 Social media has been trending today with the hashtag #June12thProtest, what is happening??   

  



 




These photos has ben trending on Twitter, as people that doesn't live in Nigeria is confused about this, so the real story is that a couple of activists in Nigeria decided they they are calling to protest on 12th of June, as there are so many stuff happening in Nigeria for the past six months annd people will not hold it anymore, they will do action upon it, what happened is:

  • Over 1000 children and students had been taken by the terrorist armies that live there,  
  • Hundred of security men had been killed by gunmen.
  • Over 500 people killed due to cult clashes.
  • Soldiers killed by Jihad terrorists. 
  • 2,600 people had been killed from armed herders.
  • 300 people killed due to Judicial killings. 
What's Happening Today??
  • Internet Shutdown.
  • Harassment.
  • Civil rights violations.
  • More than 40 million unemployed youth.
  • More than 10 million is displaced in Nigeria
  • Over 150 million Nigerians live in poverty and hunger.
What is their demand?
  • Stop the killing and kidnapping.
  • End social media shutdown.
  • Convene an emergency inner regional dialogue committee for all regions in a month.
All photos on social media these days are telling me that there is no going back, they will do the protest due to all these killings and kidnapping that happened these past six months, as all protest is happening in different counties like Amsterdam for example.
