Naija News looks at the top happenings making headlines on the front pages of Nigeria’s national newspapers today Monday, 30th September 2024.
The PUNCH:State commands of the Nigeria Police Force have deployed men in flashpoints as organisers of the October 1 protest insist on going ahead with the demonstration on Independence Day as planned, findings by The PUNCH have shown. If the protest holds, it will be the second time in two months that angry Nigerians would hit the streets in disapproval of the hardship in the country occasioned by the hike in petrol price and electricity tariff and the floating of the naira by President Bola Tinubu’s government.
Vanguard: Despite appeals by some stakeholders and the Federal Government calling for calm, organisers of the October 1 protests against hardship in the country have insisted on going ahead with tomorrow’s action.
The Nation: The Federal Government is looking forward to a huge reduction in reliance on petrol with about $175 million worth of investments in Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) vehicles. At least 700 CNG-powered buses are expected. Thousands of conversion kits and centres are underway.
Daily Trust: The residents of Jika da Kolo village of Yadin Kidandan in Giwa Local Government Area of Kaduna State and the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) yesterday differed on the killing of scores of persons in an airstrike in the area on Friday. While residents alleged that the victims included 23 worshippers at a mosque and others at a market in the area, the NAF claimed that the airstrike was only “rained” on the logistics base of terrorists.
