Controversial social media critic, Martin Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan, told the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, they are not fighting anybody but exercising their constitutional right.
VeryDarkMan, who spoke moments before police teargassed protesters at the Berger Roundabout in Abuja on Friday, also said the minister cannot tell them where to carry out the protest,
He added that they had no need to go to the stadium since they were not footballers like Victor Osimhen or Jay Jay Okocha.
“We are not dogs, we are not sheeps. Wike cannot tell us where to go to the stadium to protest. Nigeria is our country, and it is our right to protest.”
