The National Cordinator of N-power Youth Congress (N-PYC), Joseph Enan Maigari has today condemned a fake news tittled "Npower Protest: No Protest (Stay Calm)" which stated that he (Joseph Enan Maigari) had ordered the N-power Beneficiaries not to demand their rights from the Federal Government as bona fide citizens of Nigeria, the only country they can call their own.
Maigari in a Statement pointed out that "Protest is the right of any aggrieved citizens and therefore if Volunteers wish to march for their demands to be met, it's their prerogative to do so" adding that at no time did he issue a statement to dissuade the beneficiaries from demanding a fair treatment from Nigerian Leaders.
His words read:
"IGNORE COWARDS- N-PYC'S NATIONAL COORDINATOR, N-POWER YOUTHS CONGRESS. (N-PYC'S)
"National Coordinator Hon.Joseph Enan Maigari wishes to advise Npower Volunteers to ignore determined agents of fake news bent on spreading false stories to Volunteers in order to gain cheap relevance.
"We react to the utter falsehood and disgraceful lies, a statement by so-called State Representatives titled "Npower Protest: No Protest ( Stay Calm)"
"This statement is sheer fabrication and brazen effort by some imposter's to mislead Volunteers.
"At no time did I issue such statement or directed anyone to issue it on behalf of our movement.
"Protest is the right of any aggrieved citizens and therefore if Volunteers wish to March for their demands to be met, it's their prerogative to do so.
"Cowards should stop using my name to validate their foolishness.
Don't let yourself to be manipulated by any medium that specializes in peddling fake news in the desperate quest for relevance or show off."
The N-Power Youth Congress (N-PYC) had in a media briefing in Maiduguri, Borno State demanded the recall of disengaged 500,000 N-power beneficiaries across the country or N500b paid to them as exit package.
The National Cordinator of N-PYC, Joseph Enan Maigari while making the request in October expressed disappointment noting that it was the third briefing on the matter, yet, the Federal Government has refused to listen to our demands.
He said if the Federal Government could not absorb the disengaged beneficiaries, it should pay N500b grant to the 500,000 youths as exit package.
Reacting to President Mohammadu Buhari's address on the EndSARS Protest, the Congress frowned at the deaf ear given to the disengaged N-power Beneficiaries noting that no statement was made on their disengagement and plight while there were mention of N-power in the Presidential address.
