A clampdown by Nigerian security forces on protests against high living costs in Africa’s most-populous nation has left at least 13 people dead.
Crowds chanting “we are hungry” marched through the streets of several cities on Thursday, and a 24-hour curfew was imposed in the northern Kano, Borno and Yobe states after the demonstrations turned violent. Protesters gathered in small numbers in the capital Abuja, the commercial hub of Lagos and the town of Port Harcourt in Rivers State on Friday morning.
