Turkish citizens resident in Nigeria, on Thursday, protested in Abuja, calling for support for President Tayyip Erdogan who survived a coup attempt on July 15.

The protest was organised by two groups – Musiyad and Little Turkey Nigeria.

As they marched, the protesters waved Turkish flags and sang songs of solidarity in praise of President Erdogan.

The protesters, about a hundred, embarked on a peaceful procession from the popular Abuja parade ground, near the magnificent International Conference Centre to the Turkish embassy located on Diplomatic Drive, near the Nigeria’s Ministry of Defence.
