Police Shoots Tear Gas To Disperse Protesters At MKO Abiola Stadium In Abuja
Police authorities have used tear gas to disperse protesters at the MKO Abiola Stadium in Abuja who had converged to press on with their demands.
The protesters, lesser than the number witnessed the previous days, had converged at the facility.
But a few hours later, police officers fired tear gas canisters to disperse the protesters.
The MKO Abiola Stadium is the designated venue for the protests in the nation’s capital. A court order had restrained the #EndBadGovernance demonstrators from using other areas.
On Friday, tear gas canisters were also fired at the protesters when they gathered in the Berger roundabout area of the FCT.
But the rallies are continuing – although there is a reduction in the number of demonstrators – in other parts of the country. Lagos, Benin City in Edo State, and Port Harcourt in Rivers State also witnessed protests.
