As the nationwide #EndBadGovernance protest enters day two, residents of Osun State, again stormed the streets of Osogbo to press home their demands from the government.
The protesters insisted that they would not rest on their oars until when their demands are met by the government and they will continue to be on the streets everyday.
They said they came out en masses yesterday, and the government heard their demands, but turned deaf ears.
Some youth of the town had on Thursday stormed streets in protest against hunger and hardship in the country.
The protesters, under the aegis of Coalition of Concerned Nigerian Citizens, marched through major streets of the capital city.
Apart from Osogbo, the state capital, the protest was also held in Ile-Ife, the host community of the Obafemi Awolowo University.
While chanting solidarity songs to drive home their messages, the protesters, mostly youths, carried banners bearing varying inscriptions.
They called on the Federal Government to address myriads of challenges confronting the nation.
Some of the inscriptions on their banners and placards read, “We want food price control with immediate effect,” “Revert fuel price to Pre-May 29, 2023 price,” “Local Government is the key to national and economic development,” among others.
As usual , they converged at Freedom Park and moved to Olaiya as security operatives accompanied them, while ensuring there is no break down of law and order.
Nigerians have been demanding for a better administration from the Bola Tinubu-led federal government and state governments across the federation.
