Organisers of the #EndBadGovernance protest have revealed plan to hold another nationwide protests on October 1, 2024.
The organisers argued that the Federal Government did not meet any of their demands in this month’s protests.
Thousands of youths took to the streets across the country to demonstrate against hunger, food scarcity, rising inflation, unemployment and insecurity.
However, the protest was marred by looting and arson in the north.
The protest was spearheaded by the Take-It-Back Movement and a raft of civil society organisations.
Before the marches kicked off, the Federal Government had appealed to youths to shelve the demonstrations.
According to TheCable, Damilare Adenola, Director of Mobilisation of the Take-It-Back movement, said on Tuesday, that the demands made during the August protests have been ignored by government.
Adenola said the only language government understands is protest.
“We call it Fearless in October — the follow up to the August protest,” he said.
“We decided to follow up the protest since Tinubu’s administration has proven adamant and is yet to accede to even one of our demands as stated in our charter of demands.
“We have come to the realisation that protest is the only language that many despotic African leaders understand.
“That is why we decided to mobilise for another nationwide demonstration scheduled for October 1 till infinitum.”
