Organisers of the just concluded #EndBadGovernanceinNigeria protest held across the country from August 1 to 10, 2024, are planning to stage another one in October tagged ‘Fearless in October Protest’.
Director of Mobilisation of the Take It Back Movement, Damilare Adenola, confirmed the planned protests.
According to Adenola, the protesters’ demands would remain the same unless there were other issues, requiring them to add more.
“Yes. It is called the ‘Fearless in October Protest’. Our charter of demands stands as same. If at all, we will add more as the country decays more,” Adenola said.
When asked whether the protesters would heed court orders from state governments requiring them to hold demonstrations at designated points, Adenola said they we won’t comply.
On August 1, youths across the country staged the #EndBadGovernance protests including Abuja despite efforts by government officials discouraging it from going ahead.
Prior to the demonstrations, the protesters 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 also to release and compensate all EndSARS and political detainees.
