Day 3 #EndBadGovernanceProtest: Many Protesters were Tear-Gassed, Beaten to Stupor and Violently Marched by Security Operatives in Kano on the Third Day of the Nationwide #EndHunger Protest.

Many protesters were tear-gassed, beaten to stupor and violently marched by security operatives in Kano on the third day of the nationwide #EndHunger protest.

In a viral video online, a police armoured personnel carrier charged towards hundreds of protesters at full speed as water cannons and tear gas were fired to disperse the protesters.

As the protesters were trying to run for safety, other police officers who were on foot chased the youths and violently battered many of them to stupor with sticks.

Scenes of brutal force by security operatives characterised the containment of the widespread protests by the Nigerian authorities.

The protest, which began on Thursday, witnessed high-handed tactics by security agents.
