INTIMIDATION? Gov Yusuf’s supporters protest in Ibadan, Kano

Discontent continues to grow over the judgment of the Court of Appeal ruling that sacked Kano State Governor, Abba Yusuf with some of his supporters taking to the streets in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital and in the Kano metropolis.

The protesters in what many consider attempts to intimidate the judiciary mostly included women supporters of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) who took the protest to the state’s Police Command headquarters

In Ibadan on Sunday, supporters of Governor Yusuf converged at the Lekan Salami Sports Complex to pray and thereafter staged a peaceful protest to press home their demands for the maintenance of the status quo in Kano State.
