Some Nigerians in Ibadan, Oyo State, are currently protesting the high cost of living, food inflation and economic hardship under the President Bola Tinubu administration.
Recall that Nigerians have continued to face various degrees of economics hardships since President Tinubu announced the removal of petrol subsidy on May 29, 2023.
The protest which was staged in the Mokola area of Ibadan had some placard-carrying youths in their numbers chanting songs to drive home their points.
Some of the placards have inscriptions such as ‘No more Emilokan’, ‘End food hike and inflation’, ‘The poor is starving’, ‘Tinubu, don’t forget your promises’, amongst others.
