Heavy Gunfire In Abuja As Soldiers Shoot At Protesting Shiites by FuckFuckPastor(op): 5:12pm On Mar 28, 2025
There is tension presently in the Wuse area of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, over persistent gunshots as the Nigerian Army personnel attacked and shot at the members of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria (IMN) at the Banex Plaza.

Speaking with SaharaReporters, a source in the area said, "It's been a rain of sporadic shootings by the Nigerian Army around Austoma Petrol Station/ Banex Axis on Aminu Kano Cresent, Wuse 2, Abuja.

"Some parts of the road have been condoned to probably fish out the Islamic protesters that might be hiding around.

I had to abandon my car on the Ahmadu Bello/Aminu Kano Cresent Traffic light because of the shootings."


The clash occurred just hours after the United States Embassy in Nigeria issued a security alert, warning its citizens about planned IMN protests in Abuja and other major cities on Friday.

In the advisory, the US Embassy had cautioned that demonstrations could lead to disruptions such as roadblocks, traffic congestion, and possible confrontations.

“The Islamic Movement of Nigeria has called for demonstrations in Abuja and other major cities on Friday, March 28, 2025. Heavy traffic and other disruptions are possible. Based on past occurrences, protests may involve roadblocks, checkpoints, traffic congestion, and physical confrontations,” the embassy had stated.

The security warning listed potential protest locations, including Banex Plaza, Berger Junction, Unity Fountain, the National Human Rights Commission Head Office, Eagle Square, Area 10 Shopping Plaza, the National Mosque, Al-Noor Mosque, and Fouad Lababidi Mosque.

Protesting for what exactly?. You northerners should allow us have peace in this country for once.

Zoo of a nation, what impression are they giving to foreigners that are in Abuja for the first time, or maybe for a conference or summit?
Re: Heavy Gunfire In Abuja As Soldiers Shoot At Protesting Shiites by shortgun(m):
Tinubu has not solved a single problem since he became president, instead he's busy creating more problems and making the existing ones worseangry

Obasanjo gave us Telecom (GSM)
Yaradua gave us Amnesty program
Jonathan gave us the largest economy in Africa
Buhari didn't give us anything but he refused to float the naira or remove subsidy.
What have Tinubu done for Nigeria?

Nigeria is gradually sliding into crisis.
Tell me any region in Nigeria right now including the FCT that does not have one security tension or the other?
See what happened in Uromi Edo State this afternoon, how traveling hunters were lynched to their untimely death.
