The Federal government has stated that it would resist anyone calling for a regime change.

It urged Nigerians making such requests to wait till the 2027 presidential election to cast their votes for their preferred candidate.

The Minister of Solid Minerals, Dele Alake, stated this while addressing State House correspondents after the inaugural Council of State meeting under President Bola Tinubu on Tuesday, August 13.

Alake opined that the recent anti-hunger protest held across the nation was a movement by some persons to effect a change of regime but that the said forces were greatly resisted. He said that the council thanked Nigerians for resisting an unconstitutional move to change government.

“Matters of state were discussed in a robust manner, and the National Security Adviser was on hand to present the security situation of the country, and he did inform the Council of State about the pre-, during and post-events of the last protest which I do not call a protest.

I call it a movement to effect a change of regime by force which was also resisted. The council thanked Nigerians at large for resisting an unconstitutional move to change government. If anybody is not satisfied with the government, or the current administration, there is always an election coming, so you wait for the election and cast your vote.

The NSA briefed the council on the security situation and laid bare… So after the NSA briefing, he allayed everybody’s fears and spoke on the tightness of the security around the country and also reassured all that nobody will be allowed to truncate our hard earned democracy.

Any change of government has to be through the ballot and not through the barrel of the gun, or through insurrection or through any other unconstitutional means. Only through the ballot box can any government be changed and reassured of the security readiness of all security agencies in the country to secure our territorial integrity and to protect Nigerian’s democracy.” he said
