We the Nigerian people under umbrella of GOOD NIGERIAN MOVEMENT hereby wish to announce our collective intention to halt any form of protest within Nigeria and shift it to next 2 months of 1st October if the following conditions are not met by our government.
1. That Nigeria Government Must temporally remove all import duties on food and food items due to the present hunger in the land. Government must provide incentives for farmers in this planting rainy season and secure our forests to protect farmers from terrorists and preserve their crops by storage during harvest.
2. That Federal Government having removed fuel subsidy over a year MUST strictly start now to making crude oil available to our local refineries in naira as promised on 29th July 2024 at the Federal Executive Council meeting Abuja. We cannot allow International Oil Companies IOC and NNPC or anyone to keep us in perpetual importation of refined Petroleum products at high price while we keep exporting our raw crude. Our local refineries must work now.
3. That Nigeria Government at all levels MUST remove all the fuel queue at all the filling stations across the country by making the petroleum products available at reasonable price. This will further positively affect price of food and commodities in our markets to be reduced.
4. That Nigeria Government at all levels MUST begin payment of the approved 70,000 Naira minimum wage to workers across Nigeria and making sure it is enforced. Even though the minimum wage has low purchasing power due to high inflation rate now but we look forward to a better economy soon.
5. That Nigeria Government at all levels MUST begin full implemented of the laudable pronouncement of Local Government Autonomy by Supreme Court to allow for development to all local areas.
6. That all FIRS taxes and Electricity Bills have to be restructured and made conducive for business growth, manufacturing and production of local goods to avoid killing our local manufacturers.
7. That We the Good Nigerians and our leaders should imbibe the culture of live , used and buy Made in Nigeria Products so as to encourage our naira to become stable and grow our economy.
