PARIS OLYMPIC GAMES
The detained 76 #EndBadGovernance protesters just arrived at the Federal High Court in Abuja for their scheduled arraignment before Justice Obiora Egwuatu.
Widespread economic hardship, which prompted many Nigerians to take to the streets to voice their grievances, led to their arrest and detention during the nationwide protests from August 1 to 10.
The protesters, who were arrested in Abuja, Kaduna, Gombe, Jos, Katsina, and Kano states, are being accused of treason, among other offences.
The accused are Nura Ibrahim, 24; Abdulbasi Abdusalami, 34; Ahmed Yusuf, 25; Awolu Abdulahi, 21; Umar Musa, 15; and Muhammadu Mustapha, 16; among others.
