Olatunbosun Oyintiloye, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun, has appealed to protesters to suspend the demonstrations and allow President Bola Tinubu address their demands.
Speaking to journalists in Osogbo on Sunday, Oyintiloye condemned the killing of Nigerians and destruction of properties recorded across the country since the protest began on Thursday.
The former lawmaker said the prolonged economic shutdowns could worsen the plight of the masses.
Oyintiloye asked protesters to engage in dialogue, warning that some individuals might exploit the situation to “destabilise” the government.
“I want to appeal to the youth and the organiser of the hunger protest to embrace dialogue and give the president the opportunity to do the needful,” Oyintiloye said.
“Protest is a constitutional right, but Killings, looting and destruction of both government and private property is not permitted by the law.
“Let’s be cautious of the fact there are some disgruntled individuals who are planning to use the protest to destabilise the government. We must not allow this.
“There is no doubt that there is hunger and poverty in the land. But we can be rest assured that the president is doing his best to improve the economy, but this cannot be achieved within a year.
” Let’s give the president the chance to address the situation, and let’s embrace dialogue for the peace and stability of the country. The president has spoken, lets listen to him and give the administration more time.”
Oyintiloye cautioned protesters against acts that might “provoke” security agents as the carry out their duty of maintaining law and order across the country.
