40 ⛓Arrested, Several Injured as Protesters 💥Clash with Police in Nigeria

On Tuesday, members from the Shiite Muslim community clashed with police around the National Assembly building in Abuja, Nigeria, as they protested against the detention of Sheik Ibrahim El-Zakzaky.

Both civilians and police officers were injured during the confrontation.

Two police officers were shot, police said on Tuesday. And according to AFP, police added that six other officers were hit by clubs and stones.

The incident occurred around 2pm and the National Assembly hurriedly suspended its plenary session due to the violence.

Zakzaky has been in custody since 2015 when the Shiite community clashed with the army in Zaria, Kaduna State, in northern Nigeria. More than 320 people were killed in the clashes. Zakzaky’s supporters have been holding peaceful protests since.

Yes the period is short but a leader with master plans can really make an effect and set the road map for the next government to follow. Check 2017 SUG set,  lead by Giant Comr. Nwachukwu Okechukwu {Young Evangelist},  though he had a good plan to build a standard S.U.G. office,  but due to time he could not finish it; yet that was the road map the government after him followed.
