Seven mass transit buses were burnt in Potiskum, the headquarters of Potiskum Local Government Area of Yobe State amid the #EndBadGovernance nationwide protests.

The buses were set ablaze on the premises of the local government secretariat in Potiskum today, reports Channels TV.

An eyewitness told our correspondent in the North-East state that some persons came in their numbers to cause mayhem but were quickly prevented by the security personnel.

The spokesman for the Yobe State Police Command, Dungus Abdulkarim, confirmed the incident at Potiskum, saying the perpetrators will be brought to book.

Propagated on social media, the nationwide protests against economic hardship started today, Thursday, August 1, 2024, and is scheduled to stretch till August 10 across all states of the Federation as well as the nation’s capital Abuja.
