In a startling turn of events, residents in Abuja catalyzed what social critic and human rights activist Aisha Yesufu dubbed as the onset of a revolution.
The catalyst? A truck laden with essential food items, becoming the unfortunate target of looting. This incident not only illuminated the harsh economic realities confronting many but also signified a watershed moment in the nation’s ongoing struggle against hunger and insecurity.
Aisha Yesufu, renowned for her vocal activism and unyielding dedication to social justice, took to her platform to articulate her perspective on the unfolding events. With poignant clarity, she depicted a society teetering on the brink, warning, “When they are done attacking trucks, they will start with warehouses and shops then estates and houses. The revolution has started.” Her words reverberated profoundly, echoing the mounting frustration simmering within the populace.
