BREAKING: Fresh Protests Against Hardship Under Tinubu’s Government Announced

Another nationwide protest pressing for an end to the rising hardship under President Bola Tinubu’s government has been announced for October 1.

The anticipated protests are dubbed #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.

  1. It is good to protest to deep push your concerns and worries, and I advise a stronger multi-dimensional approach be used to pinch it where it pricks the most: since I noticed that ever since Tinubu defiled all cries of pain by Nigerians and went ahead to purchase a near trillion naira presidential jet and a seaplane, he Tinubu has been making unprecedented international trips, Nigerians in diaspora should join the protests by protesting at the venues of his international trips or stopovers, so that the whole world should see-feel it and feel compassionate with the sorry state of Nigerians.
