JUST IN: #EndSARS protesters to shut down Abuja airport today
EndSARs protesters in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja, are said to be planning to shut down Nnamdi Azikwe International Airport, Abuja, this morning.
The protesters, who are to assemble at Airport junction, under the bridge from 7 am, will also take their protest to Sauka; Giri; Ako; Gossa; Kuje; Lugbe and Zamani, all on Airport road, as a way of showing their grievances to the brutality of a unit of Nigeria Police name-code Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS), Tribune Online reports.
One of the human rights activists, who did not want his name in print, told Tribune Online that travellers on this route would be asked to join them or return home.
Recall that Nigerians, especially youths, have been demonstrating across the country, including FCT, over the gruesome killings of some Nigerians by members of Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS).
