Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The #Endbadgovernance Movement has announced plan to stage nationwide protests on June 12.<\/p>\n

One of the leaders of the movement, Comrade Hassan Soweto, made the announcement at a press conference on Thursday in Lagos.<\/p>\n

According to him, the protest is aimed at expressing dissatisfaction with the current administration over its economic reforms which have triggered hardship.<\/p>\n

Soweto emphasized that the removal of subsidy and unification of naira have adversely affected the economy, pushing many citizens into hardship.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnother result of Tinubu\u2019s two-year presidency is the asphyxiation of the national economy due to the adverse effect of the removal of oil subsidy and naira devaluation.<\/p>\n

\u201cWithout equivocation, we have to say that the past two years of President Tinubu\u2019s government has been nothing short of a disaster for the mass of Nigerian people. The anti-poor and neo-liberal reforms of the regime have led to destruction of livelihoods and the economy on a scale previously unimagined,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Soweto expressed worries over what he called abuse of democracy, describing the Tinubu led government as dictatorship.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have to say that Nigerians are living more or less like enslaved citizens. All the constitutionally-guaranteed rights and freedoms that in the past inspired struggles against military rule and for democracy have now been completely taken away by the Tinubu administration. The civic space has shrunk to the point that Nigerians can no longer breathe,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He also called on the Inspector General of Police IGP, Kayode Egbetokun, and the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Olohundare Moshood Jimoh, to cooperate with the protesters.<\/p>\n
