The Coalition for Parliamentary Democracy (CPD) has blamed the ongoing protests over economic hardships on the Senate President, Senator Godswill Akpabio, saying he must be held responsible if Nigeria fails.
The group alleged that the statement credited to Senator Akpabio wherein he declared that Nigerians can be protesting while they that are in government are eating spiked the protests that had just started when he commented.

According to the group’s National Coordinator, Dr Menike Johnson, the reckless utterance of Akpabio angered the youths who then alleged that the federal government is uncaring, inconsiderate, and detached from Nigerians.
The CPD further noted that Akpabio’s statement portrayed him as one with an agenda that is different from what President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is preaching. “Only this can account for his public opinion that Nigerians can be protesting while they in government are eating.”
