The mass action is against the worsening insecurity, deepening hunger and the economic hardship facing millions of citizens under President Bola Tinubu's administration.
Foremost human rights lawyer, Femi Falana (SAN) and a coalition of civil society organisations, labour activists, youth groups, community associations, social movements and concerned Nigerians have declared June 12, Nigeria's Democracy Day, a day of nationwide protest.
The mass action is against the worsening insecurity, deepening hunger and the economic hardship facing millions of citizens under President Bola Tinubu's administration.
In a statement issued on Wednesday and signed by Falana and other prominent activists, labour leaders and civil society figures, the coalition accused the Nigerian Government of failing to protect lives and property while implementing economic policies that have pushed many Nigerians deeper into poverty.
The statement was signed by Falana, musician and activist Falz, activist Hassan Taiwo Soweto, and representatives of organisations, including the Committee for the Defence of Human Rights (CDHR), Youth Rights Campaign (YRC), the Joint Action Front, and several others.
