Notice of Planned Protest Over Fuel Price Increase in Nigeria

A coalition of civil society groups and concerned citizens has announced plans for a peaceful protest scheduled for 12th March 2026 across five states in Nigeria. The demonstration is being organized in response to the recent increase in fuel prices, which many Nigerians say has contributed to rising transportation costs and general economic hardship.

According to the organizers, the protest will take place simultaneously in Lagos, Abuja, Abia State, Ekiti State, and Kano State. The aim of the demonstration is to peacefully express citizens’ concerns about the rising cost of fuel and its impact on daily life.

Organizers have emphasized that the protest is intended to be lawful, orderly, and peaceful, encouraging participants to conduct themselves responsibly and respect public safety. They also stated that the protest is meant to open dialogue with government authorities on ways to address the economic challenges facing many Nigerians.

In Lagos and Abuja, large numbers of participants are expected to gather at designated public locations where speeches and presentations will be made. Community groups in Abia State, Ekiti State, and Kano State have also confirmed their readiness to join the nationwide action.

Security agencies have advised organizers and participants to follow all regulations guiding public gatherings to ensure that the event proceeds without disruption. Authorities have also reassured residents that measures will be in place to maintain peace and order throughout the demonstrations.

Organizers expressed hope that the protest will help draw attention to the economic concerns of citizens while encouraging constructive engagement between the government and the public toward sustainable solutions.

More information about the protest schedule and gathering points is expected to be communicated by the organizers ahead of the planned date. 📰🇳🇬✊

This grammar na waooooo

The police should do what with them what they wish. Bunch of miscreants. Jobless political tools.

Is it only Nigeria that is affected?

Expect low turnouts if at all people join the protest. These pocketed CSOs doing the bidding of the Obi camp have failed thus far to mobilize the people against the government of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

You want the police to do to them what the police did to Tinubu, Oyedepo, Fashola and co during their occupy Nigeria protest?

Yes, a lot of people were tear gassed then, a lot of people should be teared gassed now. Every treatment meted out in 2012 should be repeated in 2026.

Stop this show of idiocy and ignorance. Our downstream sector is now fully deregulated.
