Protesters storm National Assembly, insist on annulment of presidential election

Some protesters on Wednesday stormed the National Assembly in Abuja to register their displeasure over the outcome of the February 25 presidential election in Nigeria.

The protesters who carried placards with various inscriptions such as “Save our Democracy,” “Politicians are killing our Democracy,” and “INEC killing the Nigerian Democracy,” among others, reiterated their earlier call for the annulment of the 2023 presidential election.

The protest, which took off from the Unity Fountain in Maitama, paralyzed vehicular movement in the heart of the nation’s capital for hours
