Nigerians organise #BuhariMustGo protest at Abuja house in London

Nigerians living in the United Kingdom have hit the street in protest against President Buhari's prolonged stay at the Abuja House in London.

“Nigerians in London are back at ‘Abuja House’ to chase @mbuhari out of London. #Buharimustgo,” Human Rights activist, Omoyele Sowore wrote on his Twitter handle.

In the video embedded in the tweet, Nigerians were seen shouting “Say No To Bad Government” while posters pasted on the gates of the Abuja House read, “Buhari Must Go”, “#OccupyNigeria” and “Say No To Government Funded Terrorism”.

Sowore had earlier tweeted about the proposed protest on Tuesday evening, urging Nigerians in London to be part of the protest.

According to him, the demonstration is aimed at chasing the President out of London so he can return to the "world-class" Nigerian hospital he built for his medical check-up.

He had said: “Mass action in London tomorrow against Aso Rock’s mannequin @MBuhari; he must be chased out of London to return to do his medical check-up at the world-class hospital he built in Nigeria! They’ve paid £75 (about N30,000) to shameless Nigerians in London to come but they’ll be outnumbered.”

Last Friday, a crowd of Nigerians had in the United Kingdom stormed the Abuja House, 2 Campden Hill, Kensington, London, demanding Buhari's immediate return to Nigeria.
