NURTW thugs vow to ‘finish’ residents who join #EndBadGovernance protests
Hoodlums are parading Akure streets chasing away #EndBadGovernance protesters in Ondo.
Members of the National Union of Road Transport Workers led the hoodlums.
The thugs, armed with matchets, knives and sticks, threatened to assault the protesters.
Some thugs stormed the NEPA roundabout, Oluwatuyi, First Bank, Oja Oba/Adesida road, Cathedral, and Oba N’la junction, threatening to “finish” any protesters.
“We’re warning everyone now. We said nobody should come out to protest. If anyone dares us, we will finish them,” one of the thugs stated. “It is better if you listen. Ondo state is very peaceful. Nobody should come out to protest here. Don’t be instigated.”
