“This #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria protest will linger on. In times of crisis, a leader’s words can go a long way in calming nerves and inspiring hope. Unfortunately, the President’s silence has only added to the anxiety and frustration felt by many.

“The ongoing protests and demonstrations are a clear indication of the people’s desire for change and better governance.

“A presidential address could have been a crucial opportunity to acknowledge the grievances, offer reassurance, and outline concrete steps towards addressing the issues.

“The clock is ticking, and the nation waits with bated breath for a word from its leader. Will the President seize the moment and address the nation, or will the silence continue, fueling more uncertainty and unrest? Only time will tell.”

Nigerians took to the streets to begin the 10-day nationwide protest against Tinubu’s administration which has brought untold hardship on them.

Angry Nigerians used the protest as a chance to cry out over the level of hunger and hardship in the country which the current government brought with no viable solution coming from those in power. However, the protest has turned violent with some people killed in various states and many others injured. Yet, there are still more days to go as the demonstration is to take about 10 days.
