Basking in euphoria of his birthday, the OPC reformed leader, Dare Adesope has stated why his group OPC Reformed did not partake in the past nation wide protest and also affirmed his group will not also partake in any subsequent ones not until six month.
The OPC leader said this while addressing the press on Wednesday at the group headquaters in Lagos. “Except we do not want to be fair, we all know there is economic hardship in the country but Nigeria is not the only country facing hardship so we are not in support of any protest because the outcome is not always a good story”. Speaking further on the matter, the OPC leader said, It will be very unwise to destroy government property while hiding under the canopy of protest,such action will always set us back.
We do not join protest because we are security conscious group, we are ready to protect lives and property of our people especially from those who want to use protest to looth their business.
My candid advise is to give President Tinubu just six months from now to effect changes if not I personally will lead peacefull protest against him. Although, we all know it will take a lot to build what has been destroy for lenghty year but we voted for him because we believe in him.
People around Tinubu should advise him to open Benin border because we need to bring in what we don’t have .
Responding to mockery from people after voting for Tinubu, he said, I do tell them that it is very easy to destroy but always take a lot to repair.
Adesope in spirit of his birthday celebration gives out cash prizes to many of his members in all Yoruba speaking nation including Abuja to help suppress hunger ” The emporwerment which started last year is my own way of rewarding my members, some of them loose their jobs in the course of this struggle and also to help ease their burden in this hardship ”
He also talked about his security mission for Yoruba land “My security mission for Yoruba land is for my people to build fence freed houses and still have sound sleep” And yoruba kings should also know their worth, even if such king is being imposed by a governor, he should embrace spirit of royalty to avoid rubbing yoruba culture in the mud.
