Two masquerades led a large crowd of youths in Omu-Aran, Irepodun Local Government Area of Kwara State, Nigeria in a protest against outrageous hike in electricity tariffs and the sudden reclassification of the community’s electricity supply from Band C to Band A.
The protesters, armed with placards and chanting war songs, gathered at Bareke Roundabout before moving through major streets of the town.
l
Placards bore messages such as “Omu-Aran Says No to Band A,” “Bring Us Back to Band C,” and “Omu-Aran Youths Have Spoken Loudly,” reflecting the community’s strong rejection of the new billing category.
