Officers of the Nigeria Police Force have dispersed #FearlessInOctober protesters who had gathered at Utako Market in Abuja.

According to report, the protesters assembled as early as 7 am on Tuesday to voice their concerns about the hardship Nigerians are facing due to government policies and programs.

However, by around 8:54 am, police officers swiftly dispersed the crowd.

The #FearlessInOctober protest, which took place on October 1, is a continuation of the #EndBadGovernance protests that occurred between August 1 and 10, sparked by the ongoing economic challenges affecting many Nigerians.
