The traditional procession raised the slogan “We won’t stop until we win.” The protesters told BNR’s reporters that what the country needs is radical change.

Some perturbation was caused by an elderly man who demanded to be given the protest microphone to say he did not want resignations. He was escorted away from the protest, the BNT reports.
