Pictures from the National Day Of Mourning across Nigeria.

Nigerian activists across the country today marked  today, May 28 as a National day of mourning over the widespread and incessant killings in Nigeria. Several states including Benue, Taraba and Zamfara have been hit by persistent violence caused by Killer herdsmen and others caused by armed bandits.
Tired of the Federal government’s  inability to curb the violence and current killings, activists today  took to the streets of Lagos and Abuja to draw attention to the state of affairs in Nigeria, with the hope that more urgent and effective action will be taken.
Notable Nigerians who supported this campaign include ,Prof Chidi Odinkalu,Dr Oby Ezekwesili,Bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Sokoto, Mathew Hassan Kukah ,Tuface Idibia,Co-founder of BudgIT, Oluseun Onigbinde.
