Solidarity in action: Police share water to protesters

In a surprising display of solidarity, police officers were seen handing out sachet water to protesters on Thursday.

A video shared by the police force on its X handle showed police officers distributing bags of water to the demonstrators.

The police captioned the video: “If it’s peaceful, we’re game” – indicating their support for peaceful protests.

Protests erupted in some states on Thursday as citizens expressed their frustration over the country’s prevailing economic hardship.

Nigerians began the #EndbadgovernanceinNigeria protest on August 1, 2024, to draw the attention of the government to their plight.
