Armed with placards bearing messages in Hausa, he marched along the Farwa-Marriri axis of the Maiduguri highway, his voice ringing out against the suffocating grip of poverty.
“The anguish is unbearable; we must make our voices heard.
It’s our fundamental right to express our discontent,” the elderly man declared, his words echoing the desperation of a people pushed to the brink.
