Another Nationwide Protest Date Announced.
Another nationwide protest has been scheduled on October 1st in continuance for the call to the rising hardship and bad governance under President Bola Tinubu’s government.
The anticipated protests are tagged #FearlessInOctober.
In a statement released on Tuesday, the Take-It-Back Movement, a pro-democracy group, has called on citizens to unite and fight against the economic oppression and corruption which the group said is symbolized by Tinubu’s policies.
The movement described Tinubu’s administration as a symbol of hardship and corruption, criticizing the skyrocketing cost of living in Nigeria.
The statement read:
“Nigerians, brace yourselves: General Bola Ahmed Tinubu, a symbol of hardship and corruption, has taken the helm. Mark your calendars for October 1 and join the #FearlessInOctober #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria2.0 protest to fight for our nation’s future and end the oppressive rule.”
The protest comes as Nigerians struggle with unprecedented fuel price hikes following the removal of petrol subsidies in May 2023.
Petrol prices have more than tripled, worsening the economic challenges faced by citizens who rely heavily on fuel for transportation and electricity generation.
Recall that Nigerians between 1 August to 10 August 2024, took to the streets in protest of the rising cost of living in the country.
