He told Kano residents that it is the best opportunity for them to stand against agelong bad governance in Nigeria, urging them not to be intimidated by what the ruling class may have said about the protest.
The mobilization of Nigerians for the upcoming nationwide protest, titled 'EndBadGovernance,' is increasingly reaching grassroots communities in Kano State.
In a video seen online, a concerned youth is seen using a sound amplifier to enlighten people and traders inside the popular Gaya market in Kano State on the need for them to massively join the planned nationwide protest.
He told Kano residents that it is the best opportunity for them to stand against agelong bad governance in Nigeria, urging them not to be intimidated by what the ruling class may have said about the protest.
He said, “This is your opportunity. It is remaining four days until the day of protest; come out and protest. Men and women, children and adults, boys and girls come out and protest. This is your opportunity.
“Where are the people they kidnapped or killed their relatives? This is your opportunity to protest. Come out and protest in order to remove bad governance. Come out and protest.”
SaharaReporters previously reported that thousands of Nigerians have begun mobilising for a nationwide public protest, dubbed 'EndBadGovernance', to demand change.
This protest aims to express their displeasure over the hardship under President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
SaharaReporters also reported that the organisers of the planned nationwide protest had written to the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, seeking that Eagle Square be made available for the peaceful demonstration between August 1 and 10, 2024.
In a letter signed by Damilare Adenola, Director of Mobilisation for the Take It Back Movement (TIB) in Abuja, the protesters demanded unrestricted access to the venue 24/7 throughout the protest, and possibly even after it concludes.
Meanwhile, the Nigerian Defence Headquarters had claimed that some miscreants were plotting to attack religious houses, shops and business centres during the planned nationwide protests.
