The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has revealed that they are aware of the individuals behind the #EndBadGovernance protests, which caused a series of mixed reactions across the nation in August.
Recall that from August 1 to 10, numerous Nigerians and various groups took to the streets in multiple cities to voice their discontent regarding the ongoing hardships faced in the country.
In a press conference held at the party’s headquarters in Abuja on Monday, the National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Debo Ologunagba, emphasized that hunger was the true instigator of the protests and called upon the federal government to address the issue of hunger rather than targeting the citizens.
Ologunagba’s remarks came in light of the recent arrest of Joe Ajearo, the President of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC).
The PDP Spokesman said: “There is a need for caution. There was a protest in this country; the government did not do anything. You arrest some people and say they are terrorists, and you charge them in court. You say some people were the sponsors of the protest.
“We know those who sponsored the protest. The sponsor is hungry. The President and his people should arrest hunger and there will be no problem. Let your policies that are draconian bring people to their knees. This is the season schools are resuming; we know what people are going through.”
