“What will be my offence? - Lai Mohammed rubbishes calls for his arrest by Chief Edwin Clark

The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, has rubbished calls for his arrest and prosecution by Chief Edwin Clark.

 

 

The minister stated this on Wednesday, April 12, in London while reacting to the call by Elder statesman and leader of the Pan Niger Delta Forum, Chief Edwin Clark, that he should be arrested and prosecuted for spreading “fake news” about Peter Obi.

 

“What will be my offence? Is it by chiding vice presidential candidate of the Labour Party who said on live television that if the President-elect Bola Tinubu is sworn-in on May 29 that that would be the end of democracy in Nigeria?

 

“Is it for chiding him for saying that swearing in Tinubu in May 29 is like swearing-in the military?

 

“What is the fake news in that?” the minister queried.

 

He said Baba-Ahmed had never denied his statement made on the live television.

 

Mohammed also said that Obi had also not publicly called his running mate to order over the treasonable utterances.

 

“The position of the law is clear that anybody who is aggrieved over election results should go to court

 

“It is not to start threatening Nigerians and heating up the polity simply because you lost an election,” he said.

 

Mohammed stressed that the APC won the presidential election “fair and square” and INEC was right in declaring Tinubu the winner.

 

He reassured Nigerians and the international community that the president-elect would be sworn in on May 29.
