On 8 November, Socialist Party members and Nigeria Solidarity UK activists lobbied the Nigerian embassy in London to demand the dropping of charges against protesters in detention and on trial, particularly Adaramoye Michael Lenin and ten others, whose trial for treason commenced at the Federal High Court in Abuja the same day.
We, along with other campaigners, demand that the charges are dropped against all #EndBadGovernance protesters, who have faced violence, detention and prosecution for daring to protest against the anti-poor policies of the Tinubu government. A recent report said that, on present trends, the number of ‘food insecure’ Nigerians could increase from around 25 million now to over 33 million by the middle of 2025.
The Nigerian people and youth have the right to resist the anti-poor capitalist policies of the Tinubu regime.
