The All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain stated this on Channels Television’s The August Protests programme on Friday monitored by News Point Nigeria.

The governor faulted some the leaders of the protests whom he claimed left the protests to children instead of leading from the front.
He reminisced about his younger years as an activist during the military era, saying that he physically led protests against the excesses of the men in boots, and was detained at some points.

Sani claimed some of his party men came to him to organise counter-protests but he rejected the idea because he respected the right to protest and exercised the right during the military regime.
He also appealed to Nigerians to give President Bola Tinubu time for economic reforms.
