#revolutionnow Protesters Storm US Embassy, Demand Buhari's Resignation by Meenatnigeria(f): 2:44pm On Oct 01, 2020
The PUNCH reports that many members of the #RevolutionNow Group on Thursday protested at the United States Embassy in Abuja over the security and socio-economic situation in the country.

They demanded the resignation of the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), over insecurity, hunger, and corruption in the country.

The campaigners led by the convener of the movement, Omoyele Sowore, wielded a big banner with the inscription, ‘Buhari has failed,’ and other placards which read, ‘Failed leadership has made Nigeria the capital of the world,’ and ‘#RevolutionNow’.

The protesters, who also included #BringBackOurGirls activist, Aisha Yesufu, Ariyo Dare-Atoye, Henry Shield, Adebayo Raphael, Deji Adeyanju of Concerned Nigerians, among others, criticised what they described as oppression in the country.

Yesufu in her remarks said Nigerians must make the nation work, stating that things were becoming unbearable.

Raphael said Nigerians have passed a vote of no confidence in the country’s political leadership, adding that “under Buhari, our economy is in shambles; under him, hardship has been redefined.”

Adeyanju said Nigerians were dissatisfied with the security and economic conditions in the country, stressing that “Nigeria is not working.”

He observed that soldiers, policemen, and other security agents have taken over the Unity Fountain, Maitama, where a rally was supposed to hold.

The activist appealed to the US to place a visa ban on the Director-General of the Department of State Services for clamping down on protesters in Osogbo.

The campaigners also sang solidarity songs and berated the government for failing to address the insecurity in the country.

We gathered that the protest also held at Area one, Life Camp, Jabi, Kuje, Kwali, Kubwa and Lugbe.

If you appoint Sowore as a minister tomorrow, he will turn to another Festus Keyamo.
I don't trust that man.
He's been tested but failed.Presently acting like a scorned wife.
Used his Sahara reporters to blackmail GEJ a lot,eg GEJ is training snipers against opposition members.

They are on their own. Their small number tells everything one should know about the popularity of their agenda.

Disintegration remains the ONLY ANSWER for the security of our children and their unborn generation.
Celebration of Nigeria is nothing but a celebration of wickedness, genocide, terrorism and outright impunity.

DISINTEGRATION OF NIGERIA WILL SAVE MILLIONS OF LIVES FROM STATE SPONSORED TERRORISM! SUPPORT IT.
