Kaduna: Resident Shot At By Soldier For Being Outside During Tuesday Curfew

A man was seen to be shot at by a soldier in Kaduna amid the ongoing curfew in the state.

In a video posted on X by @tinted_graphix on Tuesday, an unarmed man was seen being pursued by a soldier before the man stopped. The soldier then shot at the ground just in front of the man. The video does not show what happened afterwards.

The Kaduna State Security Council announced a curfew in the state effective from Tuesday after the nationwide #EndBadGovernance protest escalated in the state.

The protesters are demanding that the government tackle the high cost of commodities in the country. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu gave a speech on Sunday in response to the protests, urging citizens to embrace dialogue. But protests have continued in some parts of the country.
