Youths Protest In Buhari’s Home State, Block Highways Over Insecurity, Attacks By Gunmen
According to reports, some youngsters in Yantumaki hamlet have blocked various routes in protest of the ongoing deaths and attacks by gunmen in Kastina State.
The protest, it was learned, began on Monday morning and was attended by internally displaced people (IDPs).
The protesters noted that the influx of IDPs was attracting attacks by bandits to the town, Primium Times reports.
“We (Yantumaki) have over 20,000 displaced persons from communities in the three local government areas who have taken shelter in the town. They joined the protest to send a message across to the government.
“We are not even safe and the presence of these (IDPs) can make things worse for us. You know they (bandits) killed our district head last year and have been attacking the town at will,” a resident said.
The youths who promised not to destroy any property continued with their protest even after attempts by soldiers stop the protest.
