What's your view on the proposed August 1st protest?

[Marvelockg]

Sadly, we've gotten to the stage in our nation where without protest and forceful measures, it's almost impossible to hold our leaders accountable for the responsibility they signed up to. SARS officers killed and molested a lot of Nigerians and we made lots of pleas and yet saw no result until the "END SARS" protest, which led to a lot of killing and destruction of properties before we eventually saw a little reformation in the brutality from our uniform men.

The economic situation is getting worse by the day and maybe some of us aren't feeling it that much because we are fortunate to find ourselves in the digital sector and fortunate enough to have a good-paying job that's not influenced to a large extent by the faulty policies and negligence of our government and politicians who don't have a single plan on ground as to how to bring us out of this mess.

The proposed protest is a journey I wouldn't wish it happens considering the effect of last protest and knowing that after a lot of people have lost thier lives for what they believe was right, we're still in the same or a worse of situation and case of police brutality hasn't become a thing of the past.

Key on the demands for the June 1st protest are;
1.  Declare a state of emergency on inflation.
2. Reformation of the ministry of agriculture
3. Reduction in the salary of sanitors and other executive by 50%
4. End subsidy scam
5. Demand for provision of subsidized loans for SMEs
6. Creation of job opportunities
7. Investing in the educational sector and lots of others.

At the moment, it's still uncertain what the protest will bring to the table and how it will affect the peace and the welfare of people in our nation. A lot of youths on the street are already angry and if care is not taken, what might start as a little protest might end up growing into something big.

What's your take on this? Is the proposed protest worth or or is thier a better alternative to get our leaders to become responsible for the economic situation we're currently into?

This protest is needed and every youths body should join, we must  not keep quite and watch our nation been destroyed by old men that lacks ideas to pilot the affairs. We must take the destiny of our children into our hands, its too much, a country without blueprint we just exit no progress nothing, our past are better than today, no innovation, no good policy, we just exit like tree.

I just believe the leaders of this protest should be men of integrity. Not people the government will buy over fast, because the FG are working on  to call them for a meeting before the protest,  let them stand on their ground, and let them add removal of excess taxation on the demand. Companies are not long giving employment because of too much tax by the FG. If they reduce the tax it will be good for investors. I'm ready for the protest.
