August 1: Thugs threaten traders, warn them against protest in Lagos market

Ahead of nationwide protests against poor governance
starting August 1, a concerning video has emerged showing thugs intimidating
market traders on Lagos Island.

 

The footage, which has been widely circulated, shows the
thugs moving through the market and threatening traders with severe
consequences if they do not comply with their demands.

 

One of the individuals in the video is heard warning,
“Nigerians, you are not the only people hungry. Do not come out on August 1st
to protest. Well, if you get the mind to come out, see what will happen to
you.”

 

This comes amid several calls from the government, religious
leaders, and civil society organisations to shelve the anticipated protest.
