#EndBadGovernance: Police Flood Major Cities Ahead Of One-Million-Man Protest

A large number of police officers have been spotted at different locations in various states in the country following the upcoming one-million-man planned to happen today.

Recall that one of the organizers of the show Take It Back had noted that as a wrap of the planned ten-day protest, there would be a one-million-man man march to further tackle the economic issues in the county.

Part of the demands for the #EndBadGovernance protest include the reversal of subsidy on fuel, an increase in the minimum wage to N250,000, and an end to bad governance, among other issues.

The organizing groups also noted that they would take the last day – the one-million-man March more seriously as president Tinubu’s speech on Sunday was not convincing enough.

Reaffirming this in a statement, the National Coordinator of the Take It Back Movement, Sanyaolu Juwon said;

“The Take It Back Movement, along with other organisers and organisations, will lead a one-million-man protest in each of the 36 states of Nigeria and the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, on August 10.

“This event will mark a critical juncture in our nationwide #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria campaign, which began on August 1, 2024.

“It started as a planned 10-day protest but has evolved into a sustained and widespread movement, drawing participants from every corner of Nigeria and the Diaspora.”

Juwon also demanded the release of the protesters and organisers arrested by security agents.

He said,

“On the troubling matter of unlawful arrests, we unequivocally condemn the detention of Michael Adaramoye (Lenin), Babatunde Oluajo, and others who were arrested on August 5, and on previous and subsequent days. Their continued imprisonment by the DSS and the police is a gross violation of their rights. We demand their immediate release and call for an end to these unjust de and tentions.”
