Choose the option opposite in meaning to the underlined word(s).The proprietor accused Uche of silently acquiescing to the students' demands?

Answer Details

The opposite of "acquiescing" is "resisting." If Uche had been acquiescing, it means he had been agreeing or accepting the students' demands without objection. So, if the opposite is required, it means that Uche should have been resisting or opposing the students' demands.
