Nigerians Blast Yul Edochie For Discouraging People From Protesting Against Hardship

On July 19, 2024, the controversial actor took to Instagram to urge Nigerians to exercise patience and continue speaking out rather than protesting.

Nigerian actor, Yul Edochie has been lambasted by social media users after he urged people to shun the planned protest against hardship and hunger in the country.

Recall that the protest is scheduled for the 29th of July across the country and also in August.

Yul took to his Instagram page and wrote:

“I acknowledge the hardships. Protest is not the answer. People take advantage of protests to break into other people’s shops, steal, destroy properties, hurt and kill innocent Nigerians who are already going through a lot. In the end, the aim of the protest will be defeated. Remember what happened during End Sars.”

“Protest is not the answer. Let’s be patient. Let’s keep speaking out and doing all we can to help out. President Tinubu listens and he’s doing all he can to make things right. Fellow Nigerians, let’s be patient.”
