FearlessInOctober: Lagos CP provides snacks, water for protesters

In a surprising turn of event, the Commissioner of Police in Lagos State, Olanrewaju Ishola provided water and snacks to Endbadgovernance protesters in the state on Tuesday.

DAILY POST reports that the protesters who are majorly youths had marched from Ikeja Under Bridge to Gani Fawehinmi Park, seeking improved economic situation.

The protest was organised by civil society organisations.

The protesters carried placards with different inscriptions calling for an end to hardship in the country.

One of the coordinators, Mr Omoyele Sowore, the Presidential Candidate of the African Action Congress in the 2023 elections, said that the economic situation in the country needed urgent attention.

He urged the Federal Government to take more steps to reduce the hardship.

“We are out to exercise our rights as Nigerians and draw attention to the hardship faced by citizens.

“We are appealing to the government to punish corrupt citizens and address the high cost of living in Nigeria,” he said.

Mr Hassan Soweto, another coordinator of the protest and member of the Youth Rights Campaign, urged the government to address hunger and hardship urgently.

Soweto urged that the protesters should not be seen as bad, claiming that they were acting in the general interest of Nigerians.

Ex-Eagles star, Kanu calls for proactive measures to curb heart diseases

A Nigerian football legend, Kanu Nwankwo has called on footballers to prioritize their health at all times.

He advised them to give prompt attention to symptoms of heart diseases.

Kanu gave this advice in Port Harcourt on Sunday during a walk to celebrate World Heart Day.

He stated that his organization, Kanu Heart Foundation uses the walk to sensitize, educate, and enlighten people about heart failure symptoms and solutions.

“We are using this walk to sensitize, educate, and enlighten people about the importance of taking care of their hearts.

“We have done this for over five years now. We started in Lagos, did one in Ghana, another one in Lagos, went to Abuja, did one there, came to Enugu, and did one.

“Last year was in Aba, Abia State, and this year is in Rivers State. Next year is going to be in another city.

“We are holding this year’s event in Rivers because it is one of the biggest cities in Nigeria, and we focus on areas where a large number of people will hear our message and spread it to others.

“The walk is inspired by the need to improve awareness of heart-related issues, which the Kanu Heart Foundation has been addressing for decades.

“The organization has so far performed 670 open-heart surgeries on different individuals across the globe, thus saving their lives.

“So, anything that has to do with the heart, the Kanu Heart Foundation always wants to be part of it. It is a good thing to celebrate what we are doing,” he said.
