Residents of Lagos state took to the streets in their numbers in different parts of Lagos to express their displeasure towards certain situations ongoing. The pains of individuals in the state were aired out openly through protests for different reasons.
The new intakes of the University of Lagos (UNILAG) in collaboration with the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) took to the streets of Akoka earlier in the day in a peaceful protest, to express their distress towards the hike in School fees.
While the peaceful protest was in progress, a large number of security operatives including the Police, LASTMA officers, and DSS officers who got forehand information of the protest to be held were seen along the school gate, down to Unilag road to disrupt the plans of the protest.
A short while into the protest, these officers were seen firing rounds of teargas towards the students protesting peacefully.
Four of the protesters were whisked away by the police off the protest.
On another side of Lagos state, individuals well clad in white collar job outfits were seen on the streets protesting in Yaba and VI against outrageous bank charges.
