#EndBackGovernanceProtesters were spotted in the streets of Abuja holding Russia flags despite President Tinubu’s order to halt protest.
According to Auwalu Idi, a protester, “We are raising the Russian flag because we believe Tinubu is playing his masters’ scripts — the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund (IMF), and the United States of America.”
The protesters’ demands include an end to hunger, food inflation, and bad governance, as well as the return of fuel subsidies.
Recall that the trend was first observed in Kano, on the first day of the protest.
On Saturday, the protesters defied a 24-hour curfew to carry out their protest, urging Russian President Vladimir Putin to intervene in Nigeria.
