Heavy Security in Port Harcourt Amid #October1Fearless Protest
Port Harcourt, the capital of Rivers State, experienced a heavy security presence on Tuesday as tensions rose in response to the nationwide #October1Fearless protest.
This protest follows the #EndBadGovernance demonstrations, which saw youth across various states take to the streets for ten days in August. Although suspected anti-protesters gathered in large numbers, they did not engage in demonstrations, prompting an increase in security personnel in the area.
Security forces, including the Nigerian Police, Army, and Civil Defence, patrolled the city. Despite the heightened security, businesses operated normally, with commuters and vehicles moving freely, and no incidents of violence were reported. Observers noted that the anti-protesters congregated at the Federal Secretariat and Pleasure Park, locations previously used by August protesters.
