Naija News looks at the top happenings making headlines on the front pages of Nigeria’s national newspapers today Wednesday, 2nd October 2024.
The PUNCH: The #FearlessInOctober protest recorded a low turnout in the Federal Capital Territory and states amid the heavy presence of security operatives. This was as the organisers of the protest, the Take It Back Movement, rejected the planned 30-day National Youth Confab, announced earlier on Tuesday by President Bola Tinubu. The group described the initiative as ‘’a jamboree” designed to reward the President’s supporters.
Vanguard: Some protesters against bad governance had a raw deal in the hands of the army, police, other security agents and even political thugs, yesterday, in Rivers, Kano and the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Abuja.
Daily Trust: Youths in Lagos and Ondo states took to the streets Tuesday to protest against the harsh economic conditions in Nigeria. The demonstration, under the banner of #FearlessInOctober, was organised to coincide with the 64th Independence celebrations.
