Nigerians protesting against bad governance and current economic hardships have publicly displayed an empty coffin with the picture of President Bola Tinubu….Click Here To Continue Reading>>

In a viral photograph seen by online, the protesters were seen carrying the coffin on their heads to portray a total rejection of Tinubu’s government due to the bad policies he had imposed on them.

The third day in a row, a massive gathering of Lagos State residents and the Take-It-Back Movement converged in Ojota, Lagos State, to continue the peaceful protest.

Under the banner of #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria, the protesters remain united in their pursuit of transformative change and accountability. 

With slogans and placards, the demonstrators have maintained a serene and orderly atmosphere, vocally expressing their demands for enhanced governance and a more promising future for Nigeria. 

The “coffin carrying” incident was similar to what was done to former President, Goodluck Jonathan, in 2012 in a nationwide protest against the proposed removal of fuel subsidy, in which the current All Progressives Congress (APC) leaders actively participated.

Speaking on the incident, Jonathan had said pictures of his mock coffin displayed in the media during the anti-fuel subsidy removal protests of 2012 traumatised his aged mother who had lost eight children.

Jonathan had said this in his recently published book titled, My Transition Hours.

The former President said, “The protests continued unabated. In all of these, one woman I pitied most was my aged mother who was with me in the State House.

“Every day, she watched on television protesters carrying a casket with my picture on it and having the inscription ‘Rest In Peace.’

“I could imagine her trauma. This is a woman who had 10 live births with only my elder sister and I surviving.”
