- Currently, there are movements calling for protests against the government in Nigeria.
- In preparation for any possible developments, we urge all Japanese residents to avoid areas where demonstrations or gatherings are taking place.
- According to reports, information calling for protests against the government under the titles “National Day of Survival” and “Day of Survival” has been spreading, with a scheduled date of October 1. There are also indications that this could become a nationwide protest. While it has been announced that the protests will begin at 7:30 a.m. in Ikeja, Lagos State, similar actions are expected to take place in Borno, Yobe, Rivers, and Kwara States.
The organizers have stated that none of the demands made during the August 1 protests, titled “End Bad Governance in Nigeria,” have been met. They are opposing recent increases in fuel prices, electricity rates, and food prices. - While the protests are scheduled to begin on October 1, there is a possibility that they could start earlier, based on the events in August.
- There are concerns that the protests may lead to violence, rioting, or vandalism. In response, security forces may implement roadblocks, checkpoints, and other measures to prevent such illegal activities across the country. There is also a risk of strikes, which could disrupt transportation services and logistics.
- We urge Japanese residents to:
- Stay updated on the latest information
- Avoid areas where demonstrations or gatherings are taking place
