After three days of relative calm, fresh protests have erupted in Katsina, with young persons marching on the streets, waving Russian flag.

Conveners of the #EndBadGovernance protests have declared that the exercise would run from August 1 to August 10.

But in his nationwide broadcast on Sunday, President Bola Tinubu appealed to the protesters to halt their actions and dialogue with his government.

He also appealed to them not to allow enemies of democracy use them to promote an unconstitutional agenda.

“Let us work together to build a brighter future for ourselves and for generations to come. Let us choose hope over fear, unity over division, and progress over stagnation. The economy is recovering; Please, don’t shut out its oxygen. Now that we have been enjoying democratic governance for 25 years, do not let the enemies of democracy use you to promote an unconstitutional agenda that will set us back on our democratic journey. FORWARD EVER, BACKWARD NEVER!” Tinubu had said.

However, the use of Russian flag gained momentum across protest grounds after the broadcast.

Russia, an Eastern power which is currently having a cold war with the West, Nigeria’s colonial master, has been fingered in the coup d’etats in West African countries such as Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger, among others.

On Monday morning in Katsina, some protesters waived Russian flags, chatting in Hausa, “Hunger is killing us,”

Policemen have started trailing them, firing teargas to disperse them.

Tinubu should just return fuel price to where he met it, and save Nigeria from anarchy.

No amount of teargas , intimidation , assault or shooting will make the north back off from this protest. The more they tear gas , the more the north are being provoked.

Tinubu and other local Yoruba Muslims did worst than this to GEJ

Hope we are not ending this union too soon? People are hungry, our politicians are not understanding the issue. They are still pursuing imaginary enemies.

Another day, another drama.

So these ones think waving Russian flags will change anything?

Peter Obi's fans must be so proud of this display of confusion.

Na only mischief makers dey carry such flags for Nigeria.

This na just a way to distract us from real issues.

The use of Russian flat is just another way of saying they want military take over.

and if they ask you now meaning of the Russian Flag those guys are holding i swear you can't explain


don't forget you once hate Russian as a country

These protesters are clearly confused; waving a Russian flag in Nigeria won't change our reality. It's a shame they can't see that their actions are just a distraction from the real issues we face.

Almajiris ba sense, dem no get am at all

After mismanaging our resources, we want to blame colonial masters. Changing masters is not the way out. Corruption exists within.

Make tinubu dey use cocaine play

North go soon enter abuja to give him Bangladesh treatment

Make e no pass like this oo

Tinubu having a more bitter pill 💊 of his medicine... He deserve every dosage

We're keeping records of those who are fighting for a better tomorrow in Nigeria. Nobody should claim victimization tomorrow, when they don't gain relevance in government and otherwise, because, it is a criminal act, trying to reap where you didn't sow...

For waving a flag?
You guys want to turn this into a riot now abi?

But honestly, what impact does waving Russian flags have on Bad Governance in Nigeria? Let the North stop validating foolishness all in the name of protests.

Isn't that the same flag behind oga..?

HAUSA PEOPLE DECISION IS CLEAR, LET'S END TINUBU REGIME, THEY MIGHT JOIN NIGER REPUBLIC, SOONER THAN EXPECTED,BY SENDING SIGNAL TO RUSSIA FEDERATION

why are colonial masters still ruling us by proxy by installing or chosen leaders of their choice to rule us? Is tinubu the real winner of the last election conducted?
