The Peoples Democratic Party, has revealed that they are aware of the individuals behind the #EndBadGovernance protests, which caused a series of mixed reactions across the nation in August.
Recall that from August 1 to 10, Nigerians and various groups took to the streets in multiple cities to express their displeasures over the ongoing hardship facing the country.
Addressing newsmen at the party’s headquarters in Abuja on Monday, Debo Ologunagba, PDP’s National Publicity Secretary, while noting that hunger was the sponsor of the protest, urged the federal government to arrest hunger and not Nigerians.
