Activist and Founder of Citizens Hub, Convenor BBOG, Aisha Yesufu, discusses #EndSars #BBOG protests and government response, youth mobilisation, Yesufu maintains “protests happen when the government does not listen”, describing the government as “uncaring, incompetent and has failed”, but lauds President Buhari for signing the Electoral Act.
She speaks of a “youth awakening” caused by #EndSars protests, more electoral youth inclusion and urges voters “not to forget the demand side of governance”, the citizens.
She argues against candidates funding their own campaigns as opposed to donor/citizen funding believing candidates don’t feel accountable to the people.
