Few days after members of "Our- Mumu -Don- Do" an anti -Buhari protest group were assaulted at Wuse market in Abuja, the group has suspended its protest indefinitely.
Announcing the suspension at Unity Fountain in Abuja on Wednesday, the group leader, Charles Oputa a.k.a Charly Boy said the next line of action would be made known in the days ahead.
He said even though members of the group had received death threats, they were not deterred.
“We are not deterred by the intimidation and harassment by the sponsored thugs and we cannot be cowed by a few group of people,” he said.
“What government want to do is to ensure that we have a clash with the hired crowd and we will not allow that to happen.”
But for the intervention of security personnel, the situation at the market would have gone out of hand.
Although Charly Boy escaped unhurt physically, his car was damaged. A man who was injured was rushed to the hospital by operatives of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC).
The protesters had started a campaign on Monday last week, demanding that President Muhammadu Buhari – who is on a medical vacation the UK – resumes or resigns.
