Omoyele Sowore, the Action Alliance Congress (AAC) presidential candidate and a key organizer, made the announcement in an interview on News Central TV.
He revealed that ongoing meetings between organizers have been focused on strategizing the next phase of the protests.
“This protest will resume at the beginning of October and might even start earlier depending on situational variables.”
The organizers are demanding a reversal of fuel subsidies, an increase in the minimum wage to N250,000, the release of Nnamdi Kanu, and the adoption of a new constitution.
Despite President Bola Tinubu’s appeal to end the protests, the organizers have vowed to continue, dismissing his speech as unconvincing.
