*CSOs protest against economic hardship in Osun*

Says subsidy removal makes life difficult
Shina Abubakar, Osogbo

Coalition of Civil Society organisations in Osun state on Monday protested against the rising cost of living across the country.


The group lamented that the rise in the cost of living as a result of the removal of fuel subsidies has made living difficult for the masses due to the hard economic situation.


Addressing the masses at different points while moving through the town, the convener, Waheed Lawal called on the Federal Government to reverse the hike in fuel prices, saying the masses deserve decent living.

He condemned what he described as the commercialisation of education and the non-provision of palliatives to the masses amidst suffering.

“As Nigerians, God has blessed us with everything we need to live a dignified life but we have bad leaders who don’t care about us. Every human needs food, water, clothing, shelter, and sleep.

“The rising cost of living is gradually taking away our dignity; average Nigerians cannot afford to eat twice daily or fuel their vehicles again. The cost of food is high, and the cost of public education is getting higher, and job opportunity is declining everyday”, he said.

A leader of the group, Ayo Ologun, said the current economic hardship has further pushed many Nigerians to poverty, saying Nigeria is in multidimensional crisis.

His words, “The current economic hardship has pushed millions of Nigerians to poverty; the middle class has fallen; the rich are getting poor and the poor are getting poorer. Indeed, Nigeria is in a multidimensional crisis. There is no sense in any reform that strangulates the prosperity of the common people. Every reform must have a human face!

“There are millions of Nigerians without shelter. People have resulted to trekking far distance because of unaffordable transport fare; the rising inflation

The removal of fuel subsidy without a proper plan; and the failure of the Federal Government to provide palliative is a direct assault on the Nigerian people”.


The protesters, who converged at Ayetoro, moved through Igbonna, Olonkoro, Old-Garage, Oke-Fia, and Alekuwodo and terminate the procession at Olaiya under the bridge.

They also carried placards with inscriptions such as; #ThePoorAreNotBreathing, #CutTheCostOfGovernance, “We are poor, We are hungry”, “We can’t breathe! Our leaders don’t care”, etc.

MyExpression:
I am Igbo, I am OBIdient.

I think the strike is too early.
He just nominated his ministers for God's sake.

Give the man time, and give the court time to pronounce their judgement.

Don't act out the chaos predicted by these pastors.

Let the law prevail.

PS
Obi's team are arguing the wrong point.
Leave that 7point agenda.

The only illegality we need to prove is Voting Manipulations...at every level.
We should prove that more people truly voted for Peter Obi.

We all knew the other things against Tinubu, yet didn't challenge it in court before election...una wan put judges for wahala?!
Do the right thing at the right time without chaos.

I'll respond to this. What you advised ie. 'Prove that more people voted for him, and voting manipulation' is exactly what APC were hoping he would do. Thankfully, he didn't. I have seen many here claiming he came third, when anyone who was not in a coma and witnessed that election knows clearly that he either came first or second due to the bulk of his votes that were suppressed/stolen by the APC majorly in three states, Lagos, Rivers, Plateau. Now if we go by math, I can accept and adduce that he likely came second, cos even if they award him the rightful votes he had stolen from him, it still likely won't be up to the 2million gap APC gave the LP, majorly cos not only did APC steal some LP votes, they also padded theirs in their strongholds (the padding I can't fault much cos who won't pad in their strongholds). So that is why, they are arguing voting manipulation but not basing their argument SOLELY on those numbers. In short, what they are trying to do is to prove that he met the constitutional spread of 25% in 2/3.

E.g. in my polling unit the results changed, what was posted was different from what was counted when we left that night, we (progressive youths) only waited to count presidential, we didn't wait for the Senate and HOR cos it was starting to rain. The change was a reduction of 10votes for LP and an addition of 42 for the APC! We believe they added back the voided votes, cos there were a lot of voided votes for the APC, all those baba and mama 70, most of them didn't thumbprint correctly, and were rightly counted as void votes, but they added it back after we left, imagine that! You may say it isn't much, but replicate that in all PUs in Oyo and you see it is. I think what the lawyers are trying to achieve is a re-run, cos in law it isn't about what you know to be true but what you can prove. If he only based it on the numbers like you advised, he wouldn't have been able to prove it in ALL PUs across the country which is what would have been required of him by law. LP didn't have enough agents, so proving that will be impossible. So, the smart thing is to stick to the things they can prove.

1. VOTING manipulations in the places there was overwhelming proof to support the claim, esp the state's I mentioned earlier which they brought to court. So expect the numbers alloted to him to increase

2. Prove that they met the minimum 25% spread

3. Prove that the APC didn't meet the constitutional requirements of 25% in the FCT.

4. Prove that the APC candidate are not qualified due to all those legal hogwash like double nomination, drug case etc.

The end game is smart though, stick to what you can prove, and hopefully overwhelm them with enough facts that no matter their leanings they'll likely have to rule for a re-run. This is a long stretch as na naija we dey, but it was the only good shot they had. If they had just stuck to the numbers, the thing go don end since in the favor of the APC.


That said, to join to what you said, I think anyone still protesting for Nigeria is foolish. If the Good Lord, allowed what happened during that election to happen, then whatever will come out from the tribunal na im we suppose dey wait for. Whatever it is we take am as say e please God to allow am ni and face front, knowing we tried our best and did our part. I will never ever protest for the good of this country ever again. Whatever wants to happen to the country and its people let it happen. My own is to think of how to pilot my affairs somehow somehow, not a foolish protest that will yield nothing!

Pakute:
Touch any property in SW, u go die like fowl. I couldn't care less if you burn down southeast, Ogun punish peter obi.
