Demonstrations are taking place in major cities across the country with some protesters chanting: “We are hungry” In Kano , the gunshots were fired after protesters set alight tyres to make a bonfire in front of the state governor’s house.

The protests have been organised via social media and inspired by the recent success of protesters in Kenya who forced the government to scrap plans to increase taxes.

Police have also sprayed hot water on the crowds in Kano but they remain on the streets.
