Nigerian singer, Paul Okoye, better known as Rudeboy, has said it would shock any bad politician in the 2023 elections that youths are taking back their country.
Rudeboy stated this in a post via Twitter on Friday.
In his words: “If they say we are only making noise on twitter and social media ……. Then how come everywhere dey scatter and going Gaga for PVC e go shock dem … youths taking back their country”.
He condemned the attack of Igbos who shut down their shops to register for PVC, saying “what kind of evil act is this ? ….. people closed their businesses to go register and get their pvc … and they are been attacked”.
TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) reports that there was a mild drama on Thursday at Alaba International Market, Ojo, Lagos after Igbo traders who had shut down their shops to register for PVC were attacked by hoodlums.
Officials of the international market had instructed that all shops be shut down to allow their members ample time to get their PVCs at the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC office in the Igbede area of Ojo.
Following the aforementioned ultimatum, there was a massive turnout of traders, mostly of Igbo extraction at the registration point.
However, while the registration exercise was ongoing thugs armed with machetes, sticks and clubs were said to have stormed the venue to disrupt the process and also made moves to cart away the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, machines but they were overpowered by the traders.
TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) gathered that the traders visited Ojo Local Government Area, which is the venue for the registration.
The registration was said to be ongoing when the registrants became frustrated by the availability of a single registration terminal.
Videos on the incident obtained by TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) highlighted how officials of the market mobilized their members and also show the aftermath of the attack.
A Twitter user, identified simply as Columbus, said registration was ongoing when some hoodlums allegedly besieged the premises to steal the terminal being used for the registration.

I like said, Igbo are the most political advanged group in Nigeria considering their huge presence in every corner of the country, this potential has never been trapped. pic.twitter.com/gEpcbxtzxs
