    A former presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has expressed his deepest condolences to the families of those who lost their lives during the recent #EndBadGovernance protests.

    In a statement released on X.com on Sunday, Obi mourned the loss of lives, including security personnel, who died during the demonstrations.

    He wrote, “With the #EndBadGovernance protests officially concluded yesterday, I want to once again express my deepest condolences to all who have lost their lives, including the security personnel, during these protests.

    “These individuals gave their lives while advocating for better governance in our nation. I extend my heartfelt sympathies to all the families who have suffered losses in this struggle. We all share in your grief as we work together for the betterment of our country.”

    He also wished a speedy recovery to those injured during the protests and assured them that their sacrifices would not be forgotten.

    “May we all find the strength to endure this irreplaceable loss. To those who are wounded and recovering in hospitals and at home, know that our thoughts and prayers are with you for a swift recovery. Your sacrifices for our nation’s cause are deeply appreciated.”

    The former presidential candidate urged leaders to heed the cries of the people and address their legitimate demands promptly.

    “I also want to take this moment to urge all leaders to reflect on the cries of the suffering people and address their legitimate demands. It is crucial for us, the leaders, to urgently address the issues that sparked and fuelled these protests.”

    He emphasised the need for urgent action to tackle pressing issues such as insecurity, corruption, hardship, and poverty, which fuelled the protests.

    “Addressing insecurity, fighting corruption, alleviating hardship, and combating poverty are urgent matters that require immediate attention. I call on all leaders to take decisive action to resolve these critical issues.

    “May the deceased rest in peace, and may the injured recover fully and swiftly. A New Nigeria remains possible.”

    Obi’s statement comes as the #EndBadGovernance protests officially came to a close yesterday. The protests, which began last week, saw thousands of Nigerians take to the streets to demand better governance and an end to corruption.
