Christian protesters on Friday formed a human shield around their Muslim counterparts as they observed their Friday prayers at the protests ground in Ojota area of Lagos.
The #EndBadGovernance Protest had entered its second day during which the protesters have made their positions on the economy known.
In a now viral post on X, the Christian protesters formed a shield around the Muslim faithfuls all through the course of the Friday prayer at Gani Fawehinmi Freedom Park, Ojota.
There have been reports of similar inter-faith understandings among protesters who demonstrated unity in the face of alleged hunger.
Similar incident occurred yesterday in Jos, Plateau, a state that has lingering age-long ethnic and religious violence.
The prayer was preceded by the usual sermon before they observed the two rakah after which they offered prayers for Nigeria.
