No fewer than 13 people, including women and children, have been confirmed dead in Kano State as unharmed protesters were attacked by security operatives on Saturday amid the ongoing nationwide protests. 

It was learnt that the violence erupted in Rijiyar Lemo, Kurna to Bachirawa areas in Fagge Local Government, Kofar Nassarawa in Kano municipal and Unguwa Uku area of Tarauni Local Government of the state.

In a video seen by SaharaReporters, thousands of peaceful protesters were carrying on their constitutional duty in a major street in the state before being accosted by armed security operatives who fired teargas at them. 

This made some of the protesters confront the police, turning the situation into a violent clash as some policemen were captured in the video brutalising the protesters.

A source privy to the situation confirmed the number of casualties to SaharaReproters, adding that many people were also injured. 

“In Kano, 13 people are confirmed killed sir, including women and children,” the source said. 

Recall that the state government on Thursday imposed a 24-hour curfew after the nationwide #EndbadGovernance protest turned violent in the state. 

SaharaReporters also reported how a newly built Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) Industrial Park in the state was vandalised by unknown people masquerading as protesters. 

Reacting, the President Bola Tinubu-led administration later revealed that there were about 150 new computers and laptops inside the looted facility. 

Photographs obtained by SaharaReporters showed numerous individuals making off with stolen items, including furniture, electronics, and equipment from the NCC office.

Speaking on the incident when he appeared on Channels TV on Thursday night, the Minister of Digital Economy, Bosun Tijani, said the facility was completely vandalised by the miscreants.

President Tinubu had also scheduled Sunday morning to address Nigerians over the ongoing nationwide protests over bad governance in the country. 

This was announced in a press statement issued by his aide, Bayo Onanuga on Saturday via X platform, saying that the President will address the nation in a broadcast on Sunday, August 4, 2024, at 7:00 am.

The statement continued: “Television, radio, and other electronic media outlets are enjoined to plug into the network services of the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) and the Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria (FRCN) for the broadcast.

“The broadcast will be repeated on the network services of the NTA and the FRCN at 3:00 pm and 7:00 pm on the same day.”
