BREAKING: Tailor promoting spread of Russian flag arrested in Kano
One of the men behind the spread of Russian flag in Kano, North West Nigeria, has been arrested.
Daily Trust reports that thousands of Nigerians who joined the #EndBadGovernance protest are waving the foreign flags in different parts of the country.
The trend started last week in few places where protest held, but by Monday, the number of those waving the flags increased by a wide margin.
The development comes after President Bola Tinubu warned protesters against being used to promote an unconstitutional agenda.
