Young demonstrators under the aegis of the Take-It-Back Movement on Monday defied police warning and staged protests in Abuja, Lagos, Oyo, Rivers, among other states.

Clad in their signature orange berets, the protesters began their rally in Lagos at the Ikeja Under Bridge, marching through major roads in the state capital while chanting solidarity songs, under the watchful eyes of police officers.

The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) had earlier urged the movement to cancel its planned nationwide protest, describing the timing as “ill-conceived and mischievous.”

However, in a swift response, activist and former presidential candidate Omoyele Sowore dismissed the police’s concerns, rejecting claims that the protest, scheduled for Monday, was intended to undermine the National Police Day celebration.

The Take-It-Back movement protests are usually without any specific demands. The “Take It Back” movement has been active in organizing protests and making demands on various issues: The state of the Nigerian economy, the president’s declaration of state of emergency in Rivers State, among other issues.

In Oyo, of the Take-It-Back Movement protest held their peaceful demonstration in Ibadan, the state capital with security operatives on standby to ensure no breach of peace.

Any Igbo person you find there.
Kindle bundle the person into the next chisco bus down to his state.
Any fool who will make them turn the protest into "Igbos want to do this" should be severely dealt with

Some people are still sitting on the fence because they think it’s not their problem. When the time is right and protest is not enough, the Military will do the right thing by chasing out Tinubu and his criminal gang of thieves.

If the number one citizen protested during Jonathan’s istration, let him not seek the police on these protesters. We should lead by example.

Una go just waste una life. The security agents will just use you for shooting practice. Now that the President and VP are away, the heads of the security agencies will want to prove their loyalty by protecting the seats at all costs
