Protesters assembled at the popular Berger roundabout in Abuja today to continue their protest against the economic hardship in the country, which commenced on Thursday, August 1.
However, journalists covering the protest were not spared on Friday as security operatives tear-gassed at various locations where the protesters had gathered.
