Despite President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s call for an end to nationwide protests, scores of Youths gathered on Sunday morning around Gani Fawehinmi Park to continue their protest.

The #EndBadGovernance protesters were seen on Sunday morning chanting solidarity songs after President Bola Tinubu’s address to the nation.

President Tinubu, in a nationwide broadcast, had appealed to protesters to cease their activities and engage in dialogue, emphasizing the need for national unity and the cessation of violence and destruction.

He expressed deep sorrow over the loss of lives and the damage to properties in various states, urging citizens to work together for a brighter future.

However, the protesters said the President has not addressed core issues raised by them despite touching on efforts by his administration.

Policemen and other security agencies were still on the ground at the park.

The police barred the protesters from holding a procession beyond the designated ground at Gani Fawehinmi Park, Ojota.

The protesters complied without argument and returned to the designated point.

As of the time of filing this report, there are policemen than protesters in Ojota area of Lagos.

Some of the protesters’ demands include the restoration of petrol subsidies and the forex regime. They also want the government to address food shortages, unemployment, and the wasteful spending of those in power.

Other demands are a reduction of the President’s cabinet and general cost of governance, immediate reforms of the electoral umpire INEC and anti-graft agency EFCC with renewed vigour in the fight against corrupt politicians.

Tinubu has shown he cares about dialogue and unity, but some youths need to understand that change takes time. Protests are good, but constructive engagement is key. Let's work together to build the Nigeria we all want instead of just shouting demands. Unity is strength!

Justnation:
This government is indeed very very corrupt and stinking.

Shoyinka has finally nailed this government proving that they don't mean well for Nigeria

Salewa97:
Nigerian youths need to understand that progress takes time. Tinubu is focused on long-term solutions, not just immediate fixes. They should engage in dialogue rather than protests. After all, we all want a better Nigeria, so let’s support Jagaban in his vision for our future!
