Some protesters hit the streets of Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, on Tuesday, to protest the increase in the pump price of petrol and the hike of electricity tariff.

POLITICS NIGERIA gathered that the protesters, who comprised of students, workers, and civil society groups, were led by the Chairman, Joint Campus Committee of the National Association of Nigerian Students, Mayowa Opakunle.

The protesters gathered at the Awolowo Junction area of the state capital to express their displeasure, while they carried placards with different inscriptions and saing anti-government songs.

Speaking to reporters, Opakunle said that protesters are against the increment of the fuel price and the electricity tariff, noting that Nigerian are suffering due to the impact of COVID-19 on the economy.

He condemned the policies of the government of President Muhammadu Buhari, describing the government’s action as wicked and one that lacked sound judgment.

The protesters took off from Freedom Park, Osogbo, and moved through MDS road to Olaiya Junction, chanting anti-government songs.

Story.
After a 2hr protest,they would return back to their huts and empty stomachs and be cursing Buhari in their minds at night.
What is happening in Nigeria is the price of cowardice.
From the history of Nigeria,no people revolution has ever taken place and it's now even looking more unlikely one would ever take place.
It was only when a few aggrieved,hot headed military officers felt aggrieved that a change of government revolution took place.
Nigerians have been jazzed into suffering and keeping silent,even when they see death coming.

I'm surprised that was the only thing u noticed...bros I'm telling u right now that about 95percent of the youths in osun state have been employed and have started working....I took a ride through their villages, omo! See massive rural development and upgrade of utilities...Armed robbery and kidnap now is a thing of the past over there....I overheard someone say that before the end of next year, that osun state would have developed to become the next Dubai in Nigeria......same goes to other states within that region...They really have been enjoying the change they clamored for..!

Those protesting are ipob members grin

Yorubas voted Buhary because of Osinbajo and the few with herd mentality who follow Tinimbu as the saviour of SW.

Also the speaker of the house is Yoruba man.

No Yoruba man is suffering under Buhary.

This is fake news.

cheesyAnother sore loser, spotted.

Honestly, you guys are just incorrigible! You guys are still blaming yorubas for Buhari's re-election success as if the so-called "town fulani" aka Atikuthief, you were all solidly lionising, would have done any different.

Some yorubas (not all) only voted for Buhari simply because of the incompetence and kleptomania , that was the hallmark of your "kinsman" JohnDaft's tenure, who am sure if he is still around would have sold the country to the highest bidder. This was the same yidiot who told us "Stealing is not corruption".

Same way , we warned you myopic, greedy and covetous folks to let the northerners be, in 1960 but you claimed they were your brothers from another mother.............just to spite the progressive yorubas.
