A group of people under the aegis of Coalition of FCT Indigenous Groups have staged a protest at the National Assembly in Abuja.

The protesters on Thursday condemned the killing of one Hamza Haruna allegedly by security operatives in the nation’s capital.

In a letter addressed to the Senate President, Bukola Saraki, the groups alleged that the belongings of Abuja indigenes were being robbed.
