In a ststement signed by its Chairman, Samuel Katung and the Secretary, Tanko Mustapha, the group explained that it decided to join the protest because “President Buhari seemed not to be in charge of the current government, allowing the cabals to be in the driver’s seat while he(Buhari) is in the passenger seat.”
The group further stated: “We are believers in the personal integrity and capabilities of President Muhammad Buhari and it is out of love and desire to see him carry this country to the Next Level that we joined the protests to force him to take the wheel of the Nigerian ship and not forsake the country in the hands of a cabal without people’s mandate or human sympathy.”
