Clashes have erupted between protesters and police in Abuja, as security forces used teargas to disperse demonstrators gathered around the Federal Secretariat.
The protest, part of a nationwide movement dubbed “10 days of rage,” is demanding action against economic hardship and soaring inflation.
Despite a Federal Capital Territory (FCT) High Court order restricting protesters to the MKO Abiola stadium, some demonstrators defied the directive, leading to heated arguments with police personnel.
A significant police presence is visible across the nation as the protest gains momentum.
Several injuries have been reported, with protesters and police personnel affected.
