Police Disperse #RevolutionNow In Lagos And Abuja

The police in Lagos have arrested 10 participants of the #RevolutionNow protest currently ongoing across the country.

The protesters, who gathered at the Ikeja area of Lagos, were attacked by the police with teargas canisters in order to disperse them.

Those arrested have been moved to an unknown destination while others at the scene of the protest are being chased by the police to leave the vicinity.

The demonstrators had taken to the streets early this morning to demand better governance from the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari.

Over 40 of the #RevolutionNow protesters have been also arrested in Abuja by military personnel deployed by the government to patrol different parts of the city.

The protesters, who were coming from the Mararaba axis, were arrested around the Unity Fountain and thrown into at least six trucks that whisked them away to an unknown destination.

The security agents are searching every vehicle passing through the route in a bid to identify and apprehend other persons participating in the protest.

Citizens in large numbers have already poured out to the streets in major cities across the country in commemoration of the first anniversary of the #RevolutionNow protest that saw Nigerians demanding better governance from the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari on August 5, 2019.
