A pro-democracy group, National Democratic Coalition (NADECO), has called on Nigerians to prepare their minds to reclaim the Nation through peaceful means.
The Executive Director, NADECO, USA, Lloyd Ukwu, made the call in a statement on Tuesday.
He urged Nigerians to step out of their comfort zones and rise to occupy and reclaim Nigeria should the judiciary falter.
It would be recalled that the group had called for the resignation of President Bola Tinubu over allegations surrounding certificate forgery at Chicago State University, among others.
He said: “NADECO USA passionately warns Nigerians to prepare for the full and complete reclamation of their Nation through any peaceful means necessary
“As the ancient wisdom of Sun Tzu reminds us, a malevolent leader may destroy their own land just to maintain control over the ruins.
“Within the governmental framework, we find three vital branches:
“1. The Legislature, responsible for crafting laws for the people.
“2. The Executive, tasked with executing the laws enacted by the legislature.
“3. The Judiciary, entrusted with interpreting the Constitution and laws, and scrutinising the Executive’s actions.
“Crucially, the Judiciary serves as the people’s ultimate safeguard. Should the Judiciary falter, the common man has no recourse but to seek divine justice, a remedy that arrives only after death.
“Consider this scenario: passengers on board a luxurious, air-conditioned bus find it stranded on a slippery muddy slope. Despite the driver’s efforts, the wheels of the bus spin fruitlessly. To free the bus, all occupants must abandon comfort and exert themselves to push the bus out of the mud physically and not rely on the mechanical force.
“Similarly, NADECO implores the Nigerian people to step out of their comfort zones and rise to occupy and reclaim Nigeria should the Judiciary falter.
“By the natural law of survival, the fourth branch of government is the PEOPLE, also known as the COMMON MAN. When the Legislature, Executive, and Judiciary fail, the PEOPLE must assert their authority and reclaim their nation, becoming the last line of defence to save themselves.
“NADECO insists that the Nigerian People, as the COMMON MAN, must prepare to reclaim Nigeria sooner rather than later. Thereafter, the country must be reorganised, restructured, and rejuvenated, with all institutions reinforced.
“NADECO calls on all Nigerians to closely monitor the Supreme Court, for, as Jefferson wisely noted, the price of eternal vigilance is LIBERTY. Nigerians must actively engage in safeguarding their freedom and democratic values.
“Together, in unity and by voicing their demands for change, Nigerians can command respect and attention, securing the future they desire.”
