Information reaching Viewers Corner News from our correspondent in Abuja (Nigeria) revealed that hoodlums hijacked the peaceful protests going on in most states across Nigeria. It was alleged that some politicians in Nigeria might have sponsored the attack on protesters so that the federal government of Nigeria and some states would have enough reason to place curfew in most troubled cities across Nigeria. As a result of this ugly incident, lives of innocent citizens of the country (Nigeria) and properties were lost which is so sad. In Edo state (Nigeria) according to Viewers Corner News correspondent, hoodlums went into a prison and freed some convicted criminals which is absolutely bad. Again, an eye witness also told Viewers Corner News correspondent in Benin city (Edo state, Nigeria) that some protesters were kidnapped by unknown gun men while some stores were looted. We (Viewers Corner News team) condemned such attitude, this is no longer a protest. We (Viewers Corner News team) are appealing to governor Godwin Obaseki to kindly fish out those responsible for these evil acts in Edo state (Nigeria) and have them punished. Viewers Corner News correspondent also gathered that in Abuja the capital city of Nigeria, hoodlums destroyed lots of properties worth millions of Naira which is very bad. Democracy permits peaceful protest as a means to send message to the leadership of any country by her citizens most especially when things are going wrong just like it is in Nigeria where youths of the country (Nigeria) can no longer bear the economic hardship which pushed them to the streets across Nigeria to have their voices heard. Viewers Corner News team would continue to support peaceful protest but condemn violence protests. However, we urge the people of Nigeria to end violence protest even when provoked by the leadership of the country (Nigeria).
