Youths in Zamfara Protest Against Economic Hardship, Demand Better Governance

A large group of youths has gathered on the main road in Zamfara’s capital city, preparing to march toward the Government House. The protest, which started today and is expected to continue until August 10, is a response to the worsening economic conditions in the country.

Nigerians have taken to the streets to voice their frustrations over the rising cost of living, widespread hunger, high unemployment rates, and limited access to quality education. These issues have become a focal point of the protest, with participants demanding urgent action from the government.

By 8 a.m., protesters had assembled in significant numbers, chanting solidarity songs and displaying placards that called for improved governance. The demonstration is unfolding under tight security, with police, the LNSC, and civil defense personnel maintaining a visible presence.
