Benin City Protesters Hit the Streets Demanding Change
Thousands of demonstrators have taken to the streets of Benin City in a powerful display of public dissent against perceived governmental failures.
The protest, organized under the banner of the “EndBadGovernance” movement, has seen crowds chanting slogans such as “Tinubu Ole,” a term expressing frustration and accusing President Bola Tinubu of corruption and mismanagement.
The demonstration began in the early hours of the morning, with protesters gathering at key locations throughout the city.
They carried banners and placards highlighting issues such as economic hardship, poor infrastructure, and lack of transparency in government dealings.
The atmosphere was charged with a sense of urgency, as citizens voiced their demand for substantial reforms and accountability from their leaders.
The protest comes amid growing public discontent with the current administration, reflecting broader national concerns over governance and economic challenges.
As the situation develops, observers and commentators are closely watching to see how the government will address the grievances raised by the protesters and whether this demonstration will spark similar actions in other parts of the country.
An update has been shared on the burnt building at Balogun Market on Lagos Island, as it was revealed that a man was rescued 11 days after the building caught fire.
According to reports, the man was found alive on January 6, 2026, after being discovered under the rubble of the collapsed structure.
The survivor has since been taken for proper medical care, while further details are yet to be released.
Meanwhile, passersby and market traders have expressed concern, fearing that more people may still be trapped alive inside the building.
It has been reported that Anthony Joshua has officially been discharged from the hospital following the terrible car crash that claimed the lives of his two closest friends and supporters.
The boxing star was deemed stable enough to go home after the accident. After his discharge, he visited the funeral to pay his respects and see the bodies of his two friends.
Many have expressed grief and offered their support to the boxing star, praying that he will be able to find peace, as grief will undoubtedly be one of the most painful challenges he will face in life.
It has been shared that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is calling on the federal government to suspend the tax law set to take effect on January 1, 2026.
This was revealed in a statement released by Ini Ememobong, National Publicity Secretary of the PDP. He stated that this new law shows how Nigerians and the masses will be affected, arguing that the government is prioritizing finance over security and other pressing matters.
“Rather than address these issues comprehensively, the Presidency has consciously minimized them and instead insisted that the commencement date must stand, despite the discrepancies,” the party said, adding that this “clearly shows where the priority of the government lies between Nigerians and money.”
