Security operatives on Saturday disrupted with tear gas canisters the peaceful June 12 protest.
The protesters, who assembled demanded an end to what they called ‘bad governance’.
The police were already positioned at the various venues before the protesters marched into the park.
The protesters brandished different placards with inscriptions including, “Buhari must go”, “Revert electricity tariff now”, “End Bad Government”.
The video that went viral on social media showed how security agents harassed, brutalised and arrested peaceful protesters.
