The Kogi State Government has condemned violent protests and urged citizens to embrace the ‘Not-In-My-State’ movement, which aims to promote peace and stability in the state.
This is according to a press release issued by the Hon. Commissioner for Information and Communications, Kingsley Femi Fanwo, on Sunday.
The government expressed solidarity with the federal government’s efforts to revamp the economy, noting that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is working hard to get the nation’s economy working again.
“We are totally in solidarity with the efforts at the centre and sub-national levels to put the economy of our dear nation on the right track,” said Fanwo.

The government highlighted its commitment to ensuring the central efforts percolate into the state, with massive investments in agriculture, education, healthcare, and infrastructure.
“We have also continued to support homes across the state with palliatives to cushion the effects of economic hardship,” said Fanwo.
The government warned that protests at this time would be an attack on the foundation of the rebuilding process and an attempt to throw the nation into darkness.
“We urge parents and guardians to give the right orientation to their wards,” said Fanwo. “Nigeria cannot afford another violent destruction of public infrastructure in the name of protests.”
The government expressed commitment to investing in cushioning the impact of economic challenges, promoting industrialization, prioritizing agriculture, and improving standards of living in the state.

“Protests won’t crash the prices of food, intentional investment in agriculture like we are doing at the moment, will,” said Fanwo.
The press release emphasized the need for citizens to queue behind the efforts of the government at all levels to address the challenges facing the nation.
“We are proud of the fact that the people of Kogi have refused to yield the state to the macabre dance of agents of destabilization,” said Fanwo.
