April 20, 2019 - The ninth protest under the slogan ODUPRISE will be held tonight at 19:00 on the platform in front of the Assembly in Podgorica, and the protest column will be sent to the Public Service Building this weekend.
The caravan who visited the cities around the country last weekend said that the number of dissatisfied citizens was much higher than the one who runs every Saturday on the capital city, "and that we are a huge majority in our country."
They say they will concentrate on the protest tonight "on one of the most vicious links of this system, which for 30 years, even since its war-haunt ventures, pollutes our public."
"The so-called Public Service that we renamed into the Shameful Service is a party newsletter that had ignored its citizens for more than a month, even when thousands were gathered in front of their building. For Shameful Service then the declarations of corrupt voice officials were much more important of its citizens who fund it, " said the ODUPRISE statement.
Organisers called on citizens to bring props "through which we will make the greatest noise that they will not be able to remain deaf."
"We remind them that we demand the resignation of their council and general manager. We remind them that it was presumed that former members of the Council and the former general director were unlawfully removed or cancelled decisions on their resignation. On what basis, do we ask then, Božidar Šundić and the present Council still in their armchairs when they have been seized illegally through political violence produced at the Montenegrin Assembly? If this country will ever react to the law? We are looking for a state that is equally applicable to all. As citizens, we do not allow those who work for us and do bad, and to make us crazy underway," say the organisers of the protest.
The 9th protest, they emphasise, like all the previous ones, should go in peace, dignity and nonviolence.
"We invite you to take care of those who are standing or walking beside you, to protect them and to preserve their dignity; please pay special attention to the elderly, the disabled, the pregnant women and the parents with the children like every Saturday, together with the security forces, to make sure everything goes as far as possible, "concludes the statement.
