The statement of the Russian Embassy in Nigeria for the Media regarding the use of the official symbols of the Russian Federation by protesters

The Embassy has noted the reports in Nigerian media and the circulation of videos and images in digital media depicting protesters in Northern states of the country carrying Russian flags and chanting slogans to Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The Government of the Russian Federation as well as any Russian officials are not involved in these activities and do not co-ordinate them in any way.

As always, we emphasize that Russia does not interfere in the domestic affairs of foreign states, including Nigeria. These intentions of some protesters to wave Russian flags are personal choices of individuals, and they do not reflect any official position or policy of the Russian Government in the issue.

We respect Nigerian democracy and believe that peaceful demonstrations in conformity with the Nigerian law are a manifestation of democracy. However, should these events lead to any disruptions or acts of violence we strictly condemn them.

Using fóolish agbadorians logic and narrative, Vladimir Putin and other Russian terrorist should be arrested immediately by Tinubu because they used Social media platforms to instigate violence in Nigeria with sinister motive of ganging up the north against Tinubu government, that's the reason Russian flag is used by northerners during this protest. grin

The only good thing about this Tinubu supporters is that they know how to entertained with their inherent føolishness. So they are not completely uselèss.🤣🤣🤣

Tinubu is a shame to south west Nigeria

Just a year in office see how much suffer he has inflicted on citizens even to the extend of their so acclaimed allies from the north are protesting heavily against him

Tinubu and his online miscreants had so much focus on South East and South South little did they know the bomb shell was coming from North the owners of Nigeria

Foolish and useless master strategist

AuntyBisola:
Tactical talk to deflect attention. In Putin Nigerians trust. Time is coming.

I knew the Igbos will still be angry with this clarification from Russia.

You claim you are not protesting, but you are the ones all over social media advocating for all manner of anarchy.

Shame on you.

Election loss is not the end of human positivity.

If you like, change to as many Yoruba names in your head.

Russia will always deny.
When they wanted to invade Ukraine they also denied it in their Embassy saying it's military exercise.

If the federal government can depend on China for loans, the impoverished citizens also has right to depend on Russia for security.

This shows that the protest is being observed world wide. The IMF fooling the government of the day to unleash suffering to Nigerians should take note.

But jokes apart, these our northern people have a different kind of mentality. What exactly is a Russian flag doing in Nigeria during a protest?
