#EndBadGovernance: FG gets 17-point ultimatum as organizers gear up for October protests
The #EndBadGovernance movement has issued a 17-point ultimatum to the Federal Government, demanding immediate actions including the release of detained protesters, asset unfreezing, and compensation for hardships. They also seek major reforms, such as replacing the 1999 Constitution, restructuring Nigeria, increasing workers' minimum wage, and improving education. In a bold move ahead of their October 1 protests, #EndBadGovernance organizers have outlined a 17-point ultimatum targeting the Federal Government. Their demands range from the release of detained protesters to sweeping reforms in the Constitution and increased investment in education, aiming to address human rights abuses and economic disparities in Nigeria.

Organizers of the #EndBadGovernance protests have presented a 17-point ultimatum to the Federal Government in anticipation of their planned demonstrations on October 1, 2024.
Their demands include the immediate and unconditional release of detained protesters, the unfreezing of their assets, and compensation for the suffering endured during peaceful demonstrations.
The movement also calls for the removal and prosecution of government officials implicated in the suppression of protests and human rights violations.
Omoyele Sowore, one of the leading organizers, shared a list on Tuesday, which includes the scrapping of the 1999 Constitution, to be replaced by a new constitution created by the people, and the restructuring of Nigeria to better reflect its diversity.
Among other demands are: “Ensure Nigerian workers receive a minimum wage of no less than N250,000 monthly.
“Significantly increase investment in education and provide Nigerian students with grants instead of loans. Actively pursue free and compulsory education for all children across Nigeria.
“Release Mazi Nnamdi Kanu unconditionally and demilitarize the South-East. All #ENDSARS and political detainees must also be released and compensated,” among other demands.
