Police officers in Abuja this morning splashed water and fired tear gas canisters on a group of concerned Nigerians led by musician, Charly Boy, calling for the immediate return or resignation of President Buhari. The group started their protest yesterday August 7th. Former PDP youth leader, Deji Adeyanju, who shared one of the videos, alleged that a staff of Silverbird TV, was injured and has been taken to the Federal Staff clinic in Abuja.
