Since 1 August, tens of thousands of people have trooped out onto the streets across Nigeria in nationwide #EndBadGovernance protests against hardship and hunger. This phase of the protest movement is expected to last until 10 August. Demonstrations have been held in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, and in 29 of the 26 states of the federation. In all eight states where there were no protests on the streets, residents joined the nationwide protest by sitting at home, as was the case in Enugu.
