Police Fire Teargas at Abuja Protesters As Nationwide Demonstrations Intensify

Police officers have reportedly deployed teargas to disperse protesters near the Federal Secretariat in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital, as demonstrations against economic hardship and soaring inflation intensified on Thursday.

The nationwide protest tagged #EndBadGovernance, has seen young Nigerians take to the streets to voice their discontent. The demonstrations have been met with a heavy police presence across the country.

On Wednesday, a Federal Capital Territory (FCT) High Court, presided over by Judge Sylvanus Oriji, issued a restriction order confining the protests to the MKO Abiola Stadium in Abuja.

This decision came after an ex-parte motion filed by Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the FCT, who sued prominent activists including Omoyele Sowore, Damilare Adenola, Adama Ukpabi, and Tosin Harsogba.

The situation remains fluid, with ongoing heavy police deployment aimed at managing the large-scale protests that have been gaining momentum.
