Fadama Guys planned to stage a protest yesterday, being Monday the 14th August, 2018 for the delay in the disbursement of funds which were supposed to be for GUYS to startup their different farming businesses as sponsored by the World Bank.
Report showed that the police prevailed to shelve the protest due to the tense political atmosphere in the country now, so the youths were stopped in order not to be tagged political and against the govt. or sponsored by the opposition to further cast the govt. in bad light.
