As Nigerians marched against hunger, security forces responded with gunshots and force, killing 22 .
Security forces say they used “appropriate” measures to quell violence during the protests.
Cost-of-living crisis that fueled the protests is the worst in a generation in this oil-rich and most populous African country.
Nigeria 's population of more than 210 million people are among the world’s hungriest, accounting for 10% of the global burden.
22 protesters have been killed across six states, mostly by the police, Amnesty ’s director Sanusi says.
Some who were hit by bullets were lucky to survive but with serious injuries.
Abubakar Aminu , 14 , still has a stray bullet stuck in his back because doctors said it is too deep into his body.
