Amid the ongoing #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria protests, youths in Kano State have taken to the streets waving Russian flags and calling for intervention from Russian President, Vladimir Putin.

Frustrated Nigerians first took to the streets on Thursday, August 1, to demand better governance and an end to pressing issues such as food inflation, general inflation, and high living costs.

The unusual display of Russian flags highlights the protesters’ frustration with the home government’s handling of the economic crisis, which has intensified hunger and hardship.

The protestors’ demands for Putin’s intervention reflect the growing discontent among Nigerians who feel their grievances are not being addressed by their own government led by President Bola Tinubu.

Meanwhile, it was earlier reported that the #EndBadGovernance protest resumed in Kano State, attracting a significant number of participants.
