August 01, (THEWILL) – As the nationwide anti-hunger protests rage on, protesters have set the Kano Office of the NCC on fire.
The demonstrators also looted the yet-to-be-commissioned building, located on State Road in the state capital.
Some of the protesting youths also attempted to enter the Government House but were promptly dispersed by security operatives.
Meanwhile, some youth groups have trooped to the streets of the city, chasing away hoodlums, who were looting shops and other commercial places.
Wearing face caps with “peace” inscriptions, the volunteering youths said they came out to prevent hoodlums from vandalising and looting properties during the protests.
They told newsmen that they would do their best to stop the burning and looting of people’s properties during the uprising.
