Protest commences in Niger State
Despite pleas from the government, some youths have trooped to the streets of Niger State to protest the economic hardship in Nigeria.
DAILY POST gathered that the protesters stormed the streets on Monday, chanting anti-government songs.
They wielded placards such as ‘Enough is Enough’; ‘Stop Anti-Masses Policies’; ‘We Are Not Slaves In Our Country’; ‘Hardship Is Unbearable’, ‘Fuel Subsidy Must Be Back’, among others.
DAILY POST recalls that last week, Governor Mohammed Bago had wooed residents of Niger with welfare packages to prevent the protest.
He had announced a N20,000 wage allowance for state and local government civil servants, ordered the immediate release of 50,000 metric tonnes of assorted grains to be sold at subsidised rates to mitigate the current economic hardship.
