 Dolly Parton returns to public eye to celebrate opening day at Dollywood     Dolly Parton made her first public appearance in months to celebrate the opening day of Dollywood in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, on Friday. The country music icon reflected on the past year, a year after the death of her husband of nearly 60 years, Carl Dean, saying she is “doing good” and has been working to rebuild herself spiritually, emotionally, and physically after grieving and dealing with health issues that kept her from touring.

 #EndBadGovernance Protest Organisers In Abuja Write FCT Minister Wike To Release Eagle Square For Planned Demonstration


Organisers of the planned nationwide #DaysOfRage and #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria protest have written the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, requesting the release of Eagle Square between August 1 and 10, 2024, for the peaceful demonstration.


In a letter signed by Damilare Adenola, Director of Mobilisation for the Take It Back Movement (TIB) in Abuja, the protesters demanded unrestricted access to the venue 24/7 throughout the duration of the protest, and possibly even after it concludes.


The letter read, “I write you as the Director of Mobilization, Take it Back Movement (TIB) to your office to grant us access to the Eagles Square between August 1st and 10th, 2024, for our #DaysOfRage, #EndBadGovernance protest.


“This request entails using this national asset-day and night-for the duration of the historic protest.


“Also, note that the protest may be prolonged beyond ten days as we embark on the protracted crisis occasioned by the ruling party.


“Further, your office must also ensure the provision of a 24-hour power supply, toilet facilities, water, and security for the convenience of Nigerian citizens who will be camped out at Eagle Square.


“In short, we ask that the protesters are accorded the courtesy accorded to foreign and local official dignitaries who have frequently used the space.


“In addition, we request that the outer wire mesh barrier facing the Aso Rock Villa be removed in the meantime, as protesters may decide to visit the Presidential Villa during the protest.


“It is our sincere hope that this request will be granted expeditiously.”


Wike had asked residents of the FCT not to protest on August 1 but rather troop out for celebration.


The minister while briefing journalists after the FCT Security Council meeting in Abuja on Thursday, said this in reference to the planned #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria protest.


He said that rather than the scheduled protest, traditional rulers in the territory would receive their certificate of recognition from the Area Council on August 1.


Wike therefore said FCT would not be available for protesters on August 1 as the date had been set aside for the Chairmen of the six Area Councils of the FCT to give out certificates of recognition to their traditional rulers.
