The #EndBadGovernance protests have erupted across Nigeria, with citizens expressing frustration over the country’s economic situation.
In Abuja, protesters gathered at the Moshood Abiola National Stadium, defying a court order that sought to restrain their activities.
Among the demonstrators was Emmanuel Larry, an Abuja resident, who shared his reasons for participating.
“Hunger forced me to come out this morning,” Larry said, reflecting a widespread sentiment of economic hardship. He emphasized that the government’s actions must address the grievances of the people.
Contrary to rumors suggesting that the protests might not materialize, Larry confirmed that the demonstrations are planned to continue from August 1 to August 10.
The protests mark a significant moment in the country’s ongoing debate over governance and economic policy, with many calling for urgent reforms to alleviate the suffering of the populace.
Authorities have not yet responded to the protests, but the demonstrations are expected to continue, drawing attention to the pressing issues facing Nigeria today.
