“I Don’t Know Why I’m Protesting, They Just Asked Us to Support Sen. Akpabio” – Woman Confesses at Rally

A pro-Akpabio protest took an unexpected turn when a participant admitted she had no idea why she was demonstrating. Speaking to journalists at the scene, the unidentified woman candidly stated:

“I don’t know why I’m protesting. They just asked us to support Sen. Akpabio.”

Her statement has raised eyebrows, sparking questions about the organization and intent behind the rally. The protest, reportedly organized to show solidarity with Senate President Godswill Akpabio amid ongoing political tensions, drew a large crowd of supporters waving banners and chanting slogans.

However, the woman’s revelation has fueled speculation about whether the demonstrators were mobilized without a clear understanding of the cause they were advocating for.

Debate Over Political Mobilization

Critics have pointed to the incident as an example of how political protests in Nigeria are sometimes staged, with individuals allegedly recruited to swell the numbers without full awareness of the issues at stake. Opposition figures have seized on the moment to question the authenticity of the demonstration and its implications for political engagement.

Meanwhile, Akpabio’s supporters have downplayed the controversy, insisting that the rally was a genuine show of solidarity.

As reactions continue to pour in, neither the protest organizers nor relevant authorities have officially responded to the viral clip.
