Natacha Akide professionally known as Tacha, is set lead a protest today in Port Harcourt, backing the #ENDSARS movement and end to police brutality in the state.
Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, issued an ultimatum on Monday, restricting intending protesters from marching round the South South region, owing to the fact that the Special Anti Robbery Squad has already been dissolved.
The reality TV star issued a statement on Twitter, disclosing that citizens have a right to protest in their country and shouldn’t be denied their civil rights as citizens.
Tacha, who is a Port Harcourt native tweeted that the planned protests would kickoff at 9am, and they would march in routes including: RUMUOLA, GRA, WATERLINES, GARRISON, ISAAC BORO PARK, GOV HOUSE and HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY.
