ORGANISERS of the nationwide hunger protests under the hashtag EndBadGovernanceInNigeria have announced that the demonstrations will resume on 1st October.
It will be recalled that nationwide protests were held from August 1st to 10th over the increased cost of living in the country.
Omoyele Sowore, the Action Alliance Congress (AAC) presidential candidate and a key organiser, announced in an interview on News Central TV.
He revealed that ongoing meetings between organisers have been focused on strategizing the next phase of the protests.
“This protest will resume at the beginning of October and might even start earlier depending on situational variables.”
The organisers are demanding a reversal of fuel subsidies, an increase in the minimum wage to N250,000, the release of Nnamdi Kanu, and the adoption of a new constitution.
Despite President Bola Tinubu’s appeal to end the protests, the organisers have vowed to continue, dismissing his speech as unconvincing.
