Suspected thugs have come out to threaten residents of Lagos state not to join the August 1 to 10 hardship protest.

In a video that has gone viral, the suspected thugs whose faces couldn’t be captured, could be heard warning market women and men to desist from the planned protest as it might lead to more destruction than that witnessed in the #EndSARS protest.

“Anybody that is confident should come out on Thursday to protest. Are you the only one hungry? If you dare come out for the protest, you will be mercilessly dealt with,” the men in the video warned.
