The #EndBadGovernanceinNigeria protesters have stormed the residence of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister, Nyesom Wike, in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, to voice their discontent over the rising cost of living in the country.
The protest, captured in a viral video circulating today, shows a significant number of demonstrators gathered outside Wike’s residence. The protesters were seen chanting slogans and holding placards with various inscriptions, expressing their frustration and demanding immediate action to address the economic challenges facing Nigerians.
Some of the placards carried messages such as “End Bad Governance,” “Reduce the Cost of Living,” and “We Need Better Living Conditions.” The protesters’ chants echoed their demands for government accountability and better policies to alleviate the economic hardships faced by the populace.
Despite the peaceful nature of the protest, the residence of Minister Wike was under heavy security. Armed security personnel were stationed around the property, prepared to maintain order and prevent any potential escalation. The presence of the security forces underscored the tense atmosphere surrounding the protest.
This demonstration is part of a broader series of nationwide protests aimed at highlighting issues such as inflation, unemployment, and inadequate public services. The #EndBadGovernanceinNigeria movement continues to gain momentum as more citizens join in calling for substantial changes to improve their quality of life.
As the protest unfolded, local authorities monitored the situation closely, balancing the right to peaceful assembly with the need to ensure public safety. The demonstration at Wike’s residence is a clear indication of the growing public dissatisfaction and the urgent need for government intervention to address the rising cost of living in Nigeria.
