Some angry residents of Kano State, have been captured in a video throwing stones at an helicopter said to be part of President Muhammadu Buhari’s convoy.

The residents took to the street on Monday to protest, during the visit of the President.

Buhari landed in Kano today for a two-day working visit and is expected to commission at least eight projects during the visit.

On arrival, the president reportedly headed to Dala to commission the Dala Inland Dry Port project.

He was received in the Dala Local Government Area of Kano State in the company of some of his cabinet members and state government officials.

A video trending on social media captured Kano residents stoning a helicopter in Muhammadu Buhari’s convoy during the visit to the state.

The angry residents also took to the street to burn tyres and littered the roads with bricks.

This comes days after the state Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje asked Buhari to postpone his visit due to security issues that may arise from the hardship Nigerians are facing due to the Naira swap deadline and fuel scarcity.
