When will the hunger protest end?
The hunger protest, scheduled for August 1-10, has sparked concern across Nigeria due to its focus on economic hardship and food scarcity. While some support the protest as a necessary measure to push the government to act, others fear it could lead to violence and instability.
Despite court orders restricting the protest to designated areas, demonstrators have taken to the streets in Kano and the Federal Capital Territory, resulting in reported casualties, including one death and one injury in Kano.

Hunger protest: Why governors should be blamed
Henzodaily.ng earlier reported that Nigerian governors have been accused of being responsible for allowing the economic crisis in the country to lead to the planned nationwide hunger protest.
Barrister Oladotun Hassan said that the state allocations were multiplied by the federal government following the removal of the fuel subsidy, but the governors did not let it reflect on the people.
According to Hassan, if the governors had shared what was sent to them and followed President Bola Tinubu’s rules, Nigeria’s problems would have been half-solved, and there wouldn’t have been calls for the protest.
