Information reaching me right now is that a serious protest is taking place at Checkpoint Nyanya down to mararaba axis. The Crowd is said to be enormous.

The protest, which began near Nyanya checkpoint, saw a large crowd attempting to march towards the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). However, police forces intervened to prevent the demonstrators from advancing.

Tensions escalated when an innocent bystander, not involved in the protest, was reportedly shot in the leg during the altercation.

In response protesters have burnt the Police outpost at checkpoint, beat the first batch of police that tried stopping them who managed to escape, hopped into their vehicles and zoomed off. They have also burned tires at various locations.

The situation intensified with the sound of gunfire in the air, which was clearly signaling a volatile atmosphere.

Adding to the tension, helicopters were seen patrolling overhead as all attention shifted from other protests in city of Abuja to this particular unrest.

Concerns have been raised about the potential for further violence, with calls for restraint and caution. Observers are questioning whether the military, who have been deployed, can maintain control without resorting to further use of force.

For me, PR Tinubu should call the military to order. Shooting protesters at day one is a bad move that can change the course of the entire protest. There are other measures that can be taken.

Above all, the big question is, can the Military hold them for too long without shooting multiple people?

Scary times ahead. Just inform any of your relatives or loved ones to stay safe.

Residents of Mararaba, masaka, ado, New Nyanya has started ing the protest in just day one.
Scary thing is some of those boys are smoking the teargas and throwing it back at the police.

Nigerians protesting; while excising your right please know your enemies. The masses are not your enemy so don't inflict more hardship on them.

You were warned well ahead that there was anger in the land and people are angry. You dismissed it because of your massive lots over the years. Whatever becomes of you, you brought it up on yourselves.

A day is coming when Nigerians will begin to go extreme because of the accumulated pains they have been subjected to over the years

I hope Wike is seeing this? He always thought that FCT is River State.

Tinubu should just reduce fuel to N250-300... It might help a little... Waiting for Tinubu to address the nation this evening or id the protesters tomorrow at Eagle Square

My fear, those that are killed will be forgotten in less than a month, their family will grief , no compensation from government, most people on nairaland ing the protest are in their houses chatting on phone.

Protest should go on but nobody should cross each other path. That is my stand.

Thank you 'Oluchi'

Tinubu is playing with fire.
His policies will bring an end to his tenure if he continues to form Jagaban.

By 2027 Wike will be well schooled about how Abuja and it's residents operates. His madness starts and ends in Rivers state.

You can't stop a hungry and angry man. This government is playing with 🔥

Anyone who studies ing is typically well-versed in resource management, so it is puzzling that President Tinubu's resource management skills seem to be lacking. It raises questions about the legitimacy of his qualifications, prompting speculation that he may have forged his certificate.
