TakeItBack Movement Protests Economic Hardship, Insecurity Across Nigeria

TakeItBack Movement Protests Economic Hardship, Insecurity Across Nigeria TheTakeItBack Movement on Wednesday staged protests in Lagos, Abuja, and several other parts of Nigeria, calling attention to worsening economic hardship, rising inflation, insecurity, and what organisers described as increasing political repression under the administration of President Bola Tinubu. Protesters marched through major streets carrying placards and chanting slogans, urging the government to address the rising cost of living, unemployment, and insecurity affecting millions of Nigerians.

The movement said the demonstrations were aimed at demanding greater accountability, improved governance, and policies to ease the economic burden on citizens. Organisers also expressed concerns over alleged restrictions on civil liberties and the shrinking space for dissent. The protests took place under security surveillance, with law enforcement personnel deployed to maintain order in major cities.
