Security sources have disclosed that recent incidents of protesters wielding Russian flags in parts of Northern Nigeria were orchestrated by the Shi’ite Islamic group.

The flags, which have been prominently displayed during various protests in some northern states, have been condemned by President Bola Tinubu and Nigeria’s security chiefs.

Already, the State Security Service (SSS) has arrested several tailors in Kano involved in the mass production of these Russian flags.

The tailors, along with their sponsors, are currently undergoing interrogation as part of an ongoing investigation.

It was gathered that security agencies are actively working to address the political and social angles of the protests.

”Those flags being displayed at the protest grounds were coordinated by senior members of the Shi’ite group. We have it on good authority that they distributed the flags to the gullible youths.

”We are going after them and we will unravel them in due course. Such actions will not be tolerated in this country,” a security source told Politics Nigeria reporter in Abuja today.
