Human rights lawyer, Femi Falana has said the presidency has no power to stop the planned protest by aggrieved Nigerians who are calling for the replacement of the service chiefs.

Falana was responding to a statement by presidential spokesperson, Garba Shehu that condemned the planned protest accusing the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party of sponsoring the march. 

While responding to a statement credited to a presidential spokesperson, Garba Shehu, Falana said Nigerians have the fundamental right to demonstrate for or against the Federal Government.

He said the statement shows that the presidency is opposed to protests against the government.

Falana said the call for the resignation of the service chiefs is justifiable.

Nyesom wike, asks president buhari to warn apc national chairman, adams oshiomhole, to stop making inflammatory remarks.

Rivers state governor, Nyesom Wike, has called on the federal government to warn the apc national chairman, Adams Oshiomhole, to stop making inflammatory remarks capable of destabilizing the country.

In a statement by his spokesman, Simeon Nwakaudu, the governor slammed Oshiomole for saying there would be no swearing-in of any governor in Bayelsa state.

Governor Wike, who was reacting to the judgment of the supreme court which sacked the apc governorship candidate, David Lyon, as the governor-elect of Bayelsa state, insisted that Oshiomhole has no such powers to make the remarks.
