Professor Udenta Udenta has however stated that Nigerians have the right to engage in a peaceful protest which according to him is part of democracy, and that as Tinubu and others would be sworn in on May 29, millions of Nigerians can protest to express their displeasure, so long as they don’t have arms and are doing so peacefully in accordance of the law.

As people will be sworn in on May 29, millions of Nigerians have right to protests wherever they are as long as they don’t have arms and are doing it peacefully, as the law provides.”
