The Federal Government of Nigeria is ready to engage in dialogue with the leaders of the planned nationwide protests scheduled for August 1-10.
In preparation for the protests, which aim is to address the rising cost of living and harsh economic conditions in Nigeria, all federal ministers have been told to visit their respective states between Wednesday, July 24, and Thursday, August 1.
