As Nigerians celebrated 25 years of unbroken democratic rule on Wednesday, Civil Society Organisations under the aegis of Osun Civil Societies Coalition (OCSC) and social activists took to the streets in Osogbo, Osun State capital, to protest against hardship occasioned by the Federal Government’s economic policies.
They charged President Bola Tinubu to address prevailing hunger, hardship, insecurity and other challenges plaguing the nation.
They observed that 31 years after the symbol of June 12, the late MKO Abiola paid the supreme price for the enthronement of civil rule; his manifesto on providing basic amenities and prosperity for the citizenry remains elusive.
