Despite President Bola Tinubu’s appeal for dialogue, protesters continued their nationwide demonstrations against hardship and hunger for the fourth consecutive day on Monday, August 5.
The demonstrators, advocating for improved economic conditions and governance, took to the streets across the country, disregarding the president’s request to halt the protests.
Moreover, the organizers of the “End Bad Governance in Nigeria” movement have scheduled an international press conference for August 5 at Gani Fawehinmi Freedom Park in Ojota, Lagos State.
Omoyele Sowore, who has run for president twice and is viewed as a leading figure in the protests, shared the latest news on his verified X account on Monday.
During a broadcast on Sunday, President Tinubu urged young people to pursue dialogue and reassured them that his administration is committed to upholding good governance, despite the current socio-economic difficulties in the country.
