AN ASSESSMENT OF THE EFFECT OF ENDBADGOVERNANCE PROTEST ON NIGERIA ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES
Chapter One: Introduction
1.1 Background of the Study
The Endbadgovernance protest, which erupted in Nigeria in July 2024, emerged as a significant response to a series of economic grievances, including rising fuel prices, inflation, and perceived government mismanagement. The protest, driven by widespread public dissatisfaction with economic conditions and governance, aimed to challenge the government's policies and demand reforms. Given the scale and intensity of the protest, it is crucial to assess its impact on Nigeria's economic activities. Nigeria's economy has faced numerous challenges, including high inflation, unemployment, and economic mismanagement. The removal of fuel subsidies, which led to a sharp increase in fuel prices, was a catalyst for the Endbadgovernance protest. The protestors' demands for economic reforms and better governance were seen as a reaction to these economic pressures.
Protests of this scale can have significant economic implications. They can disrupt daily economic activities, impact business operations, and affect investor confidence. Understanding how the Endbadgovernance protest influenced economic activities involves examining both immediate disruptions and longer-term effects on the Nigerian economy. This study focuses on assessing the effect of the Endbadgovernance protest on various aspects of Nigeria's economic activities. This includes evaluating disruptions to business operations, changes in market dynamics, impacts on investor confidence, and overall economic performance during and after the protest.
1.2 Statement of the Problem
The Endbadgovernance protest significantly impacted Nigeria's economic landscape, but there is a need for a comprehensive assessment of how these impacts unfolded. The problem addressed by this study is the lack of detailed analysis regarding the specific effects of the protest on Nigeria's economic activities. This includes understanding the scope of economic disruptions, changes in business operations, and shifts in economic indicators during the protest period.
The study aims to fill this gap by providing a detailed analysis of the protest's effects on various economic aspects and offering insights into the broader implications for Nigeria's economy.

The findings are relevant for policymakers, business leaders, and economists interested in understanding the broader economic implications of political protests. They also provide insights into how governments and businesses can better prepare for and mitigate the economic impacts of similar protests in the future.
