Northern youths under the canopy of the Northern Youth Leaders Forum (NYLF), have called for the immediate arrest and sacking of Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Barrister Nyesom Wike, over threats to democracy.
The forum which comprises 50 youth groups from 19 Northern states and the FCT, made the disclosure in a statement issued on Wednesday, September 4.
The group condemned Wike’s public threat to cause a crisis in PDP-controlled states, describing it as a call for anarchy and a threat to democracy.
The NYLF expressed concern over the Federal Government’s silence and inaction, accusing them of turning a deaf ear and blind eye to Wike’s “inimical, ruthless, arrogant, proud, boastful, and irresponsible utterances.”
The group demanded Wike’s arrest and signing of an undertaking to not initiate or carry out his threat. They also called for his removal from the Federal Executive Council and suspension from the PDP.
The NYLF assured their support for the Senator Bala Mohammed-led PDP Governors Forum and Governor Fubara, stating they will do everything possible within the law to support them.
