The protesters, clad in black t-shirts and Jeans, had gathered at the Port Harcourt Pleasure Park as early as 8 am.
The protesters were initially prevented from going ahead with their plan by police officers who were stationed at the take-off point (Pleasure Park) on the grounds.
Many of them condemned the recent killings of youths in Port Harcourt, including a musician popularly known as Sleek, by operatives of the Anti-Kidnapping Unit.
