According to Dalung, Nigerians are suffering and the situation has become unbearable.

Speaking to the large crowd, Dalung stated that the amended Nigerian Constitution allows them the right to stage peaceful protests. He urged the security agencies not to intimidate the protesters

Dalung served as Sports Minister under former President Muhammadu Buhari from 2015 to 2019.

He appealed to President Bola Tinubu’s government to address some of the crises affecting the citizens.

Taking to his X handle, Dalung wrote, "On my way to the nationwide protest against hunger, poverty, insecurity, injustice, and impunity in Nigeria."
