“I Didn’t Know I Was Brought For Counter-Protest” – Pro-Government Protester Reveals [Video]

A pro-government protester claims to be unaware he was brought to participate in a counter- demonstration against #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria protest.

Protests erupted across Nigeria on Thursday, with people in several states demonstrating against the country’s hardships, while some states saw major roads deserted.

At the same time, counter-protesters arrived at the National Stadium in Abuja in five buses to demonstrate against the #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria.

Speaking with PUNCH, one of the counter-protesters revealed that he wasn’t aware he was brought for a counter-protest.

The man said he thought they were told they were being transported to the location for the actual protest.
