2face shifts proposed mass protest against govt by 24hrs

A day after releasing a time-table for a proposed nationwide mass protest aimed at forcing the government of the day to either perform or relinquish power, the planned demonstration has now been shifted by 24 hours.

Reports say the nationwide protest was shifted to the 6th of February to coincide with the resumption date of President Muhammadu Buhari who is currently on a 10-day medical vacation in the United Kingdom and is expected back on Monday February 6, 2017.
