The protesters’ march to the Eagle Square was foiled this afternoon by the heavy presence of armed security personnel who were rehearsing for the activities marking the Armed Forces remembrance day at the Three Arms Zone just opposite the Eagle Square in Abuja.

Protesters under the leadership of the NLC and TUC made a detour at the Adetokunbo Ademola Crescent axis, very close to the Federal Secretariat, to the AP Plaza Junction, also in Wuse II District.
