Oby Ezekwesili, a former Minister of Education, has responded to Festus Keyamo, Minister of State for Labour and Employment, who filed a petition calling for the arrest of Peter Obi, the Labour Party LP Presidential Candidate, and his vice, Datti Baba-Ahmed, for remarks he described as incendiary and capable of inciting rebellion.
According to Keyamo, the duo has been hopping from one media house to the other since the declaration of the Presidential election results, making incendiary comments and claims about the declaration of the President-elect by the Independent National Electoral Commission INEC.
Oby Ezekwesili asked on Twitter if the country was a joke.
She wrote:
“I saw a ludicrous piece of nonsense by a Minister in the @NigeriaGov of @NGRPresident @MBuhari , stoking the embers of destabilization of Nigeria by goading and inciting @OfficialDSSNG to arrest the @NgLabour Presidential Candidate and his VP. Is Nigeria a Comedy to you folks?
Let me tell @OfficialDSSNG @NigeriaGov @NGRPresident and the leaders of the ruling Party @OfficialAPCNg about a very wise saying of our neighbors, the Ghanaians: If no one advises you, advise yourself. A word is sufficient to prevent foolishness.”
