In a bold statement resonating across social media, Arewa Twitter Connect has taken to its official X (formerly Twitter) handle to issue an ultimatum to the Nigerian government and judiciary. The influential northern group demanded the immediate release of detained children, calling for their urgent provision of food, shelter, and medical care.
The post, which has quickly gone viral, read, “We give the government and judiciary 48 hours to release these children and provide them with the necessary care they deserve. Failing which, we shall mobilize en masse for a peaceful protest!”
Arewa Twitter Connect’s call to action has ignited widespread support and raised pressing questions about the condition and welfare of minors in custody. The group argues that the detained children are being deprived of their basic human rights, and they are prepared to take to the streets in peaceful protest if swift action is not taken.
This demand underscores a growing frustration among Arewa youth, who feel the government has repeatedly failed to uphold the welfare of vulnerable populations, particularly children. Activists across the country have rallied behind Arewa Twitter’s stance, with prominent figures amplifying the message on social media and calling on the authorities to act immediately.
As the deadline approaches, all eyes are on the government and judiciary. Will they heed Arewa Twitter’s call, or will the nation witness a peaceful protest that could further spotlight the plight of detained children?
This ultimatum may represent a pivotal moment in the country’s handling of children’s rights and public accountability.
