Protesters of the Anti-Bad Government movement have stormed the Government House in Dutse, the capital city of Jigawa State, and all 27 local government areas, blocking roads, government buildings, and public places.
They carried placards with inscriptions such as “End Bad Government”, “Bring back fuel subsidy”, and “Hunger everywhere”.
A coalition of security operatives, armed with heavy weapons, were positioned at strategic locations across the city, with some escorting the protesters.
