Memorial protest in Nigeria's capital a year after bloody crackdown

Description

Under heavy police watch, Nigerians protest at the Unity fountain in Abuja to mark a year after security forces violently suppressed mass protests against police brutality and bad governance. Last year's #EndSARS rallies began over brutality by the SARS police unit but snowballed into protests over bad governance in the largest mass demonstrations in Nigeria's modern history. IMAGES
