One of the organizers, Omoyele Sowore, released a list on Tuesday that seeks the scrapping of the 1999 Constitution, its replacement with a people-made constitution, and the restructuring of Nigeria to accommodate its diversity.
The #EndBadGovernance protest organizers have given the Federal Government a 17-point ultimatum in advance of their scheduled October 1, 2024, rallies.
Protesters’ assets should be unfrozen, their jailed status should be lifted, and they should be compensated for the anguish and suffering they had during nonviolent protests.
In addition, the campaign demands that government employees who are alleged to have suppressed protests and violated human rights be removed from office and prosecuted.
One of the organizers, Omoyele Sowore, released a list on Tuesday that seeks the scrapping of the 1999 Constitution, its replacement with a people-made constitution, and the restructuring of Nigeria to accommodate its diversity.
Other demands include: “Pay Nigerian workers a minimum wage of no less than N250,000 monthly.
“Invest heavily in education and provide Nigerian students with grants, not loans. Aggressively pursue free and compulsory education for children across Nigeria.
“Release Mazi Nnamdi Kanu unconditionally and demilitarize the South-East. All #ENDSARS and political detainees must also be released and compensated, among other demands.”
