Women in Abuja are speaking out after being misled into participating in a “Say No to Protest” rally. According to a viral video, these women thought they were attending an empowerment program. Instead, they found themselves holding signs against a protest about economic hardships.
The women are frustrated and angry, stating that they were deceived into supporting a cause they did not agree with. They believed they were going to an event that would provide them with resources and support to better their lives. Instead, they were used to undermine a protest planned to address economic difficulties.
One participant said, “We thought we were going for an empowerment program, but we ended up being part of something we don’t support.” This sentiment was echoed by many others who felt tricked and betrayed.
The rally was intended to counter a planned protest against economic hardships in Nigeria. However, the revelation that women were misled into attending has sparked controversy and public outrage. Many are now questioning the ethics and transparency of the organizers.
This incident highlights the need for clear communication and honesty when organizing events, especially those involving vulnerable groups. It also underscores the importance of verifying the purpose and agenda of any event before participating.
As these women continue to share their stories, the hope is that such deceptive practices will be exposed and addressed, ensuring that future events are conducted with integrity and respect for all participants.
