Fatoba expressed his belief that protests would exacerbate the situation rather than improve it. He appealed to youths to avoid protesting for the sake of peace and progress, considering the significant challenges the President is facing to set the country on a path of development.
Despite acknowledging Nigeria's socio-economic challenges, Fatoba described them as part of a structural adjustment necessary for lasting solutions. He urged youths to support President Tinubu's efforts instead of disrupting economic activities through protests.
