Women in Rivers State on Friday staged a protest against the declaration of a state of emergency in the state.
The irate women described the emergency rule as a politically motivated move aimed at undermining democracy.
The women, led by Nancy Chidi Nwankwo, opposed the emergency rule, arguing that the situation in the state did not pose any genuine threat to national security.
The women are demanding the immediate restoration of all democratic institutions in Rivers State, including the reinstatement of the elected governor, Siminalayi Fubara.
The protesters condemned what they described as an unconstitutional imposition of military rule disguised as a state of emergency, calling it unjustified and unacceptable.
The group also appealed to respected Nigerians, including former presidents and diplomats, to intervene and urge President Bola Tinubu to reverse what they termed a grave injustice.
The women reaffirmed their commitment to peaceful resistance, vowing to continue their stand in defense of freedom, justice and self-determination.
