Amid a sizable number of security operatives, the protesters began by groaning to the federal government in regards to the current economic hardship in the country. Today, the living wage, which is 30,000 cannot even buy a buck of rice. Today, a buck of indomin, a packet of indomin is 18,000 in our own country. Where are we today? Where is the living wage? What we are demanding is for at least Nigerians to have so called, for Nigerians to have relief so that they will have a decent living. Nigerian students, ASU members are all Nigerians. So the hardship that are faced in the country are equally faced by ASU and also our students. The protesters subsequently marched to the Canada State Government House chanting solidarity songs in company of the police and other security operatives.

From May 29th, your excellence, 2023, we have seen a black stone, ensuring that farm lands are secured so that farmers can return to the land. We propose an immediate removal of the collection of levees, trees, fields, and tools from petty traders, aquederation by local and state governments. An immediate deployment of large number of CNG conversion kits to all sets of the federation to grant the extremely easier access to the conversion of their vehicles from PMS to CNG. Composition of a team of relevant stakeholders to monitor and supervise the all federal government's intervention funds in the interest of Nigerian people. The same arrangement is advocated at all levels to ensure that corporate interventions let the poor and the vulnerable. Reversal of the station of poverty increases in school peace in the nation. The Canada State Head of Civil Service received the letter and assured its delivery to the precedents. We have received a letter, we have heard the prompting of the letter, and the government will keep on allowing the new government to postpone it for actions and issues raised in the later.
