Human Rights activist Omoyele Sowore says the EndBadGovernance protest will continue on Monday, despite facing violence and repression in some northern states.
The nationwide protest, which began last Thursday, aims to address the widespread hardship and suffering in Nigeria.
Sowore directed protesters to gather at Ojota before marching to the Lagos State Secretariat, Alausa, on Monday.
In a post on X, he listed various locations across Lagos where protesters would convene, including Lekki Toll Gate, Alausa Secretariat, former Lagos Toll Gate, Ketu, LASU Gate, Abule Egba, FESTAC Town, and others.
Sowore wrote: “Please be aware that the #EndBadGovernancelnNigeria action will resume fully tomorrow (Monday) across Nigeria and in several parts of Lagos-Lekki Toll Gate, Alausa Secretariat, former Lagos Toll Gate, Ketu, LASU Gate, Abule Egba, FESTAC Town, and several other centres.
“However, all groups are advised to march towards Ojota before processions to the Lagos State Secretariat, Alausa.”
As the protest resumes, Nigerians are calling on President Bola Tinubu to address the nation and meet the demands of the protesters.
The 10-day protest has already witnessed clashes between security operatives and protesters in Lagos, Abuja, Kano, and Kaduna, with tear gas canisters used to disperse crowds.
Sowore’s leadership and the determination of the protesters signal a growing demand for change in Nigeria, as citizens seek an end to bad governance and improved living conditions.
