“We Will Not Relent” – Sowore Vows to Protest Tinubu Government’s Policies on October 1st
Nigerian activist and former presidential candidate Omoyele Sowore has announced his participation in an October 1st protest against the hardships inflicted by the current administration.
In a tweet, Sowore highlighted issues such as unemployment, insecurity, hunger, and poverty, which he attributed to the Tinubu-led government.
Sowore expressed his firm belief in protests and revolts as legitimate tools for opposing anti-people policies.
He stated, “Protests or revolts are the only tools that a people have to voice their opposition to the anti-people policies of their government.
That right is enshrined in the gene everyone, and I have every intention to exercise that right on October 1st and beyond.”
Having spent five of the last six years in prison, detention, or confinement under treason charges from the previous administration, Sowore remains undeterred.
He said, “For those who wonder why I refuse to back down or cower in fear, given the threats to my freedom and my life – here is my reply: I committed myself to the cause of fighting for the emergence of a better Nigeria three decades ago. I remain committed to that ideal.”
Sowore reaffirmed his commitment to advocating for good governance and justice, stating that he will continue the struggle for the Nigerian people’s rights to a decent life.
He added, “As long as I have breath in my lungs, and as long as my fists can be raised – I will continue to fight for the right of the Nigerian people to a decent life.
I will continue to advocate for their rights to good governance and I will continue to demand justice for all.”
Sowore called on Nigerians to join the October 1st protest, emphasizing that the fight will continue until the government’s anti-people policies are addressed.
“We will not relent until our point-by-point demands are met,” he said, concluding with a rallying cry for justice and reform.
