Hunger: Arewa Youth Mobilizes for Mass Protests

Share

The Arewa Citizens Watch for Good Governance (ACWGG), has commenced mobilisation of its members and other Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) in the country to protest against what it described as ”officially induced hunger and high cost of living in the country.

It warned that if nothing is done within the next 10 days starting from Monday, July 24, 2023, the government should not blame the people for their ventilation of their anger against hunger.

ACWGG therefore called on Federal and State governments to as a matter of urgency, quickly roll out palliatives to cushion the dying hunger of the common man that could not go to farm following the activities of bandits and cannot afford high prices of food items in the markets.

The group particularly called on Civil Society Organisations to join it in mobilising their members and other Nigerians to protest against what it described as “artificially induced hunger and high-cost living” in the country.

These were in a statement on Monday by the chairman of ACWGG, Alhaji Aliyu Sani, in which it expressed sadness and deep concern over millions of voiceless Nigerians that are unable to cope with the escalating energy prices and growing severe hunger in the country, adding that the difficult situation has led to an upsurge in cases of petty theft and high mortality particularly in northern Nigeria.

  1. It was a high level of insensitivity by the government to have implemented the subsidy removal policy without proper arrangement on how to ease the Sharp blade cut against the masses immediately.
    Why do we even need the subsidy removal?
    Why must it be now?
    What is the advantage of the subsidy removal to Nigerians when it was far better for the people than before?
