The National Chairman of the Northern Comrades Movement of Nigeria, Jabir Yaro, has declared that nothing will deter the upcoming protest scheduled for August, aimed at addressing issues of bad governance.
According to PUNCH, Yaro emphasised that no force can halt the planned demonstration, urging citizens to participate in large numbers.
In his statements, Yaro made it clear that intimidation tactics would not succeed in stopping the protest.
