BREAKING: Organizers Announce Date for Resumption of Hunger Protests

August 10, 2024

Organizers of the nationwide hunger protests have announced that the demonstrations will resume on October 1.

POLITICS NIGERIA reports that nationwide protests were held from August 1st to 10th over the increased cost of living in the country.

Omoyele Sowore, the Action Alliance Congress (AAC) presidential candidate and a key organizer, made the announcement in an interview on News Central TV.

He revealed that ongoing meetings between organizers have been focused on strategizing the next phase of the protests.

“This protest will resume at the beginning of October and might even start earlier depending on situational variables.”

The organizers are demanding a reversal of fuel subsidies, an increase in the minimum wage to N250,000, the release of Nnamdi Kanu, and the adoption of a new constitution.

Despite President Bola Tinubu’s appeal to end the protests, the organizers have vowed to continue, dismissing his speech as unconvincing.

The Sunday schedule remains unchanged, but this is the old schedule for trips from Monday - Saturday (54 trips). It hasn't yet been updated on the website.

LASG INCREASES BLUE RAIL LINE TRIPS TO 72 PER DAY, INTRODUCES 25% FARE DISCOUNT FOR OFF-PEAK TRAVELS

The Lagos Rail Mass Transit (LRMT) Blue Line will from Monday, 12th August 2024 increase its number of trips from 54 to 72 per day. However, the current schedule for Sunday operations remained unchanged

The Managing Director of Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority (LAMATA), Engr. Mrs. Abimbola Akinajo announced this weekend that Blue Line train riders will now travel between Marina and Mile 2 in just about 18 minutes from the previous travel time of 25 minutes.

According to her, the implication is that there would be a train every 18 minutes both ways, thus allowing commuters to plan their trips.

Apart from this, Engr. Akinajo also announced a 25 per cent discount fare for commuters travelling within the off-peak period set at 10.00 am and 4.00 pm daily.

The new train schedule is potentially expected to reduce journey times, encourage more riders to use the train system during off-peak periods and reduce transport spending. The new timetables are available on the LAMATA website, stations and social media handles.

Recall that the Blue Rail Line commenced passenger operation on 4th September 2023 and has moved close to two million passengers.

Her 'Nigerian' identity too should be established. There's no Adetsina as a word in Igbo yet it is reported that her father is Igbo

None of that prevents her from being Nigerian. By law you are Nigerian if any of your grandparents is Nigerian.

She locked her comments section after many South Africans began criticising her and then she posted this.

I will always stand with South Africa, i just feel regardless of the opinions…
She was bullied and that’s what I don’t stand for.
