Human rights activist, Omoyele Sowore, has called for mass protests and demonstrations in the northern region against the government of President Muhammadu Buhari, which he described as incompetent.
Sowore said Buhari’s ineptitude has led to bloodletting in the northern region and nationwide.

The activist, in a tweet on Sunday, said Nigerians must rise and reject the inefficiency of the Buhari regime, as well as mobilise for mass protests.
He said, “#NorthIsBleeding…I am calling on everyone to ensure no more lives are lost due to @MBuhari’s incompetence/wickedness. Please join in participating, supporting & ensuring we put an end to bloodletting across Nigeria particularly in the northern parts #securenorth #revolutionnow.”
SaharaReporters had on Friday reported that using the hashtag #NorthIsBleeding, some Nigerians from the Northern part of the country took to Twitter, a microblogging and social networking service, to demand Buhari’s resignation over his failure to combat increasing insecurity in the region.
They also condemned Buhari’s visit to Lagos for a book launch and the inauguration of some projects a few days after bandits killed and burnt dozens of travellers in Sokoto State.
Below are Twitter comments about the protest:
The North has failed the North. We did this to ourselves. From our leaders who have so far been selfish, to us the citizens who have allowed ourselves to be deceived by both scholars and politicians. Everyone is mute now!!! #NorthIsBleeding

Buhari has no single element of empathy & he surrounded himself with likeminded people.
But on the other hand, how can we have 360 HRM,109 Senators and no single one among them could raised an impeachment motion against the President for all this incompetence.#NorthIsBleeding

While we are mourning the arson killing of tens of poor passengers in Sokoto state, the Nigerian President, @MBuhari of @OfficialAPCNg is in Lagos attending a book launch of a political ally. Zero empathy for the people. Crass irresponsibility of a leader. #NorthIsBleeding
