Hardship: Protest In Oyo Over High Cost Of Living

In Oyo State, South-West Nigeria, on Monday, protests broke out over high cost of living, food inflation and the current economic hardship in the country. 

Placard carrying young Protesters in the Mokola area of Ibadan, were seen in their droves singing solidarity songs to drive home their points.

Some of the placards have inscriptions such as ‘End food hike and inflation’, ‘The poor are starving’, ‘Tinubu, don’t forget your promises’, amongst others.

However, armed policemen were seen at the protest scene even as demonstrators held the peaceful rally against the economic hardship in the land occasioned by the removal of petrol subsidy and the unification of the foreign exchange windows.
