Onuzulike said; “We equally salute president Muhammadu Buhari for understanding in the first place that he is a Nigerian, and therefore, showed empathy to the feelings of Nigerians since the commencement of the protests. The constant directive that the protesters must not be harassed and intimidated by the law enforcement agencies shows that the President fully understands that legitimacy truly resides with the people,” added Emeka Nwachukwu, IPAN’s vice president.

He said; "We applaud the decision of the federal government to quickly swing into action towards meeting the five points demands by Nigerians on this matter. It shows the resolve of the government to stand with the collective will of the people."

He added that; "We also salute Nigerians for winning this war. At the same time urge everyone to remain peaceful and law abiding, so that we will truly win the war in the real sense of it.
