The Nigeria Police Force has warned that “no gree for anybody,” a trending slogan among youths for 2024 is coming from a revolutionary push which could trigger chaos across the country.

Force police spokesperson, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, at a press briefing on Wednesday, said that based on intelligence, the police were informed that the slogan was aimed at triggering a revolution in the country.

Mr Adejobi said, “Let me say it again that the new slogan for 2024, “No gree for anybody.” We have been informed by intelligence that this slogan is coming from a revolutionary sector that may likely cause problems across the country.

“No gree for anybody’’ is being seen as a normal talk but in the security community we have seen it as a very dangerous slogan that can trigger crisis.’’

“No gree for anybody,” a slogan in pidgin parlance loosely meaning hardiness or pig-headedness adopted by youths on social media for 2024, is trending as young Nigerians, including celebrities and brands jump on it.

The nation’s social media space had in the past witnessed trendy slogans inspired by musical, social, economic and political developments in the country. Some of the slogans included “Cut soap for me,” and “shege’’ among others.
