Nigerian Newspapers Daily Front Pages Review | Friday 9th August, 2024

Naija News looks at the top happenings making headlines on the front pages of Nigeria’s national newspapers today Friday 9th August 2024.

The PUNCH: As the #EndBadGovernance nationwide protest fizzles out, many Nigerians, especially in the north, will live with the wounds, scars and financial losses for a long time to come. The protests against economic hardship, which started August 1, continued even after President Bola Tinubu called for an end to the demonstrations that faced a crackdown from security forces, who reportedly shot at the protesters in various states in the northern part.

Vanguard: ANGRY reactions yesterday trailed the invasion of the headquarters of the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, by some security agents late Wednesday night. Although operatives of the Department of State Services, DSS, were said to have carried out the attack, the secret police were, however, quick to deny its involvement yesterday.

Daily Trust: There is a growing disquiet among critical stakeholders within the labour sector and members of the organised labour over the raid carried out on the headquarters of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) on Wednesday night. Security operatives suspected to be from the Department of State Services (DSS) at about 10pm on Wednesday raided NLC’s offices over allegations that the leadership of the organised labour sponsored the #EndBadGovernance protest.
