The Nigeria Police Force has said that the viral “no gree for anybody” slogan adopted by many Nigerians is dangerous.
Force Public Relations Officer (FPRO), ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi said this while parading 67 suspects at the Force Headquarters, Abuja.
According to the force spokesman, the slogan, which may be well-intentioned, has the potential to incite mayhem and violence nationwide.
Adejobi stated that despite its origin in a gospel song titled ‘I No Go Gree’ by Sister Agatha Moses, the slogan is not a harmless phrase but a potentially dangerous one.
“Let me say it again on this note that the new slogan for 2024 for our young ones is “No Dey Gree For Anybody” and we have been informed from our intelligence that this slogan is coming from a revolutionary sector that may likely cause problem across the country.
“No Dey Gree For Anybody is being seen as just normal talk but in the security business, in the security community we have seen it as a very very dangerous Slogan that can trigger crisis,” he said.
