Activist, Deji Adeyanju on Monday questioned the decision of protesters to raise the Russian flag and advocating for a military coup.
Adeyanju said waving the Russian flag and asking for a military coup during protest was treason.
He requested that security services detain anyone waving the Russian flag and advocating for an invasion by armed forces.
Posting on X, Sani wrote: “It is treason to be raising the Russian flag and calling for a military coup. That is not protest but treason. Security agencies should arrest those doing so.
“While we welcome those who didn’t protest for once under Buhari’s terrible 8yrs of bad governance, treason is condemnable.”
Recall that the Russian flag in the colours red, blue, and white was seen in the states of Kano, Plateau, Kaduna, and Zamfara as protests raged in other states.
The Russian Embassy responded to the news by highlighting that the activities of the nationwide hunger protesters do not represent any official Russian government policy or stance.
