By Jude Opara

The people of Ganye in the Ganye Constituency of the Adamawa State House of Assembly have issued a notice of protest over non-representation in the Assembly.

The protest is scheduled for Thursday, June 12, 2025.

“Notice is hereby given that some concerned citizens of Ganye intend to commemorate the upcoming Democracy Day by staging a peaceful protest against the Independent National Electoral Commission’s (INEC) inability to conduct a bye-election to fill the vacant seat occasioned by the passing of our late Honourable Member, Adamawa State House of Assembly, a year ago,” the intending protesters said.

In a statement signed by their leader, Abdulrahman Njidda, the intending protesters added, “We urge all patriotic citizens to come out en masse to join the protest.”

The notice asked those who desire to participate in the protest to gather at the Ganye Local Council’s roundabout at 6:00 a.m., then to move to the Atiku Junction (in Ganye) at 7:00 a.m., and finally proceed to the INEC Office at 8:00 a.m. “to deliver our protest letter.”

The notice assured that the protest will be peaceful, with no tolerance for unruly behavior, as security operatives will maintain close surveillance to prevent hoodlums from infiltrating the peaceful protest and creating a security breach.
