“The youths who were carrying sticks, THISDAY gathered were throwing stones at Buhari’s helicopter, were however dispersed by security agents who fired shots in the air to scare them away. This was just as the president compared the situation in Nigeria with that of other countries and concluded that the country’s condition was not as bad as being portrayed by some people. The mammoth protesting youths were chanting “ba mu so” (we don’t want) as they set a bonfire of tires along Hotoro Road where the president had left after commissioning the Muhammadu Buhari Interchange. The protest came few days after a similar incident occurred in Katsina, the president’s hometown.Reports have it that some sections of all the four major roads leading the newly constructed Muhammadu Buhari Interchange Flyover were closed for two days in anticipation of the president’s visit. In video clips circulated on social media, other youths were seen throwing pebbles at the president’s helicopter.”  – THISDAY
