The Nigerian Police Force has expressed strong disapproval of the popular slang, “No Gree for Anybody” currently embraced by youths and citizens across the nation.
Despite the slang gaining widespread attention for promoting individual resilience and adherence to personal beliefs, the police, represented by spokesperson Olumuyiwa Adejobi, issued a cautionary statement indicating potential action against those using the phrase.
In a press briefing held on Wednesday, Adejobi disclosed that the police had received intelligence suggesting that the slogan could have the potential to incite a revolution within the country.
The caution serves as a stern warning to individuals using the catchphrase, signaling the authorities’ readiness to clamp down on its usage.
He said, “Let me say that the new slogan for 2023, 2024 for our young ones is ‘no go gree for anybody.’
“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 go gree for anybody’ is being seen as just a normal talk, but in security business, in the security community, we have seen it as a very dangerous slogan that can trigger crisis.”
