The planned nationwide protest scheduled to begin tomorrow, was to enable Nigerians register their grievances against the harsh economic situation occasioned by the removal of fuel subsidy by the President Ahmed Bola Tinubu led administration.

Briefing newsmen on the decision to pull out the planned protest, the leader of the group in Ondo State, Mr Ogundipe Seyi Olaniyi, said the decision followed the interventions of prominent indigenes of the state.

He said the group was neither induced financially or intimidated, but resolved to pull out of the planned protest due to the interventions and security reports that some groups were preparing to hijack the protest to settle ethnic scores.

"It is easy to accuse Nigerian youth of having being bought over financially, but I want to assure you that the group did not indulge in any financial gratification, but respected the appeals from prominent indigenes of the state "

According to him, the planned protest has already achieved some its aims as President Ahmed Bola Tinubu has taken some proactive measures to address many of the issues raised by the organizers.

Mr. Ogundipe Seyi Olaniyi, said the group, Concerned Revolutionary Youths, has written to its counterparts across the country of its intent to pull out of the protest and continue to dialogue with government on issues of concern to Nigerians.

He added that the group in Ondo State has also written to security agents and concerned authorities signifying its intent not to participate in the planned nationwide protest.
