Nigerians living in the United States of America have secured permission from the US government to stage a protest against the outcome of Nigeria’s 2023 Presidential election held on February 25.


The Nigerians in the diaspora under the aegis of the Nigerian American Coalition for Justice and Democracy, Inc. in a memo from the permit granted by the United States Department of the Interior, said that the aim of the protest is to express their displeasure and rejection of the election.

Bola Tinubu of the ruling All Progressives Congress was declared the winner of the election.

The protest is scheduled to hold on April 3, 2023, at Lafayette Park, opposite the White House from 8 am to 12 pm with an anticipated 100 participants.

On the purpose of the protest, the convener, Franklin Ekechukwu, said, “Nigerian election was conducted on February 25, 2023, the institution that conducted the election did not follow their guideline nor rule of law in accordance with democratic principles.

“We in the diaspora are demonstrating to call the attention of the US government and Biden administration to not recognise the projected winner.”

There have been protests and counter-protests over the declaration Tinubu as the ‘president-elect’ as some Nigerians have rejected the outcome of the election.

Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, who contested the election under the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and former Anambra governor, Peter Obi, who contested under the platform of the Labour Party (LP) have separately filed petitions challenging the process and the outcome of the election.

They will also present their Visa ban list to White House, US Congress, and State Department on Monday, April 3, 2023, during their protest in Washington DC. WAHALA!!!

Tinubu was declared winner of a controversial and an inconclusive election  ,at the backdrop of no other authority than the electoral commission boss man.but it has been met with public rejections home and in diaspora. Excuses of foreign threat or cyber intrusions to abort the use of the electronic transmission of results from each polling stations is as good enough to declared the election inconclusive or null and void.I can’t fathom excuses of reverting  to the old or obsolete tabulation of votes ,which has enabled electoral fraud in history of the country .I mean , it would be just fair enough to say the nation has failed ,despite the billions of dollars projected on the election .Are we saying we are in a process of trying and error ,and if that’s the case there’s no justification for constitutional amendments on electoral acts ,it’s all down to waste of public resources and waste of legislative resources.Let’s not be partisan in addressing the outcome of the election ,but let’s speak with one language of fairness.,equity and Justice .I personally do not care who or who wins the election but to assure the ordinary man in the streets that your voice and choice of leadership must be respected , it’s now or never Nigerians should flock in the streets to reject the pronouncement of Tinubu as the winner .The election was flaw and INEC violated its own rules .

Even Americans are not happy with the fraudulent emergence of Tinubu as the president elect hence they refused to congratulate him.

Nigeria remains a sovereign state, no amount of propaganda will truncate democracy in our country, the united state cannot rule by proxy in Nigeria. We will fight it with our last blood. They can do that shit in Haiti and other countries but Nigerians are not fools or slaves. Nigeria should join south africa and the bric nations to resist this tyranny
