Shehu Sani Warns President Jonathan for more Dead Bodies

No amount of intimidation will stop Nigerians from protesting the scrapping of petrol subsidybecause it is inhuman, callous, insensitive and destructive, President of the Civil Right Congress Shehu Sani said yesterday.

Sani in a statement in Kaduna said the removal of the subsidy was irrational, illogical, immoral and barbaric, and that it would lead to loss of lives. He said President Jonathan should be prepared to carry dead bodies of people who would starve to death because of his action.

“The Federal Government has literary sent all Nigerians to the gallows and incinerator. His government has entrenched poverty and misery and hunger. President Goodluck has sacrificed the lives and livelihood of millions of Nigerians in order to save more money to share to state governors and defence contractors.

“Diezani Allison-Madueke, Okonjo-Iweala and Lamido Sanusi, the gang of three who advise Jonathan to remove petroleum subsidy, should be ready to help him count the numbers of dead bodies and ribs of hunger his inhuman decision will cause. The removal of petroleum subsidy is a condemnable act aimed at annihilating Nigerians to appease the economic interest of neo liberal cartels,” he said.

He called on all Nigerians to unite and join the nationwide civil disobedience campaign starting Monday.
