The trend started last week in a few places where protests were held, but by Monday, the number of those waving the flags increased by a wide margin.

The development comes after President Bola Tinubu warned protesters against being used to promote an unconstitutional agenda.

“Let us work together to build a brighter future for ourselves and for generations to come. Let us choose hope over fear, unity over division, and progress over stagnation. The economy is recovering; Please, don’t shut out its oxygen. Now that we have been enjoying democratic governance for 25 years, do not let the enemies of democracy use you to promote an unconstitutional agenda that will set us back on our democratic journey. Forward ever, backwards never!” he had said

On Monday, the police cracked down on a tailor in Kano, including some of the youths using the flag to protest.
