The “End Bad Government” peaceful protest is slated to occur from August 1 to August 10, with Nigerian citizens, particularly the youth, preparing to express their discontent across all 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
This widespread demonstration emerges in the face of escalating economic challenges and governmental attempts to stifle the movement.
