I’ve Heard You Loud, Clear - Tinubu Tells #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria Protesters

Bola Tinubu, the President of Nigeria, has called for dialogue and an immediate end to the nationwide protests that have rocked the nation since Thursday.

Tinubu, who said his administration is ready to listen to and address the concerns of protesters, affirmed that he has heard their calls “loud and clear”.

“I hereby enjoin protesters and the organisers to suspend any further protest and create room for dialogue, which I have always acceded to at the slightest opportunity,” he affirmed in a nationwide broadcast on Sunday morning on the #EndBadGovernance protests.

He said the country requires all hands on deck and needs all citizens, regardless of age, party, tribe, religion or other divides, to work together in reshaping its common destiny.

The 10-day planned protest, which began on Thursday, primarily against the rising cost of living and hunger, deteriorated into violence, destruction of property and loss of lives in many parts of the nation.

At least 17 persons were reported dead in the “days of rage” protests.
