They are alleging that the president lacks the ability to tackle the economic crisis bedevilling the nation.
DAILY POST reports that Nigerians, particularly youths who are frustrated by the economic reality, have vowed to stage mass protests nationwide.
According to the flyers making the rounds, the protest has been scheduled for August 1 to 10.
Some X users who were campaigning for the protest threatened that if the protest is disrupted by security operatives, they would demand Tinubu’s immediate resignation.
