Organisers of the just concluded #EndBadGovernanceinNigeria protest held nationwide from August 1 to 10, 2024, are planning to stage another protest in October.
The Director of Mobilisation of the Take It Back Movement, Damilare Adenola, confirmed the planned protests to Newsmen on Monday 19th August 2024.
Adenola said the protesters’ demands would remain the same unless there were other issues, requiring them to add more.
Recall that youths across the country had staged the #EndBadGovernance protests nationwide, including the Federal Capital Territory, despite efforts by government officials, urging youths to shun the protests.
The protesters, days before the demonstrations, had submitted a list of demands, asking the government to among others, scrap the Senate arm of the National Assembly and make law-making a part-time job for the House of Representatives, pay Nigerian workers a minimum of N250,000, reverse fuel prices and the cost of electricity tariffs to pre-January 2023, and to release and compensate all EndSARS and political detainees.
Asked whether the protesters would heed court orders from state governments requiring them to hold demonstrations at designated points, Adenola responded that they won’t accept the compliance.
