Operatives of the Nigeria Police Force have arrested no fewer than 30 #Endbadgovernance protesters for waving Russian flags in Kano, Kaduna, Katsina and Bauchi states.
The Police spokesperson, Muyiwa Adejobi, said 873 other protesters have been arrested by the police, including a tailor, identified as Ahmed Bello, who was arrested with a large number of flags in Kano.
This is following the directive by President Bola Tinubu to security agencies to crack down on those flying Russian flags in the country.
The Chief of Defence Staff Gen. Christopher Musa while briefing newsmen after the National Security Council meeting said that the situation became worrisome as foreign flags being flown within Nigeria’s sovereignty is totally unacceptable.
He also said that all security agencies are ready to defend democracy and the nation’s sovereignty.
