Just as June 12 protesters had it raw in the hands of the Abuja Police command, those in Lagos have not fared any better.
Police men fired teargas at the protesters gathered at the Gani Fawehinmi Park at Ojota Lagos this morning. Video clips on Twitter show people running in different directions as they tried to escape from the uncomfortable atmosphere.
On the contrary, June 12 protesters in the UK posted pictures and video clips of their peaceful protests with armed policemen watching over them. See the clip below:
We are currently protesting in London and there’s no violence from police officers. They’re decent and guiding us well without shooting or tear gas.
