Adebayo Shittu, Nigeria’s former communications minister, has labeled the upcoming #EndBadGovernance protests as a treasonous act. Scheduled to occur from August 1 to 10, these protests are aimed at criticizing President Bola Tinubu’s handling of the economy.
In an interview with News Central, Shittu argued that the protest's intent to challenge the government amounts to an attempt at regime change, which he deemed a serious offense punishable by death. Despite being cautioned by interviewers about the severity of his claim, Shittu remained steadfast, asserting that his interpretation reflects the true nature of the protests.
As economic hardship continues to escalate under Tinubu’s administration, with soaring food prices and increased living costs, Nigerians are organizing these demonstrations to express their dissatisfaction with the current government’s policies.
