<p dir="ltr">&#8220;We have heard that some individuals plan to use the protests to foment trouble,&#8221; said Aremu. &#8220;Life is becoming very difficult for people. People are hungry, and they should be given a chance to voice their concerns peacefully.&#8221;</p>

<p dir="ltr">Garba emphasized the role of their organizations as professional conflict resolution managers, highlighting the widespread belief among Nigerians that they are suffering from economic challenges. &#8220;Nigerians believe there is suffering from here and there. Properties acquired meaningfully could be destroyed if unrest ensues,&#8221; he warned.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The groups are actively working to engage with the federal government, aiming to present the grievances of the populace directly. &#8220;We are working on the ground to meet with the federal government and table our concerns before them,&#8221; Aremu stated. &#8220;We will go back to our communities and live peacefully, but we must tell the President the truth—the pain is on us.&#8221;</p>
