Police warn Nigerians against ‘No gree for anybody’ slogan

The Nigerian Police Force (NPF) has warned Nigerians against using popular slang, ‘No gree for anybody’, saying it can plunge the country into crisis.

“No gree for anybody” slang recently gained widespread attention, especially among youths, across the country.

Many believe the slang is about staying true to one’s beliefs and not easily succumbing to the influence of others.

However, the Force Public Relations Officer, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, while speaking at a press briefing in Abuja on Wednesday, January 10, warned that the police could clamp down on people using the slang.

Adejobi 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.”

He further disclosed that the police arrested three suspected members of a gunrunning syndicate in connection with the December 24, 2023, attack on some communities in Plateau State.
