Coastal Dwellers have called on President Bola Tinubu to halt any plot by conventional security agencies to assault the operatives of the Royal Fouche Security Limited.
The group made this known in an open letter to the president which was made available to our correspondent and read as follows:
OPEN LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT OF THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA.
April 21, 2024
His Excellency
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu
State House, Abuja
Your Excellency Sir,
As concerned citizens and representatives of the Dwellers of Coastal and Waterways Communities of Africa (DCWCA), our hearts weigh heavy with concern for the safety and security of our beloved nation, particularly in Rivers State.
Recent developments on internet news have indicated a troubling plot that threatens to undermine the peace and stability painstakingly built by our coastal communities.
We are gravely disturbed by reports indicating a sinister scheme aimed at disrupting the commendable efforts of Royal Fouche Security Limited, spearheaded by the esteemed Alhaji Mujahid Dokubo Asari.
It pains us deeply to learn that the very guardians of our security, the Nigeria Security Agencies, are allegedly orchestrating an assault on the dedicated workers of Royal Fouche Security Agency and other private security entities in Rivers State.
In this hour of uncertainty, we turn our eyes to the highest office of the land, the esteemed President of Nigeria, with an impassioned plea for intervention.
Mr. President, we beseech you to heed our call and use your authority to halt any actions that may endanger the lives and well-being of our coastal citizens. Your decisive action is imperative in preventing further escalation of tensions and preserving the peace that is the lifeblood of our coastal communities.
While we cannot definitively prove the political undertones behind these alarming developments, the whispers of suspicion linger in the air.
It is incumbent upon our leaders to rise above partisan interests and prioritize the safety and security of every Nigerian, particularly those in our coastal regions who are vulnerable to various challenges.
Your Excellency, we can not forget the lessons of our past, where political differences were allowed to sow seeds of discord and division among our coastal brethren.
We plead with Your Excellency to unite the Nigeria’s dwellers of the coastal waterways in solidarity, transcending political boundaries to safeguard the sanctity of our democracy and the welfare of our coastal people.
Mr. President, we implore you to intervene swiftly and be decisive by sending a clear message that the security and well-being of every coastal Nigerian is non-negotiable. Your actions today will shape the destiny of our nation and reaffirm our collective commitment to peace, unity, and progress.
With unwavering hope and trust in your leadership,
Signed:
Harry Macmorrison,arpa
National Publicity Secretary
