Protesters in Jos, the Plateau State capital, organised a church service on Sunday as part of the #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria protest, which began on Thursday.
The ongoing church service is being held at the Old Airport Roundabout, with a large crowd of protesters in attendance, including Christian and Muslim leaders as well as a former Minister of Sports, Solomon Dalung.
The protesters, brandishing Nigerian flags, blocked the Old Airport Roundabout, compelling motorists to seek alternative routes within the metropolis.
Some of those who spoke with our correspondent said the church service is significant because they believe that God still has the capacity to intervene in the affairs of Nigeria and turn things around for the good of the suffering citizens.
A protester, Philip Madaki, who said he arrived at the Old Airport Junction for the Sunday service around 7:30 am, said, “I have been participating in the protest since it began on Thursday, and today being Sunday, we are continuing with the protest with a church service.
“As the protest is ongoing, we believe that God Almighty has not abandoned the country and its citizens, and we know He has the power to turn the hearts of kings in whichever direction He wants.
“And we want Him to visit our leaders in the country, especially those in governance positions, and touch their hearts so that they will know that the citizens are really suffering because of bad governance and their harsh economic policies in the country and be able to do something to change the situation. That’s why we are adding the church service to the ongoing protests.”
