The Arewa Renaissance Group has issued a warning against plans by a coalition of Northern groups to block federal highways. The planned blockade is in protest of the suspension of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan. The coalition has threatened to obstruct major roads unless the Senate reinstates Akpoti-Uduaghan.
The Arewa Renaissance Group argues that such actions will exacerbate the hardships faced by ordinary Nigerians. Blocking highways can disrupt transportation and economic activities, adversely affecting daily life and worsening the situation for commuters and local businesses.
The group’s caution highlights the potential negative impact of the protest, urging protesters to consider the broader consequences on the population.
