Protesters in Osogbo, the capital of Osun State, on Sunday, August 4, held a church service at a popular junction as part of their ongoing demonstration against hunger and hardship.
This followed a similar pattern of protests, where Muslim faithful held Jumat prayers at the Ola-Iya junction on Friday.
During the church service, the leadership of the protesters collected offerings from the Christian faithful to support their cause.
Comrade Emmanuel Olowu, Secretary of the Osun State Coalition of Civil Societies, delivered a sermon from Exodus 14, emphasising that leaders, including the president, governors, and lawmakers, are ordained by God to attend to the needs of Nigerians.
Following the sermon, a protest leader identified as Bishop encouraged attendees to make monetary offerings, marking the conclusion of the street church service.
He explained: “The reason for this offering is that this money will be used for logistics for this protest. You can drop your offering as we pass what we will use to collect the offering.
“We are continuing the protest tomorrow, don’t be wary, we are not backing down. The president has not addressed our demands.”
