Akpabio Speaks On Sponsors Of Nationwide Protest

Senate President Godswill Akpabio has accused the candidates who lost in the 2023 presidential election of sponsoring the planned nationwide protest.

Mr. Akpabio made this statement on Monday at the State House in Abuja after witnessing President Bola Tinubu sign the new minimum wage bill into law.

Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Peter Obi of the Labour Party, Omoyele Sowore of the African Action Congress (AAC), and others ran against President Tinubu in the election.

Various individuals and organizations in the country have planned a nationwide protest over the hardships caused by the economic policies of the Tinubu administration. The protest is scheduled for August 1 and 10.

The Senate President, however, stated that those who lost the election believe they can use the protest to reclaim the mandate through the back door.

“People who probably do not have their fortunes in the 2023 election are thinking they can come through the back door, and that will amount to anarchy,” Mr Akpabio said.
