A leader of the Bauchi North zone’s #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria protests, Isah Zaki, has voiced strong dissatisfaction with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s recent nationwide address.

On Monday morning in Katsina, some protesters waived Russian flags, chatting in Hausa, “Hunger is killing us.”

According to DailyTrust, Policemen have started trailing them, firing teargas to disperse them.
