They demanded an end to the attacks that have claimed the lives of over 100 people in Bokkos and Bassa Local Government Areas within the last two weeks.
Most of the attackers are believed to be armed men suspected to be Fulani militants.
The protesters said they were tired of living in fear and could no longer keep quiet while their communities were being attacked.
They called on the government to take action before the situation gets worse.
Many of them also urged security agencies to do more to protect lives and properties in the state.
