REVOLUTION IS Now : an uprising or a public menace ?
Today in the history of Nigeria, marks the first time two major ethnic group’s youth will rise against the government of the day. It all began as a one man’s (Sowore) project on twitter. But after his arrest, the anger, hatred, desperation of the youth spilled out. Has it became an opportunity for many to demonstrate the lack of confidence they have in the government of the day.
The National Stadium in Surulere became a battle ground between the Nigeria police force and the protesters. Base on this face-off, a lot of arrests were made, and so many protesters sustained injury as could be seen in the pictures below.
