Security agencies have identified Senator sponsoring protest – FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike reveals

Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory FCT, has said security agencies in the territory have identified a senator as one of those sponsoring the anti-government protest.

Wike made this known shortly after an emergency FCT Security Council meeting in Abuja on Thursday night, 1st of August, 2024.

“We had said before now that we will continue to brief the press as we monitor the protest of people who say they are protesting against bad governance and hunger in the country..
