The aftermath of the United States elections is beginning to bear some similarities with a typical Nigerian election. 

Thousands of people marched, rallied and chanted in around cities in the United States, against the billionaire president-elect, Donald Trump, a day after his stunning win.

Reports said the crowd grew to about 300 people, including some who sat in the middle of a road. The crowd of anti-Trump protesters burned American flags and chanted, “That’s not my president.”

Some of the protesters carried signs with slogans such as “Not our President” and “Love trumps hate.”

See some of the pictures below.
