The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) have warned that the ‘no gree
for anybody’ slogan being used by youths can lead to crises in the country.
The ‘no gree for anybody’ catchphrase has attained virality
status in the Nigerian social media space and on the streets.
It has also been jocularly adopted by the zeitgeist as the
nationwide motto for 2024.
The catchphrase loosely means ‘do not tolerate any form of nonsense from anybody’ or ‘do not allow yourself to be bullied by anyone’.
During a press briefing on Tuesday in Abuja, Muyiwa Adejobi,
force spokesperson, said intelligence reports show that the catchphrase is
capable of plunging Nigeria into a crisis of monumental proportions.
Adejobi said although the catchphrase is being seen as
“normal talk”, those in the security community view it as a “dangerous” slogan.
“The new slogan for 2024 for young people is ‘no dey gree
for anybody’,” Adejobi said.
“We have been
informed from our intelligence that this is coming from the retributionary
sector that might likely cause problems across the country.
“No dey gree for anybody is being seen as just normal talk.
In the security community, we have seen it as a very dangerous slogan that can
trigger crises.”
At the briefing, the force spokesperson said three members
of a syndicate have been arrested in connection with the Christmas Eve attacks
on some communities in Plateau state.
The suspects are Ahmed Sulaimon, Balikisu Aliyu, and Aboki
Samuel.
