Supporters of Nasir El-Rufai stormed the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission office today, triggering a heated clash with security operatives.
What started as a peaceful show of solidarity quickly escalated when officers fired tear gas to disperse the crowd gathered outside the agency’s headquarters in Abuja.
But the protesters were not backing down.
In videos circulating online, voices could be heard shouting:
“We will come back! When it clears, we will come back!”
🔥 Why the Tension?
The unrest comes just days after reports alleging an attempted arrest of the former Kaduna State governor at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport.
El-Rufai reportedly showed up at the EFCC office today with hundreds of loyalists — a move that fueled today’s confrontation.
🧨 The Atmosphere?
Crowded. Loud. Charged.
Supporters chanting. Tear gas in the air.
Security forces holding the line.
And a promise from protesters: they’ll be back.
