..Kwarans refuse to join nationwide protest*
As of 12: 20 p.m. on Thursday, no one is currently at Metropolitan Square, Ilorin, to join the nationwide protest.
Earlier, about seven suspected members of #Tthe akeItBack movement came briefly for photo-ups and short interviews with the local press.
But they left unceremoniously after some minutes when no one joined them in solidarity.
Banks and shops are open, and traffic is going smoothly as residents are currently going about their normal businesses in Ilorin, the capital of Kwara State.
