There is currently tension in Wuse Market Abuja after hoodlums attacked Charly Boy’s car this morning. The musician and his protesters had gone there to mobilize the traders to join their Resume or Resign protest. Some of the traders who are not in support of the protest resorted to throwing stones at him and his vehicle. According to the angry traders, Charly Boy should not bring political issues to the market.
In a series of tweets by one of the leaders of the ‘ResumeOrResign’ group, Deji Adeyanju, some youths attacked them when they moved to the market in the course of their protest.
“We just went to Wuse market for mobilization against 100 days event tomorrow & a regular face at Unity Fountain brought thugs to attack us,” Deji wrote on Twitter.
“They attacked us with police on Tuesday. Tried to attack us at Unity Fountain with their government sponsored thugs. Today is Wuse Market.
“Charly Boy’s car was damaged by the thugs. This is a senseless government. #ResumeOrResign.
“There are wraps of money all over Unity Fountain shared by Pro-Buhari protesters. The government says it’s fighting corruption.”
The #ResumeOrResign protesters had started a campaign on Monday last week, demanding the return of the president who is away in the United Kingdom on a medical vacation.
