Omoyele Sowore, presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC) in the 2023 election, says the #EndBadGovernance protest will continue on Monday.
Nigerians have been protesting against economic hardship and spiralling inflation since August 1.
The demonstrations have turned violent in some northern states, with security operatives dispersing protesters with tear gas canisters in Lagos, Abuja, Kano and Kaduna.
Sowore, in a post on X, asked the protesters to match towards Ojota before proceeding to Alausa, the Lagos state secretariat.
“Please be aware that the #EndBadGovernancelnNigeria action will resume fully tomorrow across Nigeria and in several parts of Lagos-Lekki Toll Gate, Alausa Secretariat, former Lagos Toll Gate, Ketu, LASU Gate, Abule Egba, FESTAC Town, and several other centres,” Sowore said.
“However, all groups are advised to march towards Ojota before processions to the Lagos State Secretariat, Alausa.”
However, on Sunday, President Bola Tinubu addressed Nigerians amid several demands by protesters.
Tinubu urged the protesters to suspend their demonstrations, adding that the efforts of his administration “will soon be visible and concrete for everyone to see, feel, and enjoy”.
