Naija News reports that many Nigerians have called on President Tinubu to address the nation following the massive #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria protest rocking the country.

Nigerians, since August 1st, have taken to the streets to protest hardship and hunger savaging the land.

The protest has seen clashes between protesters and security agents in many states especially in the North.

While some hoodlums have taken advantage to loot both government and private properties, security agents have shot at peaceful protesters and journalists.
