies.
The Odua Integrity Network is aware that Dangote and other prominent northern figures are hell bent in their planned protests across the country to bring government to its knees.
However, Nigeria does not belong to a set of people, nor are some citizens second class to others.
President Tinubu supported General Muhammadu Buhari all the way, despite all the General’s warts and flaws – for the eight gruelling years he served as president.
The north cannot in perpetuity impose itself on the rest of Nigerians. So, those pushing to collapse the government of President Tinubu must therefore watch it. It takes two to tangle.
Sadly enough, for personal aggrandizement and greed, the Executive Vice President of the NNPCL is hand in gloves with Aliko Dangote to unseat Engineer Mele Kyari as the Group Chief Executive Officer of NNPCL.
It is therefore a clear indication of a larger plot to undermine the federal government, create instability, chaos and encourage insurrection across the country.
In the light of the foregoing, we ask Dangote to jettison his unholy intentions and allow President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Engr. Mele Kyari to serve their terms without interference.
As Yoruba, we will resist any attempt to topple the Bola Tinubu government. We will not stand idly by while hooligans and Dangote’s mischievous collaborators attempt to destroy the already delicate fabric of our nation.
We therefore urge Dangote to desist from any further actions and allow peace to reign. Nigeria deserves stability progress and development, and not fear amongst citizens, nor chaos and destruction. We call on all Nigerians to join work for dialogue, peace and stability. Let every hand be on deck and be put to work – to build a brighter and egalitarian future for the nation.
If Dangote insists and continues on his treacherous path, the consequences will be dire and unpalatable for everyone.
To taste the sea all that is required is a little gulp, and not a barrel.
Nigeria will be plunged into endless crisis – the social fabrics will crash and so will its politics and economy.
The people shall be the ultimate losers, and the Dangote brand and legacy will be forever smeared.
We make this final appeal to Alhaji Aliko Dangote to sit back and reconsider his actions. All is well that ends well. Let all Nigerians join hands to build a nation where everyone can thrive and be happy.
Let the interest of the nation be put above personal desperation, vendettas and ambitions.
The fate of Nigeria is in our hands. There is no need to dance naked in the market square. We must not falter, else everything shall be lost.

CHIEF ADEWALE ADEOSUN

MR. IGE KILANKO
