Scores of youths came out on Friday morning all carrying placards which had the inscriptions #BuhariMustGo. The hashtag stems from the growing frustration about the state of affairs of the country and the capacity of the present administration led by Muhammadu Buhari to turn the nation around.
The protesters carried a large banner with #RevolutionNow written on it while moving in the streets.
