NLC Protest: Protesters pull down National Assembly gate

Protesters in Abuja have knocked down the gate of the National Assembly.

Earlier, protesters led by leaders of the Organised Labour, Joe Ajaero of the Nigeria Labour Congress and Festus Osifo of the Trade Union Congress, begged security personnel stationed outside the legislative building to open the gates so that enraged workers could vent their frustration.

Following the failure of the security officials to adhere, angry protesters pulled down the gates and thronged into the assembly complex to vent their anger
