Residents protest hunger, insecurity in Ibadan

Hundreds of residents, on Monday, staged a peaceful protest in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, over insecurity, hunger and rising costs of living in the country.

They urged President Bola Tinubu to address economic hardship across the nation.

Displaying placards with various inscriptions such as “Tinubu must address insecurity”, “Hunger is killing us”, and “We are fed up” among others, the protesters, who are mostly youths, said they were fed up with the current situation, demanding solutions from the government.

They said food prices have also skyrocketed, making it difficult for many Nigerians to feed their families.

The protesters called on the government to do more to alleviate the suffering of the people and to improve the country’s economy.
