Akpata called on would be protesters in the August 1, #EndBanGovernance to exercise their constitutional rights within the bounds of the law.

Olamide Akpata, the governorship candidate of Labour Party, LP, in the September 21, poll in Edo State has backed the planned nationwide protests.

Akpata called on would be protesters in the August 1, #EndBanGovernance to exercise their constitutional rights within the bounds of the law.

He took to X to back the protest and wrote:

"It is paramount to emphatically state that the right to peaceful assembly and free expression, including the right of citizens to protest, are fundamental rights enshrined in the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. As citizens of this great nation, we are not only entitled to exercise these rights but are indeed duty-bound to do so when circumstances necessitate. It is on this unshakeable constitutional foundation that I unequivocally support the right of the would-be protesters to assemble peacefully and articulate their grievances."
